The ideal candidate will possess exceptional problem solving skills along with engineering and automation knowledge. Alongside a team of experienced project managers, automation designers, control engineers and maintenance engineers, you will play a pivotal role in managing projects to optimise the engineering reliability and maintenance processes across 8 markets. Responsibilities End-to-end automation project performance monitoring — own regional rollouts across 8 markets, translate strategy into in-market execution with clear owners, timelines, and accountability; ensure initiatives don't just launch but stick. Performance visibility tools — work with local automation engineers and China-based software engineers to deliver OEE dashboards, digital twin, and AI-assisted diagnostics that operations teams rely on day-to-day. Vendor governance — partner with project and procurement teams to validate point-to-point testing, redundancy verification, and control logic against specifications during design and project phases; identify gaps before go-live. Performance management — track OEE and uptime KPIs across markets, flag deviations early, drive corrective action, and build local reporting habits so performance management becomes routine rather than reactive.

Hands-on grounding in PLC/DCS system integration and commissioning — including P&ID verification, hardware configuration, instrumentation checks, and onsite troubleshooting of control programs and equipment; able to read and critique SAT protocols, IO Lists, and network architecture diagrams. Familiarity with industrial communication protocols (Modbus RTU/TCP, OPC-UA) and conveyor/sorter control logic — enough to hold a credible technical conversation and know the right questions to ask. Working knowledge of OT/IT networking — switches, VLANs, router configuration, remote access, and OT/IT segregation. Demonstrated ability to drive adoption of technical or operational programs across multiple sites or markets — not just deploying but following through to sustained results. Strong communicator: able to present performance data and technical risks clearly to management without jargon. Self-directed and comfortable with ambiguity — you define the structure and drive the follow-through. Willingness to travel across Southeast Asia, Taiwan, and Brazil.
