I'm supporting a
global, independent automation systems integrator
with over
1,700 employees worldwide
as they continue to expand their operations in Ireland.
The business operates across multiple industries and is known internationally for delivering complex, high-quality automation projects. While well established globally, their
Ireland team is still in an early growth phase (c.20 engineers)
, offering a genuine opportunity to
get in early
, progress quickly, and help shape the local operation.
The role
As an Automation Engineer, you'll work as part of a project team delivering e
nd-to-end automation solutions, from design through to commissioning
. You'll be supported by senior engineers while gaining exposure to a wide range of industries and technologies.
Key elements of the role include:

* Participation in system and customer design reviews
* Factory and site acceptance testing
* On-site commissioning and start-up support
* Working closely with electrical, instrumentation, and panel build teams

* Comfortable working on-site during commissioning phases
* Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset

Why this opportunity stands out
* Join a
globally established automation specialist
with long-term stability

young, growing Ireland team
with real influence and visibility
