Machine Vision Engineer Competitive Salary Hereford, with travel throughout the UK.
The Role
Are you ready to take your engineering expertise to the next level with cutting-edge technology? Do you enjoy variety in your work and the satisfaction of solving technical challenges? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you.
We're looking for a multi-skilled engineer to work as a Machine Vision Engineer, installing, commissioning and optimising industry leading Cognex vision systems across the UK.
This is a hands-on, dynamic role that offers variety and the chance to tackle unique challenges in different environments. With frequent travel across the UK, you’ll see new places, meet diverse teams and experience the satisfaction of bringing projects to life from start to finish.
If you’re excited about working with cutting-edge Cognex vision systems and making a difference across industries, we’d love to hear from you.
Key Responsibilities:
Installation & Commissioning: You’ll travel to different client sites (usually 2-4 days on-site) to install and get
Cognex
vision systems up and running, ensuring they’re performing at their best. Troubleshooting & Problem-Solving: Whether it’s a damaged connection or software that needs optimising, you’ll dive in headfirst to find the issue, fix it, and keep the systems running smoothly. Client Collaboration: You’ll work closely with clients to figure out their needs, recommend solutions, and make sure everything’s running smoothly post-installation. Variety of Projects: No two projects are the same. You’ll work on everything from inspecting high-speed lines to ensuring the highest product quality, all while tackling new challenges across various industries. On-the-Go: You’ll travel across the UK, seeing new places and experiencing new challenges with every project. The Company Visicon is a UK based company providing integration, support and training in a wide range of Machine Vision and automated control systems. Visicon represents one of the UK's most experienced providers of Cognex based vision solutions. We’ve worked with companies across everything from food and pharma to automotive and electronics, and we’re growing fast. We’re a small team (which means you won’t get lost in the crowd) and a perfect place for engineers looking to learn, grow, and be challenged. The Person Engineering Experience: You’ve got experience as a
maintenance engineer ,
control systems engineer , or
installation/commissioning engineer . Fault-finding and troubleshooting are second nature to you. Full UK Driving License: You’ll be travelling around the UK for most of the job, so you’ll need a full UK driving license. You’re going places! Qualifications (Optional):
Got a
BTEC ,
BEng , or
MSc ? Great! If not, don’t worry if you’ve got the skills and the right attitude, that’s what matters most. Tech Savvy: You don’t need to be a
Cognex expert , but you should be comfortable with industrial systems, automation, or control systems. If you’ve worked with
Cognex
vision systems (like In-Sight, VisionPro, or DataMan), or vision systems from other manufacturers, even better. Problem Solver: You’re the go-to person when things break. You love the challenge of diagnosing issues and finding solutions that work. Adaptable & Energetic: You’re comfortable working in a variety of environments, and you’re always up for a new challenge. (Bonus points if you love variety in your day-to-day routine.) Team Player: You know that great teams work together. You’ll collaborate with clients and the Visicon team, sharing knowledge and ideas to get things done. Autonomy: You’ll have the freedom to manage your time and projects, but you’ll also have a supportive team behind you when you need it.
