How much do control engineer jobs pay per year?
What does a control engineer do?
What are the common challenges a control engineer faces when integrating new automation systems with existing infrastructure?
What is a control engineer?
What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a control engineer?
What is the difference between Control Engineer vs Automation Engineer?
| Aspect | Control Engineer | Automation Engineer |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Bachelor's in Electrical, Mechanical, or Control Engineering; certifications like Certified Control Systems Technician (CCST) | Bachelor's in Electrical, Mechanical, or Automation Engineering; similar certifications often applicable |
| Work Environment | Industrial plants, manufacturing facilities, process industries | Manufacturing, robotics, process automation, software development |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Factories, power plants, automation service providers | Manufacturers, tech companies, system integrators |
Control Engineers focus on designing, developing, and maintaining control systems for machinery and processes, while Automation Engineers often work on integrating automation solutions, including software and robotics, to improve efficiency. Both roles require similar credentials and often overlap in industrial settings, but Control Engineers tend to concentrate more on control hardware and systems, whereas Automation Engineers emphasize automation software and systems integration.

About Eos Energy Enterprises
Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc. is accelerating the shift to American energy independence with positively ingenious solutions that transform how the world stores power. Our breakthrough Znyth aqueous zinc battery was designed to overcome the limitations of conventional lithium-ion technology. It is safe, scalable, efficient, sustainable, manufactured in the U.S., and the core of our innovative systems that today provides utility, industrial, and commercial customers with a proven, reliable energy storage alternative for 3 to 12-hour applications. Eos was founded in 2008 and is headquartered in Edison, New Jersey. For more information about Eos (NASDAQ: EOSE), visit eose.com.
About the Role
The Control Systems Design Engineer helps develop the control strategies that manage battery behavior, grid interactions, and sitelevel automation. This role will work closely with the engineering teams to integrate BMS, PCS, and EMS controls into a cohesive platform that supports reliable energy delivery.
Responsibilities
Design and develop control system architectures for BESS, including battery management system (BMS) integration, energy management system (EMS) logic, and power conversion system (PCS) controls
Create control algorithms for charge/discharge cycles, stateofcharge (SOC) balancing, and grid support functions (e.g., frequency regulation, voltage support).
Develop PLC, SCADA, and HMI logic tailored to energy storage applications
Model and simulate system behavior using tools such as MATLAB/Simulink to validate control strategies under various grid and environmental conditions.
Collaborate with electronics engineering, software engineering, and manufacturing teams to ensure seamless integration of control hardware, sensors, and communication networks.
Support commissioning and field deployment, including troubleshooting control logic, tuning system parameters, and validating performance on live systems.
Ensure that designs comply with safety standards such as UL 9540, UL 1741, NFPA 855, and IEEE grid interconnection requirements.
Develop technical documentation, including control narratives, functional design specifications, test procedures, and system architecture diagrams.
Continuously improve system performance by implementing advanced control strategies, predictive analytics, and optimization techniques
Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities
Strong understanding of battery energy storage systems, including BMS, PCS, EMS, and sitelevel controls.
Proficiency with PLC programming (e.g., AllenBradley, Siemens), SCADA platforms, and industrial communication protocols (Modbus, CAN, IEC 61850).
Knowledge of power systems, including inverters, transformers, switchgear, and grid interconnection requirements.
Experience with control theory, system dynamics, and realtime control implementation.
Ability to interpret singleline diagrams, control schematics, and electrical drawings.
Strong troubleshooting skills for both hardware and software issues in complex energy systems.
Experience with energy storage, renewable energy, or power electronics preferred.
Knowledge of relevant standards (UL, IEEE, NFPA) and utility interconnection requirements.
Education and Experience
Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering required.
Minimum of 5 years' experience
Travel
Local Travel: 10-25%
Overnight/North America: 10-25%
