About the Role

As a PLC Programmer at BOS Innovations, you will develop and implement logical, efficient PLC and HMI programs that transform complex automation concepts into reliable, fully integrated systems. Working closely with mechanical, electrical, and project management teams, you’ll ensure each machine functions seamlessly, from initial programming and debugging, to on-site commissioning and customer acceptance.

This position is ideal for a hands-on problem solver who thrives in a dynamic, project-based environment. You’ll play a key role throughout the system lifecycle, designing, testing, troubleshooting, and refining control logic to meet project timelines, budgets, and performance standards. Your work will directly contribute to delivering safe, intelligent, and high-quality automation solutions that embody BOS’s commitment to innovation and excellence.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Develop and Integrate Control Systems: Design, program, and test PLC and HMI software that meets project scope, safety standards, and customer specifications. Implement communication and I/O interfaces, motion control, and safety logic to ensure seamless system operation.
  • Collaborate and Problem Solve: Work closely with project managers, engineers, and build teams to identify issues, implement solutions, and ensure machines perform safely and efficiently during all project phases — from development to commissioning.
  • Commission and Support Equipment: Lead on-site installation and commissioning, troubleshooting I/O, motion, and communication networks to deliver fully functional, production-ready systems that meet FAT and SAT milestones.
  • Ensure Quality and Documentation: Maintain up-to-date Quality Control Checklists, develop clear operating and troubleshooting documentation, and adhere to BOS programming standards for accuracy, reliability, and safety compliance.
  • Drive Continuous Improvement: Proactively identify process or program enhancements, contribute to BOS programming standards, and mentor through the department’s Advisor/Advisee program to support ongoing growth and innovation.

This description reflects management’s assignment of essential functions; it does not prescribe or restrict the tasks that may be assigned. BOS welcomes applications from people with disabilities. Accommodations are available on request for candidates taking part in all aspects of the selection process.

Your interest in this opportunity is appreciated. Applicants must be legally eligible to work in the United States of America, and able to travel to Canada as required. Only those applicants selected for an interview will be contacted.

Requirements

About You

You are a driven, detail-oriented automation professional who thrives in a collaborative, hands-on environment. With a diploma or degree in Electrical Engineering Technology, Mechatronics, or a related field, you bring a strong technical foundation and a passion for designing efficient, reliable control systems.

You have experience programming PLCs and developing HMI applications for complex automation systems, using platforms such as Rockwell Automation, Siemens, or equivalent. You’re skilled at creating structured, reliable logic and safety programs that comply with CSA standards, and you take pride in delivering high-performing, user-friendly solutions.

You excel at solving problems - from interpreting schematics to troubleshooting on the floor or commissioning at customer sites. With knowledge of robotics, motion control, and communication networks such as Ethernet/IP or Profinet, you approach each challenge with precision and curiosity. Occasional travel for commissioning energizes you because it means seeing your work in action.
