PLC Programming Lead (Male)

Education

• Diploma/Degree in Electrical, Electronics, Instrumentation, or Mechatronics Engineering.

Responsibilities

The PLC Programming Lead will be responsible for leading the development and execution of PLC, HMI, and SCADA programs for new and existing automation projects. The role involves hands-on programming, supervising junior programmers, providing technical support, coordinating with design and sales teams, and managing all data and backup related to PLC systems.

1. Programming & Development

• Develop and commission PLC, HMI, and SCADA applications for custom-built machines.
• Design logic for machine control, motion, and process automation.
• Develop and debug Mitsubishi PLC and servo systems with various communication protocols (e.g., Ethernet/IP, Modbus TCP, RS-485, CC-Link, etc.).
• Implement

  data logging, graph generation, and trend monitoring

  functions in automation systems.
• Integrate

  industrial printers, barcode scanners, and vision systems

  with PLC/HMI.
• Design and manage

  recipe creation systems

  ,

  number system conversions

  , and

  analog signal scaling

  for sensors and actuators.
• Develop communication links with

  servers and MES/ERP systems

  for data transfer and reporting.

2. Team Leadership & Coordination

• Allocate PLC/HMI-related tasks to junior programmers and monitor their progress.
• Review and validate programs developed by team members to ensure quality and standardization.
• Provide training, technical guidance, and troubleshooting support to the automation team.

3. Project Coordination

• Collaborate with design and sales teams to give automation inputs for upcoming projects.
• Coordinate with project, electrical, and mechanical departments to ensure smooth PLC integration.
• Ensure all

  MOM (Minutes of Meeting)

  points related to PLC scope are addressed and closed on time.

4. Data & Documentation Management

• Maintain complete

  data backups

  of PLC, HMI, and SCADA programs.
• Manage version control, documentation of control logic, and system wiring references.
• Prepare program archives and change logs for project handovers.

5. Support & Troubleshooting

• Provide onsite and remote support during installation, commissioning, and after-sales service.
• Troubleshoot automation-related issues in PLCs, HMIs, servo drives, and communication networks.

Mandatory Technical Expertise

• Mitsubishi PLC and Servo Programming (FX, Q, or iQ-R series).
• Experience with multiple communication protocols:

  Ethernet/IP, Modbus TCP/RTU, CC-Link, RS-232/RS-485.

• Data logging and graph generation in HMI/SCADA systems.
• Integration of

  industrial printers and barcode scanners.

• Recipe management, analog scaling, and numeric data conversions.
• Server communication and integration (e.g., SQL, FTP, OPC, or TCP-based systems).
