Hello,
I'm in search of a PoE+ Switch with 5-8 ports (at least 5 required) that features a scheduling function to automatically power devices on or off within specific timeframes. Ideally, the switch would also offer 1-2 SFP+ ports for 10GbE uplinks, though this is optional. If a scheduling feature is unavailable, I need a switch that can be controlled via CLI to facilitate automation through scripting. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

If possible, a Mikrotik Switch. But in no case TP-Link or Netgear.

EDIT: Currently I'm looking into the CSS610-8P-2S+IN. But it's running SwitchOS Lite. Can I configure a scheduler in this switch and can I power the interfaces ON/OFF? I don't understand, if SwitchOS Lite is capable of it. PoE-Out - RouterOS - MikroTik Documentation I can't find anything here.

As you didn't really indicate any budget limitations....
Cisco WS-C3560CX-12PD. 12 ports PoE+, 2 SFP+ ports. CLI capable of remote script application, or can be scripted through EEM internally.
