The Role

As a Senior Automation Technician , you'll play a key role in delivering industrial electrical, automation and control systems support to our customers.





This is a hands-on, trade-based automation role .

It is ideally suited to an experienced industrial electrician who has developed strong control systems and fault-finding capability and wants to continue progressing deeper into industrial automation.

Your work will include:

New control system installations and upgrades

Testing and commissioning of electrical and automation equipment

Working directly with customers to resolve critical operational issues

Supporting automation projects and continuous improvement initiatives

Identifying opportunities to improve plant reliability and performance

No two weeks will look exactly the same.

One week you may be diagnosing a PLC-controlled production issue, the next commissioning instrumentation on a new project, upgrading an existing control system or supporting a customer with an industrial breakdown.

If you enjoy fault-finding, variety and solving problems , you'll enjoy this role.

About You

You're an experienced electrical tradesperson who enjoys the technical side of industrial electrical work.

You're comfortable working independently, but you also enjoy being part of a team.

When equipment stops, you're the type of person who wants to understand why it stopped, find the fault and get it running properly again.

You communicate well with customers, take pride in the quality of your work and are always looking to improve your knowledge.

Ideally, you'll bring:

A-Grade Electrical Licence – essential

Minimum 3 years' experience in industrial electrical maintenance, service or automation

Exposure to SCADA, HMI, VSDs, instrumentation or industrial communications will be highly regarded

Strong diagnostic and problem-solving skills

Good communication skills when dealing with customers and other trades

A proactive, solutions-focused attitude

The ability to take ownership and see a problem through to completion

Most importantly, we're looking for someone with the right attitude, strong fundamentals and a genuine desire to keep learning.

You don't need to know every automation platform or technology on day one.

What's in It for You?

We want IoTics to be somewhere good people can build a long-term career.

You'll receive:

Competitive salary package

Fully maintained company vehicle

Company laptop and required tools

Ongoing technical training and professional development

Monthly team recognition

Quarterly off-site team events and challenges

Employee Assistance Program

You'll get the support and resources of an established engineering business while still having the opportunity to make a visible impact on the team around you.

Where Could This Role Take You?
