Job description

Who We Want:

We are hiring a senior-level engineer to own the Ignition platform across our manufacturing environment. This role is focused on Ignition and is accountable for standards, architecture, reliability, and scalable delivery of plant dashboards/HMIs and operational data collection. This role provides internal technical ownership, governance, and long-term supportability of the platform.

What You'll Do:

   Own Ignition gateway architecture, configuration standards, backup/restore approach, and lifecycle (upgrades, redundancy, environments).
   Develop and standardize plant dashboards/HMIs (Perspective/Vision) using reusable templates, UDTs, and consistent tag models.
   Integrate Ignition with plant-floor systems (PLCs/devices via OPC UA and/or MQTT where applicable) and with databases for operational reporting.
   Establish engineering discipline: versioning, release practices, testing/validation patterns, documentation, and incident/root-cause practices.
   Monitor and improve platform reliability and performance; implement logging/alerting and operational runbooks.
   Partner with OT Automation, MES, Data/UNS, and Cyber teams to ensure safe, supportable integration patterns and clear ownership boundaries.
   Manage and review third-party Ignition work for alignment to standards and long-term maintainability.

When and Where:
This will be a 1st Shift / 9:00AM-5:00PM M-F position located at our Plant in Kansas City, MO (open to this position sitting at any of our locations). 
Occasionally, this may require you to arrive early, stay late, or work on weekends, outside of our regular hours, to ensure we successfully meet customer needs, deadlines, or urgent requests.

What You Need to Have:

   7+ years in industrial automation/SCADA/MES/IIoT environments with significant hands-on Ignition delivery.
   Strong experience with Ignition gateway configuration and project delivery; building HMIs/dashboards in Perspective and/or Vision.
   Experience integrating to PLCs/devices and industrial data sources (e.g., OPC UA; MQTT familiarity is a plus).
   Strong SQL skills for working with operational data stores (queries, performance, schemas used for reporting).
   Proven ability to lead technical standards, improve reliability, and mentor/guide other engineers and integrators.
Preferred Qualifications
   Experience with multi-site SCADA standardization and rollout programs.
   Experience with MES integrations (e.g., Plex) and/or data platforms (e.g., Snowflake/Fabric/UNS patterns).
   Ignition certification (Core/Gold) or comparable demonstrated expertise.
   Working knowledge of OT cybersecurity practices for SCADA (role-based access, certificates/SSL, segmentation alignment).
