• Carry out root cause analysis and implement improvements
• Assist with upgrades and commissioning
• Maintain documentation and provide clear shift handovers

Requirements

• Strong industrial electrical experience (3-phase, control systems)
• PLC fault-finding experience (Siemens/Mitsubishi preferred)
• Experience with drives (VFD/servo systems)
• Basic hydraulics knowledge
• Ability to read electrical schematics
• Manufacturing or heavy industry background

Desirable

• HNC/HND in Electrical/Controls/Mechatronics (or equivalent)
