• Advise customers on system optimization, recommended maintenance practices, and spare parts management.

IT-Systems, Linux & Networking

• Navigate and debug smart modular controller units using Linux command-line interface (CLI) tools to inspect logs, perform software updates, and verify configurations.
• Diagnose TCP/IP networks, verifying subnet boundaries, IP assignments, gateway configurations, and local communication routing between modules.
• Collaborate closely with customers’ PLC programmers and network engineers to align system interfaces (EtherNet/IP, PROFINET), map data structures, and troubleshoot software handshakes.
• Support light PLC modifications, functional interface testing, and diagnostic tasks (no heavy custom programming required).

Electrical Diagnostics & Field Operations

• Perform systematic electrical diagnostics and low-voltage work (24VDC), including control cabinet troubleshooting, wiring verification, and fault isolation on-site.
• Deliver reliable field support for installations, mechanical validation, sensor calibrations, and system-level troubleshooting.
