Job description

Process Automation Software Engineer

Peterborough Full time Hybrid (£48,750 per annum) plus overtime

Following continued growth and new contract awards, my client is seeking a Process Automation Software Engineer

Write the code that runs real plants.

If you love Rockwell platforms and want to see your work go live on site, this is the role. Our client delivers control and automation solutions across a wide range of industries, from minor upgrades to full turnkey systems and we want a Process Automation Software Engineer to help us build them.

You’ll be involved from quotation through to commissioning, working directly with customers and taking responsibility for your own project deliverables. This is the kind of role where you start with a customer requirement and finish with a system running in the field.

Why this role

• Hands-on development: You’ll write PLC and SCADA applications and see them working in the real world.
• The full journey: Specification, software, testing and commissioning, all in one role.
• Real exposure: Work across different industries with a team that supports your growth.
• A voice: You’ll be a key representative of the business, not a pair of hands.

What you’ll do

• Develop PLC and SCADA software applications
• Work from customer URS documents to create functional design specifications
• Test and commission project deliverables on site
• Make sure designs comply with regulations and customer specifications
• Deliver your design and engineering tasks on time and to a high standard
• Work to our QHSE policies, procedures and standards, and support your colleagues

What you’ll bring

• An electrical engineering degree or apprenticeship
• 4+ years of Rockwell Allen-Bradley ControlLogix experience
• 4+ years of FactoryTalk View SE experience
• Experience working to ISO 9001, 14001, 27001 and 45001
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office
