Automation Engineer Hiring - A Solution for Your Career Choice
In today's market, hiring an Automation Engineer in India presents a serious and daunting recruitment challenge for any organization. Demand is extremely high, qualified candidates are in short supply, and the cost of an unfilled automation position—be it delayed projects, manufacturing interruptions, or missed deadlines—can be substantial.
Career Choice Solution is here to address precisely this problem.
We are a dedicated recruitment agency specializing in finding, screening, and skilled automation engineer hiring throughout India's burgeoning industrial hubs swiftly, accurately, and with appropriate compensation.
The challenge of finding good automation engineers
Different from many other positions of engineers, an automation engineer holds very specific skill sets and proficiencies:
- Detailed knowledge of PLC programming (Siemens TIA Portal, Allen Bradley Studio 5000, Mitsubishi GX Works)
- Hands-on experience of SCADA/DCS/HMI platforms
- Understanding of electrical schematics, control panel building, and field instruments
- Familiarity with robotic integration (ABB, FANUC, KUKA, Yaskawa)
- Awareness and/or knowledge of Industry 4.0 topics such as IoT, OPC-UA, edge computing, predictive maintenance, etc.
- Onsite experience with commissioning, FAT/SAT, and after-sales service
Candidates possessing those skills are mostly not actively searching for opportunities. Hence, they have to be discovered, contacted, and recruited. That takes a technically literate headhunter with an established pool of pre-screened, reliable candidates. That is precisely what Career Choice Solution possesses.
