* Data Utilisation: Use diagnostic tools and data collection to investigate anomalies and breakdowns, contributing to ongoing process improvements.
What You'll Bring:
* Minimum of ONC/HNC in Electrical, Controls, or Instrumentation disciplines.
* Strong theoretical and practical knowledge of electrical and control system hardware, automation software, and PLC, HMI, and drive design applications.
* Experience with Allen Bradley Control Systems is highly desirable.
* Understanding of hydraulic systems and how automation integrates with hydraulic systems is a plus
* Proficiency in Microsoft Office tools, including Excel, Word, and Project.
What We Offer:
* Competitive Salary based on experience.
