Junior IT
Pubblicato il 09-10-2026 - newcleo in Italia
Newcleo is looking for a motivated junior engineer who wants to grow as a bridge between the classic OT world (control systems, instrumentation, real-time hardware) and the IT world (infrastructure, data, cybersecurity). Comfortable learning and applying LabVIEW-based control/real-time programming as the main platform, while also working with standard PLC systems (Siemens, Elsist) present in the plant, plus HMI/SCADA application development (Ignition), under the guidance of senior engineers. A medium-level general IT competence that allows them to also cover basic first-line IT support tasks is expected.
Detail-oriented, methodical, and reliable, with a strong willingness to learn from more senior colleagues and to act as the day-to-day link between OT engineers/OEMs on one side and IT infrastructure staff on the other. Effective communicator, positive attitude, hands‑on approach, and enthusiasm for the job are qualities we look for in the candidate.
The candidate will support the design, development, testing, and commissioning of control/real‑time applications — primarily in LabVIEW,
alongside standard PLC platforms (Siemens, Elsist) used across the plant — and of HMI/SCADA screens for newcleo's industrial and laboratory assets, working under the supervision of the IT/OT Integration Lead. Act as a junior bridge between the OT domain (control systems, field instrumentation, real‑time hardware) and the IT domain (infrastructure, networking, basic data flow), helping the two worlds communicate on day‑to‑day technical matters.
Main activities
- PLC programming: Develop and maintain control logic and real‑time applications primarily in LabVIEW / LabVIEW Real‑Time (e.g. on NI CompactRIO or equivalent platforms). Standard PLC platforms are also present across the plant: Siemens (TIA Portal, IEC 61131‑3) and Elsist. Contributing to and maintaining logic on these systems is also part of the role.
- HMI/SCADA development: Build and maintain SCADA applications primarily on Ig
