At Intralox, one of the world's leading innovators in conveyance solutions, we are looking for an Automation Engineer (HMI & UX) to join our Controls Product Engineering Team and play a key role in improving the usability, consistency, and quality of our customer-facing automation software solutions. Why this role matters You'll join the Integration Smart Carryway (ISC) team, a subset of Controls Product Engineering. This team supports automation platforms that are expanding beyond our Activated Roller Belt (ARB ) equipment into areas such as spirals and water systems, with close collaboration between colleagues in Europe and the US. What makes this team different is the combination of automation engineering, software quality, and operator-facing design, all aimed at creating solutions that are not only reliable, but also intuitive and easy to use. Collaboration, curiosity, and continuous improvement are at the heart of how we work. As an Automation Engineer (HMI & UX), you'll help shape how customers and operators interact with our equipment through clear, consistent, and user-friendly HMI solutions. You'll improve the usability of operator-facing interfaces while also strengthening QA/QC practices, release readiness, and software lifecycle ownership. This is a great opportunity to build a growing capability and have visible impact on how Intralox automation solutions are experienced across platforms and regions. Job Responsibilities and Requirements What you'll do: * Develop and harmonize HMI standards, screen layouts, navigation structures, dashboards, and reusable templates to create a more intuitive and consistent user experience across equipment projects * Improve the usability and clarity of operator-facing interfaces to help customers and operators interact with equipment more effectively, with less training and less ambiguity * Test and validate automation software releases to ensure customer-facing updates improve functionality without negatively affecting existing systems * Build scalable QA/QC methods, documentation, and release-readiness processes to support reliable, repeatable, and high-quality software delivery * Support lifecycle ownership of software updates, feature releases, supplier changes, and obsolescence topics to help maintain sustainable and customer-relevant automation platforms over time * Work closely with automation engineers and cross-functional stakeholders in Europe and the US to solve issues structurally and support greater global platform consistency * Support code development in different software environments to contribute to stronger engineering practices and more robust automation deliverables across the organization ## Related Videos - [More efficient software for more efficient microchips](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1164-more-efficient-software-for-more-efficient-microchips) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) - [DevOps Maturity Check – a way to balance autonomy and alignment](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/58-devops-maturity-check-a-way-to-balance-autonomy-and-alignment) - [Git for Code Reviews](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/429-git-for-code-reviews) ## Related Articles - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [How to land a developer job in Amsterdam](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/36-how-to-land-a-developer-job-in-amsterdam) - [Best Companies in the Netherlands: Top 25 Companies in 2023 ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/193-best-companies-in-the-netherlands-top-25-companies-in-2023) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [How to Find Tech Jobs in Amsterdam](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/279-how-to-find-tech-jobs-in-amsterdam) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers)
