Overview
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 end-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.
Responsibilities
Key elements of the role include:
PLC, HMI and control system configuration and development
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
Producing technical documentation and supporting customer training
Qualifications
2+ years of hands-on experience with Rockwell Automation technology (PLC, HMI, Studio 5000, Factory Talk, etc.)
Background in industrial automation, controls, or systems integration
Engineering degree (electrical, automation, mechatronics, computer or similar)
Comfortable working on-site during commissioning phases
Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset
EU / Irish citizen.
Unfortunately, they cannot sponsor a candidate
Benefits
Join a globally established automation specialist with long-term stability
Be part of a young, growing Ireland team with real influence and visibility
Exposure to varied industries rather than being tied to a single site
Clear development path, mentoring, and accelerated career progression
Opportunity to work on complex, technically interesting projects
If you're an automation engineer with Rockwell experience who wants more responsibility, faster progression, and the chance to help build something locally, feel free to message me directly.
