Plc Programming Jobs in Utah (NOW HIRING)

Picture a typical day at our Aragonite site: you start by reviewing overnight trends in WonderWare and Canary Historian, checking KPIs and dashboards that reflect the health of our control environment. A quick huddle with I&E technicians aligns calibration priorities and instrumentation repairs. Before lunch, you refine ControlLogix 5000 logic to prevent a nuisance trip, route the change through our Management of Change (MOC) process, and coach operations on the updated control strategy. The afternoon is for renewing DCS platforms (ABB 800xA), validating backups, updating P&IDs and network drawings, and guiding a contractor crew on a PLC panel upgrade—all while keeping safety at the forefront.
