The Senior Automation Engineer is Tesco’s advanced technical practitioner. The role exists for engineers who have developed exceptional depth in one or more automation disciplines and can use that expertise to lead technical execution, mentor other engineers, establish project-specific methods, and solve difficult integration problems without becoming a traditional people manager.
Depending on project scope and scale, a Senior Automation Engineer may lead an entire technical effort, lead one critical workstream, or serve as the technical authority supporting another project lead. The role remains hands-on: senior technical leadership at Tesco means producing engineering, reviewing models and code, testing systems, working with Manufacturing Engineering, and supporting commissioning - not simply approving the work of others.
This role will require travel up to 10% of the time.
