Marketech International Corporation USA is seeking a skilled DCS Control Engineer to support the design, configuration, implementation, optimization, and maintenance of Distributed Control Systems for industrial, chemical, semiconductor, and facility-related operations. This role is responsible for supporting control system architecture, controller configuration, HMI displays, system tags, alarms, historian data, communication interfaces, control logic, and commissioning activities for critical facility and process systems.
The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with DCS platforms, preferably Emerson DeltaV, strong PLC integration knowledge, and the ability to read and interpret P&ID drawings, loop drawings, and related engineering documentation to ensure system configurations align with process flow, safety requirements, and operational standards.
Key ResponsibilitiesConfigure, build, and maintain DCS system architecture, including servers, controllers, EIOC, workstations, operator stations, and related system components
Design and develop HMI / operator graphic displays to support clear process visibility and operator response
Create, configure, and manage system tags in accordance with P&ID drawings, project standards, naming conventions, and operational requirements
Configure industrial communication protocols, including PLC communication, Modbus, OPC, Ethernet/IP, and related integration interfaces
Develop control logic using Emerson DeltaV function blocks and related control strategies
Implement sequence control, interlocks, timers, permissives, conditional logic, and process control functions to support safe and reliable system operation
Configure alarm strategies, including HI, HI-HI, A_ALM, B_ALM, and related alarm parameters
Implement alarm hysteresis, alarm suppression logic, and OPSUP logic to reduce nuisance alarms and improve operator response
Support loop checks, I/O checkout, system testing, commissioning, startup, and turnover activities
Provide on-site troubleshooting, maintenance support, and emergency response for DCS, PLC, communication, alarm, logic, and HMI-related issues
Configure historian / INSQL data points, records, trends, and reporting structures
Develop trend displays, dashboards, reports, and data visualization tools to support operations and engineering teams
Integrate DCS platforms with PLCs, databases, historian systems, and external data systems as needed
Review and interpret P&ID drawings, loop drawings, wiring diagrams, control narratives, cause-and-effect diagrams, and related engineering documentation
Coordinate with engineering, operations, maintenance, commissioning, construction, vendors, and project teams to resolve technical issues and support project execution
Maintain accurate documentation, redlines, configuration records, test results, change logs, and system turnover documentation
QualificationsHands-on experience with DCS systems; Emerson DeltaV experience strongly preferred
Experience configuring servers, controllers, EIOC, HMI graphics, system tags, alarms, historian points, and control logic
PLC integration experience, including Ladder Logic and Function Block programming concepts
Knowledge of industrial communication protocols, including Modbus, OPC, Ethernet/IP, PLC communication interfaces, and related network architecture
Strong control logic design experience, including sequences, interlocks, timers, permissives, conditional logic, and process control functions
Ability to read, interpret, and apply P&ID drawings, loop drawings, control narratives, wiring diagrams, and related engineering documentation
Experience supporting loop checks, I/O checkout, system testing, commissioning, startup, SAT/FAT, and system validation activities
Experience with alarm configuration, alarm rationalization, alarm suppression, alarm hysteresis, and nuisance alarm troubleshooting
Familiarity with historian systems, INSQL, trend displays, dashboards, and operational reporting tools
Strong troubleshooting skills related to communication issues, system performance, alarms, logic errors, control loops, and field device signals
Ability to collaborate with engineering, operations, maintenance, commissioning, vendors, and project teams
Strong attention to detail, documentation accuracy, and ability to work in high-specification industrial environments
Preferred QualificationsExperience supporting semiconductor, chemical, manufacturing, industrial, high-purity, or critical facility systems
Emerson DeltaV configuration, commissioning, and troubleshooting experience
Experience working with chemical delivery systems, process utilities, UPW, wastewater, gas, exhaust, HVAC controls, or facility monitoring systems
Experience supporting field commissioning, startup, SAT/FAT, loop checks, I/O checkout, and system validation
Knowledge of control system cybersecurity, access control, change management, version control, and system documentation standards
Experience with database integration, historian reporting, dashboard development, and operational data visualization
Experience working in cleanroom, semiconductor fab, construction, or industrial facility environments
Familiarity with instrumentation, transmitters, sensors, valves, analyzers, VFDs, MCCs, and control panels
Work EnvironmentThis position may require work in industrial, construction, semiconductor, chemical, cleanroom, and facility environments. The role may involve both office-based engineering work and field support, including troubleshooting, commissioning, system validation, system maintenance, and on-site startup activities.
