Are you a skilled PLC Software Engineer who enjoys creating tailored automation solutions from the ground up? Do you want to be part of a growing SME that designs and builds bespoke machinery for global clients across a variety of sectors?
This East Midlands based engineering business is looking for a hands-on, customer-facing PLC Software Engineer to join their expert team. Working on both standard and one-off projects, you’ll take ownership of software development from concept through to commissioning – including regular travel across Europe (up to 25%).
What You’ll Be Doing
* Developing PLC software from scratch for bespoke machinery (Siemens, Allen Bradley)
* Programming HMI and SCADA systems for intuitive, user-friendly machine interfaces
* Managing full project lifecycle – from concept, coding, testing to on-site commissioning
* Working closely with customers to understand and deliver tailored solutions
* Travelling across Europe (up to 25%) for installation, support, and commissioning
* Supporting integration of safety systems, CE marking, and regulatory compliance
* Collaborating with mechanical, electrical, and controls teams to deliver right-first-time solutions
What We’re Looking For
* Strong PLC programming experience – ideally with Siemens and/or Allen Bradley
* Experience with HMI/SCADA development
* Excellent problem-solving and communication skills – confident working with customers
* Willingness to travel internationally (Europe-based projects)
* Hands-on engineering mindset – this is not a desk-only role
* Any exposure to C#, Python, or machine safety/CE regulations is a strong plus
What’s on Offer
* £55,000 salary + travel allowance
* Varied, challenging projects with no two days the same
* Genuine ownership of your work and technical freedom
* Opportunity to travel and work directly with international clients
* Friendly, knowledgeable team in a business where your input matters
