    Industrial Automation Workforce Solutions in KSA

    Industrial Automation Workforce Solutions in KSA

    AIQU deploys specialist automation and OT engineers onto projects across Saudi Arabia, on our sponsorship and under your operational control. We cover the full control stack, carry visa, GOSI, payroll, and Saudization compliance, and mobilise the engineers other firms cannot reach.

    Background shape
    • Scope the Role and Platform

      We define the role, seniority, and control platform your project runs on.

    Search Our Specialist Network

    We draw on our mapped GCC automation talent pool to reach scarce engineers.

  1. Technical Vetting

    We assess platform experience, certifications, and commissioning history before profiles reach you.

  2. Visa and Mobilisation

    We carry visa, GOSI, sponsorship, and relocation so engineers arrive ready to work.

  3. Onboarding, Payroll and Retention

    Engineers start on reliable payroll, and we keep them in seat.

  4. AIQU deploys specialist automation and OT engineers across critical infrastructure in KSA.

    Specialist Automation Engineers, on Our Sponsorship

    Industrial Automation

    Industrial automation programmes in Saudi Arabia depend on scarce, highly specialised engineers, and on getting them compliantly on site before schedules slip. AIQU is the technology staffing brand of TASC Group, with consultants on the ground in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. We find and deploy specialist automation and OT engineers, and we carry the visa, sponsorship, payroll, and Saudization compliance so your projects do not stall on legalities. Automation is one of six technology domains we staff across MENA, so you have one accountable partner for the whole technology landscape.

    • 800+ technology specialists across automation, data, cloud, cybersecurity, software, and enterprise systems

    • 18+ years in the region, reaching 68+ countries for hard-to-find engineers

    • Visa, GOSI, sponsorship, payroll, and Saudization compliance carried on our establishment

    • NPS of 86.5 across 520+ enterprise clients, built on reliable delivery

    Cover the Whole Control Stack, Compliantly

    Most staffing firms give you one layer of the control stack. We cover it end to end, from field instrumentation and PLC, DCS and SCADA control, through SIS and safety systems, up to the OT cybersecurity that protects every tier. When AIQU employs the engineer, the headcount sits on our establishment and Saudization standing, not yours. You get the specialist on site, off your quota, directing the work day to day while we carry employment and compliance.

    Specialist Talent, on Our Sponsorship

    Engineers sit on AIQU's KSA sponsorship and visa allocation, not yours. You direct the work, and we carry employment and compliance.

    • On Our Visa Allocation

      Engineers sit on AIQU's KSA sponsorship and visa allocation, not on yours.

    • Off Your Quota

      Headcount does not count against your engineering Saudization ratio.

    • Global Mobilisation

    Q

    The KSA Challenges We Help You Solve

    Engineering Saudization rose to 30%, effective 30 June 2026, for firms with five or more accredited engineers. Falling short risks frozen work permits and tender disqualification. When AIQU employs the engineer, that headcount sits on our establishment, not yours.
