Job description

PLC Programmer – Vision Systems Integration

We are seeking an experienced PLC Programmer to integrate machine vision systems with industrial PLC-controlled equipment. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience programming PLCs, configuring vision hardware, and establishing reliable communication between vision systems, PLCs, HMIs, and automated machinery.

Responsibilities

  • Develop, modify, test, and troubleshoot PLC programming for automated equipment.
  • Integrate machine vision cameras and inspection systems into PLC-controlled processes.
  • Configure communication between vision equipment and PLCs using industrial protocols such as EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, Modbus TCP, or similar networks.
  • Develop PLC logic for vision triggers, inspection results, pass/fail decisions, part tracking, and reject sequences.
  • Configure and troubleshoot industrial automation equipment, sensors, cameras, lighting, and I/O.
  • Perform controls integration, system commissioning, debugging, and production support.
  • Troubleshoot PLC logic, network communication, electrical controls, and vision inspection issues.
  • Optimize automated inspection sequences for reliability, cycle time, and production performance.
  • Work with engineering and manufacturing teams to validate equipment functionality and resolve controls-related issues.
  • Document PLC programs, system changes, communication architecture, and troubleshooting procedures.

Qualifications

  • Hands-on experience as a PLC Programmer, Controls Engineer, Automation Engineer, or similar controls professional.
  • Strong experience with PLC programming, troubleshooting, and industrial control systems.
  • Experience integrating machine vision systems with PLC-controlled automation.
  • Knowledge of ladder logic, structured text, function blocks, or other IEC 61131-3 programming methods.
  • Experience with PLC platforms such as Allen-Bradley / Rockwell Automation, Siemens, or comparable industrial controls.
  • Familiarity with vision platforms such as Cognex, Keyence, or similar industrial vision systems.
  • Understanding of industrial Ethernet, I/O mapping, handshaking, data exchange, and communication protocols.
  • Ability to troubleshoot automation systems, sensors, electrical controls, networking, and machine sequences.
  • Experience with HMI programming, motion control, robotics, or manufacturing equipment integration is preferred.
  • Strong problem-solving, commissioning, and technical documentation skills.
