Their engineering teams across several countries deliver equipment software, automation and engineering services to semiconductor customers worldwide.

They are now building a new engineering team in Johor Bahru. This is new headcount, not a replacement. The JB team will be the company's local hub for hands-on customer support and international on-site assignments.

The Role

You'll design, build and test software that controls high-precision automated machines. The work runs from Windows C# operator interfaces down to PLC logic and real-time hardware I/O. You'll test your code on real machines in the lab and at customer sites, then make sure the equipment behaves exactly the way the software intends.

What You'll Do

• Develop and test C# (.NET) applications with XAML/WPF interfaces in Visual Studio
• Program and debug PLC logic in Structured Text (IEC 61131-3)
• Build multithreaded applications and software libraries for real-time hardware I/O control, sensors and actuators
• Work across RTOS, Linux and embedded platforms
• Integrate with industrial protocols such as EtherCAT and Modbus
• Validate algorithms on physical prototypes in the lab and on customer equipment
• Own bug fixes, revisions and version control, and write clear documentation for traceability and ISO compliance
• Work closely with Mechanical, Electrical and international engineering teams
• Travel overseas to provide on-site support for customers, including assignments that can last a couple of months

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Mechatronics, Electrical/Electronic Engineering or a related field
• 1–5 years of experience in industrial software, machine control or automation
• Hands-on experience with Structured Text (IEC 61131-3) PLC programming
• Solid C#/.NET skills, including multithreading, plus XAML/WPF UI development
• Familiarity with EtherCAT / Modbus, I/O libraries, and RTOS or embedded Linux
• Good English communication skills, because you will support customers directly
• Comfortable working hands-on with machines, hardware and diagnostic tools
• Based in Johor, or willing to relocate to JB yourself
• Holds a valid passport and is willing to travel frequently for extended on-site assignments
• Semiconductor equipment experience is a strong plus. Candidates from automation, robotics, machine building, electronics manufacturing or other industrial sectors are also welcome.

Why Join

• Hands-on experience with advanced semiconductor equipment
• International exposure: work with global customers and engineering teams in several countries
• A chance to be part of the founding JB engineering team
• Real technical challenges and room to grow quickly
