Mohamed Kacen
I’m an industrial automation professional based in Malta, with an academic background in automation and hands-on experience developing and integrating Siemens control systems in demanding operational environments.
My work focuses on bringing together software engineering, industrial communications, and control-system reliability to support the modernization of established automation infrastructure.
From engineering foundations to practical integration
My engineering background began in Morocco, with a Bachelor’s Degree in Industrial Automation from the Faculty of Sciences and Techniques in Settat. This qualification is recognized at MQF Level 6 in Malta.
At ESI Malta Ltd., where I have worked since 1 August 2023, my experience spans Siemens PLC programming, legacy-system modernization, SCADA integration, industrial communication, troubleshooting, and commissioning support. My current senior title became effective in December 2025.
Continued learning. Evolving capabilities.
Siemens technical training strengthens my practical work with S7-1500, SCL, and WinCC. Alongside this, advanced studies in Big Data, business, and AI, and research into modern industrial software, support an ongoing interest in industrial digitalization.
I value clear engineering thinking: understanding the existing system, identifying integration constraints, and developing solutions that respect real operational conditions.
