We probably don’t need to tell you that automation is the future. At Contec, we make it our mission to make industrial processes future-proof. We are in full growth and therefore constantly looking for new colleagues. Are you ready to build the factory of the future with us?

For our Manufacturing Control team, which is mainly occupied with PLC programming and visualization, we are currently looking for an Automation Engineer with a passion for automation.

Projects from A-Z, this is how we do it!

At Contec we realize projects from A to Z. As an Automation Engineer you are not only responsible for the technical aspect: communication with the customer and the start-up of a wide range of projects are also part of your duties.

• You work out a functional analysis (FDS) in which you analyze the client’s assignment (URD) ​​and find the most optimal solution for this.
• Then you get to work with the PLC programming and visualization (HMI interfaces). For this you use the customer’s standard or our own Contec Software Standard.
• You also ensure the connection and data exchange of the PLCs with parent systems. This in collaboration with the MOM / MES department.
• After preparation and internal tests at the office, we simulate everything together with the customer during a FAT. They are invited to our offices for this, but it can just as easily be done via remote sessions.
• Then you go on site at the customer to test your work in reality (SAT) and fine-tune it.
• A DDS, drawing up manuals and training for operators and technicians are also part of the job description.
• If the customer wishes, we also provide aftercare for the services we provided them.

You always do all this in close collaboration with your project coordinator and your team.

Passion for automation? We’re looking for you!

• You recently graduated in Engineering (preferably in Electromechanics) or you are equivalent through experience
• You are an initiator and autonomous working does not deter you.
• Working in a team? Yes please! Friends describe you as a real team player.
• You are a problem-solver and you think proactively about projects.
• You are an adventurer: learning new things and discovering the world together is what you want! At Contec, traveling is part of it, so it is important that you are open to this.
