DOS Engineering & Automation
Specialist consultancy for Tier 1 and Tier 2 industrial operators across Australia — PLC, SCADA, IoT, and turnkey project delivery.
About DOS-E&A
DOS Engineering & Automation (DOS-E&A) is a specialist engineering and automation consultancy delivering high-performance industrial solutions to Tier 1 and Tier 2 operators across Australia.
We partner with clients where the stakes are high — where uptime, safety, and throughput define success. Whether you're running a mine site, processing plant, or automated production facility, we bring the technical depth to solve complex problems and the accountability to see them through.
Founded by Shannon Hayden (CPEng), DOS-E&A provides enterprise-grade technical capability without the overhead of a major firm. You work directly with the engineer doing the work.

About
DOS-E&A was founded by Shannon Hayden, a Chartered Professional Engineer with over a decade of hands-on experience across some of Australia's most demanding industrial environments.
Shannon's background spans mining and resources, food and beverage processing, heavy manufacturing, and logistics — giving DOS-E&A an unusually broad technical foundation that most specialist consultancies simply don't have.
Our philosophy: we don't over-engineer and we don't over-promise. We design systems that perform in the real world — robust, maintainable, and built to last. As an independent consultancy, we're not tied to any vendor or product platform. We recommend what's right for your operation.
