Automation Engineer
Are you an experienced automation engineer with solid PLC programming expertise? Are you looking for an opportunity where you can become an important part of a forward-thinking company? We now have an exciting opportunity for those who want to join IMH Machinery's continued journey forward. Read more about the position and who we are seeking!
Automation Engineer Role
In your role as an automation engineer with us, you will have a varied workday. Your position will include:
• PLC programming
• Performing electrical installations, commissioning, and capacity testing at our factory in Kopparberg and at our customer sites
• Preparing and ordering electrical components (designing electrical cabinets to be produced by IMH or selected suppliers)
• Customer support (phone, computer, or on-site)
• Participating in projects involving new product development, phasing out, or changes to product lines, including associated equipment
• Product testing and demonstration
• Performing service and upgrade jobs at our existing customer sites
Initially, you will need to be on-site in Kopparberg, where you'll have the opportunity to learn our machines and systems by directly working with them in production. Once you've built up this understanding, you can gradually work more remotely. Geographic location is therefore less important, as long as you are flexible about coming to the factory when needed.
The position involves travel to our customers in Sweden and Europe, approximately 30-50 nights per year. New installations are typically planned three months in advance, while urgent jobs are scheduled as soon as possible in consultation with your immediate supervisor.
What do we offer?
You'll have the opportunity to become an important part of our continued journey forward. We are a progressive company with an open culture and short decision-making processes. We offer wellness benefits, have a collective agreement (Technology Agreement), and shortened working hours.
Who are we looking for?
To succeed in this role, we seek a solution-oriented team player who understands the importance of collaboration. With several years of experience in PLC programming, you feel confident in your knowledge but maintain a humble attitude and willingness to develop professionally. You are service-minded and able to communicate both internally and externally, both verbally and in writing, and value good relationships. While we place great value on your actual experience, your personality, attitude, and drive will be crucial to us.
