Jouw kerntaken

Automation design en programmering

Je creëert en configureert PLC-, SCADA-, DCS- en HMI-oplossingen die industriële processen sturen en optimaliseren.

Systeemintegratie en testen

Je brengt machines, sensoren en software samen in één efficiënt systeem en voert FAT, SAT en commissioning uit om alles foutloos te laten lopen.

Cross-functionele samenwerking

Je werkt nauw samen met elektro-, mechanica-, proces- en IT-teams om automatisatie af te stemmen op operationele doelstellingen.

Automation engineers vormen de brug tussen machines en intelligentie. Wanneer zij een proces optimaliseren, draait de hele fabriek beter en veiliger.

Veelgestelde vragen

Moet ik sterke ervaring met PLC-programmering hebben om te starten?

Niet noodzakelijk. Veel rollen aanvaarden een technische bachelor (of master) met basisautomatisatiekennis en leergierigheid. Instapfuncties bevatten vaak on-the-job training in PLC en SCADA/visualisatiesystemen.

Welke programmeertalen, platforms of tools moet ik kennen?

Gebruikelijke platforms zijn Siemens TIA Portal/Step 7, Beckhoff TwinCAT, Rockwell/Allen-Bradley, en SCADA/HMI-systemen, communicatieprotocollen (zoals PROFINET, EtherCAT, Modbus). Kennis van regeltechniek, I/O-mapping en motion control is een plus, net als ervaring met robotics of vision systems.

Werk ik enkel op kantoor of ook ter plaatse?

Beiden. Engineering en programmeren gebeuren op kantoor, maar je bezoekt sites voor testen, commissioning en troubleshooting bij live-gang van systemen.

In welke industrieën kan ik werken?

Je kan aan de slag in farma, chemie, food & beverage, automotive, energie, infrastructuur en vele andere sectoren. Automatisatiekennis is overal waardevol.
