I've been working on factory floors and control panels for over 5 years commissioning systems, fixing programs that shouldn't have broken, and building automation solutions that actually hold up in production. My core work is PLC programming and SCADA/HMI development. I've delivered projects across Siemens TIA Portal, Schneider EcoStruxure, Mitsubishi GX Works, Omron Sysmac, Allen-Bradley Studio 5000, and a range of other platforms including Xinje, Wecon, CODESYS-based systems, and AutomationDirect. On the SCADA side I've worked with AVEVA Plant SCADA, WinCC, Viejo Citect, and Node-RED based IIoT dashboards. Beyond the programming side, I handle VFD and servo drive commissioning, industrial communication setup (Modbus, ProfNet, Ethernet/IP, MQTT), and full project documentation. Most of my projects run from design through to site commissioning so I understand what it takes to get a system working in the real world, not just on paper. Across 5+ years I've commissioned systems in food processing, manufacturing, and utilities โ€” if you have a system that needs building, fixing, or upgrading, send me the details and I'll tell you straight whether I can help.
