The position offers an exciting opportunity to work with cutting-edge technologies including PLC/DCS systems, HMI interfaces, and industrial automation equipment. You'll be responsible for leading technical hardware and software design initiatives, coordinating with cross-functional teams, and maintaining direct client relationships.

The ideal candidate brings 10+ years of relevant experience and deep expertise in industrial control systems, particularly Rockwell platforms, machine vision integration, and electrical system design. A Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent combination of education and experience is required, with a PE license being a plus.
