Project history
Led a team of eight engineers on a railway project, developing concept and wiring diagrams, BOMs, and wiring harness and cable documentation using Zuken E3 and EPLAN. Provided technical oversight for a food-industry packaging machine project, coordinating automation and electrical installation work. Prepared cost estimates and technical concepts for electrical and automation systems in response to RFQs. Conducted machinery safety audits and risk assessments (PN-EN ISO 12100, PN-EN 60204, PN-EN ISO 13849). Developed scripts and macros to automate CAD/ECAD tasks. Developed and implemented an internal CRM system and database. Managed recruitment, technical competency assessments, B2B negotiations, and operational planning.
Led a team of seven automation engineers, organizing work, allocating project tasks, and conducting recruitment and staff development interviews. Programmed PLCs and developed HMI applications using Siemens TIA Portal and Allen-Bradley Studio 5000. Configured servo drives, VFDs, and IO-Link sensors. Integrated and programmed Kawasaki industrial robots. Managed machinery safety and risk assessments (PN-EN ISO 12100), assessed Performance Levels using SISTEMA, and prepared machinery for CE marking. Supervised in-house system commissioning and performed final machine testing at customer sites.
Designed control systems and electrical schematics for special-purpose machinery using SEE Electrical and EPLAN. Produced control cabinet layouts, wiring documentation, and BOMs. Assembled and wired control cabinets and carried out on-site equipment assembly and installation. Programmed Siemens and Unitronics PLCs, developed HMI applications, and performed I/O testing during machine commissioning. Contributed to machinery risk assessments in accordance with PN-EN ISO 12100.
