Senior PLC Engineer - Automation & Commissioning

ABOUT THE ROLE

Own the electrical and software side of automated machinery, from panel build through to production handover. You will be the on-site technical point of contact for PLC logic, HMI, robotics and vision integration - writing the control logic, proving it on the machine, and getting the line to run reliably. This is a hands-on site role: expect equal time at the laptop and at the panel.

The position is on Syntek Automation LLP payroll, deployed in office at client premises in Krishnagiri, Tamil Nadu. You will report to Syntek's Technical Lead through a weekly online review, with day-to-day coordination at the client site.
