• Develop and maintain robust automation architectures that align precisely with project goals and technical specifications
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams—including mechanical, electrical, and software engineers—to ensure seamless system integration
• Provide hands-on support during commissioning and testing phases, both in laboratory settings and on-site at customer facilities
• Manage and contribute to multiple concurrent projects, ensuring timely delivery, quality assurance, and effective issue resolution
• Act as a technical point of contact for resolving complex challenges in mechatronic systems and automation workflows
• Stay current with the latest industry standards, tools, and emerging technologies in the field of industrial automation

Your education & experience

• You have a solid technical background, ideally with a degree in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, or computer science
• You bring at least 4 years of experience in PLC software development and have hands-on knowledge of platforms such as Beckhoff TwinCAT, B&R, Siemens TIA Portal, or similar

• You have experience working in agile environments and are familiar with tools like Git and Jira for planning and delivering incremental results
• You work independently and demonstrate strong technical leadership. You document your work thoroughly, from detailed requirements to clear and concise release notes
• You bring broad experience in engineering. While your main focus is on PLC programming, knowledge in other areas of software engineering – such as databases, web applications, or programming languages like C, C#, C++ – is a plus
• You have excellent communication skills in both German and English, written and spoken

What’s in it for you

• Imagine working in an environment that helps move the company to the next level, where your passion, values, and skills are integral to impacting the sheet metal industry and beyond. At Bystronic, this can become your reality. Our people are the edge to drive and nurture our ambitions and continued success.
