What is the difference between Part Time Control Systems Engineer vs Control Systems Technician?

AspectPart Time Control Systems EngineerControl Systems Technician
CredentialsBachelor's degree in engineering or related field; certifications like CSCP or related preferredTechnical diploma or associate degree; relevant certifications
Work EnvironmentDesign, development, and troubleshooting of control systems; often in office or lab settingsInstallation, maintenance, and repair of control systems; on-site industrial environments
Employer & Industry UsageManufacturing, automation, and engineering firmsIndustrial plants, factories, and automation companies

While both roles involve working with control systems, the Part Time Control Systems Engineer focuses on designing and developing control solutions, often requiring a degree and certifications. In contrast, the Control Systems Technician handles installation and maintenance tasks, typically with technical diplomas. The engineer's role is more analytical and design-oriented, whereas the technician's role is more hands-on and operational.

Job description

Your role on our team
Pioneer the application of reinforcement learning (RL) and sequential decision-making to high-impact challenges across ExxonMobil's upstream, downstream, and commercial operations.
Collaborate with engineers, scientists, and business stakeholders to turn complex operational and planning problems into deployable, production-grade RL solutions.
Advance the organization's capabilities in reinforcement learning, decision optimization, and autonomous control as part of the Modeling, Optimization, and Data Science (MODS) team.
What you will do
  • Design, develop, and deploy reinforcement learning solutions for real-world energy applications such as production optimization, process control, supply chain scheduling, drilling optimization, and resource allocation.
  • Formulate sequential decision problems by defining state spaces, action spaces, reward structures, transition dynamics, and operational constraints with domain experts.
  • Develop RL agents using model-free methods (e.g., PPO, SAC, TD3, DQN where appropriate) and model-based approaches, selecting methods based on problem requirements, safety, and data availability.
  • Build and use simulation environments and digital twins for offline training, policy evaluation, and validation before real-world deployment.
  • Apply safe and constrained RL techniques to ensure agents operate within operational and safety limits.
  • Integrate RL solutions with existing optimization, simulation, and control systems across real-time and planning use cases.
  • Partner with data scientists and ML engineers to operationalize solutions, including training pipelines, monitoring, retraining, and performance tracking.
  • Benchmark RL against traditional methods such as LP, MIP, heuristic search, MPC, and stochastic optimization to identify best-fit approaches.
  • Stay current with advances in offline RL, safe RL, multi-agent RL, hierarchical RL, and model-based RL.
  • Share knowledge, publish findings where appropriate, and mentor peers on RL best practices.

About you
Desired Skills:
  • Experienced AI/ML professional with strong expertise in reinforcement learning, sequential decision-making, optimization, and real-world deployment.
  • 5+ years of experience in AI/ML, optimization, or related fields, including at least 2 years in reinforcement learning, sequential decision-making, or optimal control.
  • Master's or PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Operations Research, Control Theory, Robotics, Applied Mathematics, Engineering, or a related quantitative field.
  • Deep understanding of RL fundamentals, including MDPs, dynamic programming, temporal-difference learning, policy gradients, and actor-critic methods.
  • Proven experience building RL systems end-to-end, from environment and reward design through training, evaluation, and deployment.
  • Experience with simulation environments, digital twins, or system models.
  • Strong background in statistics, probability, optimization, control theory, and algorithm design.
  • Proficiency in Python, PyTorch and/or TensorFlow, plus RL tools such as Stable Baselines3, RLlib, and Gymnasium.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, including the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.

Preferred Skills:
  • Experience applying RL or decision optimization in industrial domains such as process control, robotics, autonomous systems, supply chain, energy systems, or operations research.
  • Familiarity with offline (batch) RL, safe RL, and multi-agent RL.
  • Knowledge of model-based RL, MPC, and hybrid RL-control approaches.
  • Understanding of classical optimization methods and how RL complements them.
  • Experience with physics-informed or hybrid mechanistic/ML modeling and domain-informed reward or constraint design.
  • Familiarity with platforms such as Azure ML, Azure OpenAI, Databricks, and MLOps tools such as MLflow or Weights & Biases.
  • Experience in the energy industry or other asset-intensive, safety-critical sectors.

Your benefits
An ExxonMobil career is one designed to last. Our commitment to you runs deep: our employees grow personally and professionally, with benefits built on our core categories of health, security, finance, and life.
We offer you:

  • Workplace Flexibility: We have several programs such as "Flex your Day", providing ad-hoc flexibility around when and where you work, as well as longer-term programs such as leaves of absence and part-time work.
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans.
  • Culture of Health: Programs and resources to support your wellbeing.
  • Employee Health Advisory Program: Provides confidential professional counseling for you and your family, including tools and resources promoting mental health and resiliency at no additional cost to you.
