  • Design and support automation for flexible, experimental process systems, requiring frequent modification, rapid iteration, and integration of new instrumentation.
  • Collaborate closely with engineers, scientists and technicians to translate process requirements into control strategies and data systems.
  • Own automation systems from concept through implementation, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement.
  • Programming and maintaining PLCs, HMIs, SCADA systems, and data historians.
  • Select, integrate, and troubleshoot process instrumentation (e.g., flow, pressure, temperature, gas analysis)
  • Diagnose and resolve issues in field wiring, I/O signals (analog/digital), and industrial communication networks
  • Provide hands-on support, including working within electrical enclosures, validating signals, and commissioning control systems
  • Support automated data collection, reporting systems, and integration with local networks
What Makes You the Right Fit
  • 7+ years as an automation and/or controls integration engineer in an industrial or R&D setting.
  • Development of non-Ladder Logic PLC automation systems to control existing processes and field instruments.
  • Knowledge and experience implementing and managing custom SCADA and MES.
  • Safety oriented approach to system design and control logic.
  • Familiarity with electrical system design, including panel layouts, I/O architecture, and applicable standards (UL 508A, NFPA 70E).
  • Understanding of industrial communication protocols (e.g. OPC, Modbus, serial communication).
  • Experience using SQL for database updating and retrieval.
  • Excellent record keeping and attention to detail.
  • Team player with excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to work independently in a fast-paced, evolving R&D environment.
How Would You Stand Out?
  • B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical/Controls Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field; equivalent industry experience may be considered in lieu of a degree.
  • Familiarity with natural language query (NLQ) and AI-enabled analytics platforms.
  • Proficiency with data visualization tools such as Spotfire and statistical software such as JMP.
  • Experience with database development and management.
  • Ability to work effectively within existing corporate network and firewall constraints.
  • Experience supporting automation initiatives across both industrial and R&D environments.
  • Hands-on troubleshooting experience within electrical enclosures.
Why Choose Us?
  • Comprehensive health benefits including medical, dental, vision, and wellness programs
  • Competitive retirement savings plan with company contribution
  • Generous paid time off, holidays, and parental leave
  • Career development programs and tuition reimbursement opportunities
  • Employee assistance programs and well-being resources
  • Collaborative work environment with opportunities to contribute to impactful innovation
