• Define long-term controls architecture, alarm philosophy, OT network standards, naming conventions, integration requirements, and supportability expectations across multi-vendor environments.
• Oversee design, integration, commissioning, and operational handoff of major automation and controls initiatives across new sites, expansions, and retrofit programs.
• Establish cybersecurity requirements and governance for OT systems in partnership with IT and security teams, including segmentation, access control, remote support methods, device lifecycle management, and compliance practices.
• Drive adoption of smart building technologies, advanced analytics, visualization, digital-twin-related capabilities, and scalable automation practices that improve uptime, efficiency, and operational insight.
• Ensure building automation systems produce actionable data, high-quality alarms, and consistent control behavior that support both local operations and fleet-level visibility.
• Sponsor and govern root cause analysis, recurring issue elimination, and systemic improvement efforts related to controls, automation, integration, and OT reliability.
• Lead vendor strategy for automation partners, system integrators, controls contractors, and platform providers, including performance expectations, standardization, and long-term technical roadmap alignment.
• Build and develop technical leadership within the automation organization, including managers, senior engineers, and domain specialists.
• Influence portfolio planning, capital prioritization, and operating standards by identifying automation-related risks, obsolescence concerns, and strategic modernization opportunities.
• Align engineering, IT, cybersecurity, operations, and construction stakeholders around common automation standards, ownership models, and execution discipline.

Ideal Candidate Profile

• 10+ years of experience in controls engineering, building automation, industrial automation, OT systems, or mission-critical facility automation leadership; data center experience strongly preferred, though adjacent experience in semiconductor, pharmaceutical, utilities, advanced manufacturing, healthcare, or similarly uptime-critical environments is highly relevant.

• Deep knowledge of BMS, SCADA, DCS, PLC, HMI, OT infrastructure, and multi-vendor controls environments.
• Strong experience setting technical standards, leading strategic automation programs, and governing execution across design, commissioning, operations, and vendor ecosystems.
• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Controls Engineering, Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related technical field preferred; advanced degree is a plus but not required.

Skills and Competencies

• Visionary technical leadership with strong execution discipline.
• Ability to align engineering, IT, cybersecurity, and operations around common standards and operating models.
• Strong judgment in balancing innovation, cybersecurity, reliability, maintainability, and cost.
• Executive-level communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical strategy into clear priorities and decisions.
• Strong organizational leadership, talent development, and cross-functional influence.

Preferred Skills / Certifications

• Deep expertise in BMS, SCADA, PLC, DCS, industrial networking, OT cybersecurity, alarming strategy, and large-scale automation integration.
• Familiarity with platforms and ecosystems such as Schneider Electric, Siemens, Rockwell, Ignition, Niagara, Johnson Controls, Honeywell, Cisco industrial networking, and related multi-vendor environments.
• Experience shaping OT cybersecurity programs or standards using frameworks such as IEC 62443, NIST 800-82, or equivalent industrial cybersecurity practices.
• Experience with fleet standardization, digital twin or advanced visualization initiatives, data integration, smart alarming, and automation analytics programs.
• Understanding of critical facility systems and the role automation plays across mechanical cooling, electrical infrastructure, EPMS, DCIM, and integrated operational response.
• Relevant certifications or training in BMS/controls platforms, industrial networking, OT cybersecurity, or automation leadership are a plus.
• Credentials such as Schneider Electric EcoXpert, Niagara certification, Ignition credentials, Rockwell certification/training, Cisco industrial networking certifications, or OT cybersecurity certifications are valuable where aligned to platform mix and scope.
