We’re a supportive and friendly team that thrives on innovation, problem-solving, and celebrating success together.

The Role

We’re looking for an Electrical Design & PLC Controls Engineer to join our talented mechanical and electrical design team. This is a varied role that combines electrical hardware design with PLC programming, giving you the opportunity to work on both new product development and support for existing machines. You’ll work independently, with minimal supervision, in a fast-paced environment where no two projects are the same.

What You’ll Do

Produce detailed electrical designs and documentation using AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, or similar software.
Develop single-line diagrams, wiring schematics, and control panel layouts.
Specify and select electrical equipment in line with project requirements.
Ensure compliance with relevant electrical standards and regulations.
Ensure compliance with functional safety and industry standards.
Develop PLC code from customer specifications.
Program, test, commission, and troubleshoot PLC and HMI software (using PLCs XG5000 and XP-Builder).
Design and configure electrical hardware and control systems to meet project requirements.
Ensure rigorous testing of safety-related aspects of PLC and electrical systems.
Create HMI interfaces following company standards.
Work with software and machine learning engineers to integrate PLCs, HMIs, backend software, and vision systems.
Support R&D and ongoing product development.
Collaborate with electricians and technicians during production and installation.
Liaise with project management, engineering teams, and customers at a technical level.
Collaborate with clients and contractors to meet design specifications.
Participate in FAT (Factory Acceptance Tests) and SAT (Site Acceptance Tests).
Provide technical support during installation and commissioning phases.
Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues on-site with clients.

About You

Essential Skills & Experience:

2-3 years' experience in an industrial or commercial environment.
Proficiency with CAD software such as Solidworks, AutoCAD Electrical or EPLAN.
Electrical design experience — including control panel design, wiring diagrams, and hardware selection.
Strong understanding of system integration and UK electrical standards.
Experience in supporting installation and commissioning activities.
Excellent technical, analytical, and project coordination skills
Strong PLC programming skills (Ladder & Structured Text).
Full lifecycle PLC software development experience.
Excellent planning, problem-solving, and communication skills.
Able to work independently, with minimal supervision.
Experienced working under pressure to meet deadlines.

Desirable Skills & Experience:

A degree in Electrical Engineering or HNC/HND in Electrical/Electronic Engineering.

· Experienced with PLCs, HMIs, and XG5000 software.

Programming in C++ or Python.
Robotics, control systems, or embedded systems experience.
Basic mechanical design knowledge.
