Job Title: Controls Engineer / PLC Programmer

Electrical Panel Design & Automation Programming | 5–10 Years Experience

Job Overview

We are seeking an experienced Controls Engineer / PLC Programmer to join our growing automation engineering team. This role owns the electrical design of custom automation systems end-to-end — from control panel design, component selection, and bill of materials (BOM) generation through electrical schematic creation, PLC and robot/cobot programming, panel build oversight, and on-site commissioning. You will work on custom equipment such as assembly line automation, PLC-controlled machinery, industrial robots, machine vision systems, and motion control for customers across a variety of industries.

Key Responsibilities

Electrical Design

· Design electrical control panels and generate panel layouts using electrical CAD software (e.g., AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, SOLIDWORKS Electrical).

· Create electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and one-line diagrams for custom automation equipment.

· Generate and maintain the bill of materials (BOM) for all electrical components.

· Select electrical components (PLCs, drives, sensors, safety devices, etc.) to meet system requirements and budget.

Programming & Integration

· Program PLCs (Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Omron, Mitsubishi, or equivalent) for custom machine control.

· Program and configure industrial robots/cobots for automated processes.

· Configure and program HMIs, VFDs, and servo drives.

· Integrate machine vision systems and industrial networks (EtherNet/IP, Profinet, Modbus, or similar).

Build, Commissioning & Support

· Oversee or perform wiring and assembly of control panels and custom automation equipment.

· Read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and panel layouts produced by self or others.

· Install, troubleshoot, test, and commission PLC-controlled machinery.

· Perform machine startup, FAT, SAT, and on-site commissioning.

· Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and software engineering teams throughout the project lifecycle.

· Ensure compliance with CSA electrical codes and machine safety standards.

· Prepare electrical documentation and commissioning reports.

· Travel occasionally for customer installations and technical support.

Required Qualifications

· 5–10 years of experience in industrial automation or machine building, including electrical panel design.

· Proven experience programming PLCs (not just troubleshooting) — Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Omron, Mitsubishi, or equivalent.

· Experience programming or integrating industrial robots/cobots.

· Experience with electrical CAD/schematic design software (e.g., AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, SOLIDWORKS Electrical).

· Experience generating BOMs and specifying electrical components for custom machinery.

· Strong ability to read and produce electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and engineering drawings.

· Experience wiring industrial control panels.

· Experience commissioning automated machinery.

· Excellent troubleshooting and communication skills.

· Ability to work independently and as part of a team.

· Industrial Electrician (442A / 309A) license.

Preferred Qualifications

· Experience with machine vision systems.

· HMI programming experience beyond basic configuration.

· Knowledge of servo motion control and machine safety systems (risk assessments, safety-rated devices).

· Experience across multiple PLC/robot platforms.

· Willingness to travel occasionally.

What We Offer

· Competitive salary and benefits — [$80,000–$110,000]

· Career growth opportunities

· Ownership of design work on cutting-edge robotics and industrial automation projects

· Supportive and collaborative engineering team

· Stable, full-time position

Pay: $80,000.00-$110,000.00 per year

Work Location: In person
