Your new company is a globally recognised leader in the design, manufacture, installation, and commissioning of ground support equipment (GSE). With a rich history dating back to the 1960s, the company has evolved into a premier manufacturer, driven by a commitment to innovation, sustainability, and excellence. Headquartered in Northern Ireland and with a manufacturing facility in Georgia, the company employs over 400 dedicated professionals.

Your new role as a PLC Control Engineer will involve leading the full software development lifecycle, from design and development to testing and improvement of software solutions. You will develop PLC software control systems, create technical documentation, and provide mentoring and technical direction to the development team. Your role will also include developing solutions to meet customer requirements, working on R&D projects to expand the product range, and assuring product quality by designing electrical testing methods. Additionally, you will maintain your product and company reputation by complying with regulations and contribute to team efforts by accomplishing related results as needed.

You will also benefit from discounted high street, gym membership, and insurance, long service awards, social events, a cycle to work and tech scheme, on-site parking, and an early finish on Fridays. This role offers a fantastic opportunity to develop your career with a leading-edge company in a wide range of industries.
