About the role
The ESS is at an exciting turning point - it is in transition from being a construction site, to being an operating facility.

The task of the group is to develop standards for motion at ESS and work with partners to implement these across the whole facility. The focus of the group is to support the construction of neutron instruments in NSS.
The position requires an expert in Motion Control and PLC systems especially for the design, procurement, installation and commissioning of motion control related components and control systems.
Your main areas of responsibilities as an Automation Engineer will be to:

- Supervise and support the installation of instrument systems on ESS site and the energisation process; program and commission the systems.
- Compile and provide the Instrument Teams with the relevant documentation necessary to pass the different ESS reviews from design to commissioning.
- Communicate and link between the different Instruments Teams, suppliers, MCAG and other ESS groups relevant for motion control.
