## Description

We are looking for an Automation & integration Engineer to join an established technical applications team, working on the development and delivery of advanced automation and sensor-based solutions for manufacturing customers.
This is a hands-on technical role, ideal for someone with a background in automation, system integration, machine vision, robotics, controls or applications engineering.
You will take projects from the initial application requirement through to solution design, testing, installation, commissioning and customer handover, working across sensors, robotics, automation, controls and software interfaces.
The Role
You will be responsible for developing complete technical solutions for manufacturing, inspection, measurement and automation applications.
Key responsibilities will include:
·Developing automation solutions using 2D and 3D sensor technologies.
·Translating customer requirements into practical system concepts, including sensor selection, mounting, measurement strategy, control interfaces and commissioning.
·Designing, building and testing proof-of-concept demonstrations, trial systems and customer-specific solutions.
·Integrating sensors with PLCs, robots, machine control systems, industrial PCs, HMIs and data acquisition systems.
·Carrying out installation, setup, calibration, commissioning, troubleshooting and optimisation at customer sites.
·Working closely with technical and sales teams to assess feasibility and define project requirements.
·Producing technical documentation including system descriptions, test reports, commissioning notes and handover documentation.
·Supporting customer demonstrations, trials, exhibitions and application testing.
·Providing post-installation technical support and fault finding.
