Java Developer
Summary
Builds Java (or C#/.NET) software interfaces for high-capacity Automated Storage & Retrieval Systems (ASRS) in a factory, integrating them with conveyors, lifters, and MES/ERP systems for real-time inventory updates, with optional work on PLC protocols like OPC UA and Modbus.
Core Responsibilities
Developsoftware interfaces for high-capacity Automated Storage & Retrieval Systems(ASRS) used for storing incoming materials and finished goods. Ensure seamlessintegration of ASRS units with factory control systems and the MES forreal-time inventory updates and retrieval requests. Implement control logic forassociated material handling equipment (e.g. automated pallet conveyors,lifters interfacing with the ASRS), handling equipment commands andacknowledgments. Optimize throughput and reliability for material movementsbetween the ASRS and production lines.
Must Have Skills
Experience integrating warehouse automation systems (ASRS) into manufacturing operations, including understanding of conveyor systems and inventory management workflows. Proficiency in programming for real-time equipment control (e.g. using C#/.NET or Java ) to interface with storage system controllers and handle low-latency data exchange. Familiarity with systems integration techniques to connect equipment software with MES/ERP transactions (ensuring inventory updates occur in real time).
Good to Have Skills
Knowledge of PLC communication and industrial protocols (OPC UA, Modbus, etc.) for interfacing with ASRS and related machinery. Understanding of warehouse operations and material flow optimization, enabling design choices that improve automated storage/retrieval efficiency and reliability.
