Control Engineer

YOUR ROLE

The Control Engineer is responsible for developing, maintaining, and improving all automation and control systems used across production processes at the Mexico Plant. The role ensures stable machine performance, robust error‑proofing, reliable data acquisition, and seamless integration of equipment into manufacturing and traceability systems.

This position plays a key role in supporting industrialization, improving process capability, and ensuring compliance with IAS and automotive standards for safety, quality, and production efficiency.

Responsibilities:
- Develop, modify, and optimize PLC, HMI, and automation programs to ensure stable, repeatable, and efficient equipment performance. This includes enhancing control logic to improve cycle times, OEE, process reliability, and compliance with safety and automotive standards. The role ensures that automation solutions are robust, well‑documented, and technically aligned with IAS engineering guidelines.




- Support the commissioning of new equipment and contributes to all controls‑related aspects of industrialization. This includes validating communication between machines, sensors, vision systems, and traceability or MES systems, as well as ensuring that equipment meets functional, quality, and safety requirements during launch. The Control Engineer participates in APQP activities to define and validate control requirements for new products and processes.
- Serve as the technical reference for resolving automation issues, diagnosing faults in PLCs, sensors, networks, and control logic. The position collaborates closely with Production and Maintenance to perform root‑cause analysis of alarms, downtime, or repeated process failures, and implements robust corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
- Define, implement, and maintain error‑proofing (poka‑yoke) solutions that guarantee product conformity and prevent defects. The Control Engineer supports process capability improvements by optimi
