The Opportunity
We are looking for PLC / Automation Engineers to support a live industrial automation troubleshooting project in Italy .
The key requirement is strong hands-on experience with Siemens PLCs and TIA Portal , with Omron experience considered an advantage.
This is a production support and troubleshooting-focused assignment , rather than a greenfield programming project. You will be responsible for investigating live automation issues, analysing PLC logic, identifying root causes and recommending corrective actions to improve equipment reliability and production performance.
If you enjoy getting hands-on with complex machinery, diagnosing faults and solving real production problems, this could be an excellent opportunity.
What You'll Be Doing
- Troubleshoot Siemens PLC-controlled production equipment
- Use TIA Portal for online diagnostics and fault finding
- Analyse existing PLC logic, sequences and interlocks
- Investigate recurring equipment faults, stoppages and downtime
- Diagnose issues across PLC software, electrical systems, sensors, drives, instrumentation and communications
- Troubleshoot automated machinery and production lines
- Identify bottlenecks, intermittent faults and reliability issues
- Perform detailed root-cause analysis
- Recommend corrective actions and technical improvements
- Create clear action plans outlining issues, priorities and recommended solutions
- Support the implementation and testing of corrective actions
- Work closely with production, maintenance and engineering teams
- Document technical findings and any software changes
The core requirement is the ability to systematically diagnose
