This position plays a critical role in supporting a growing portfolio of microgrid projects, including live customer systems, and requires strong accountability, technical depth, and comfort operating in customer-facing, high-pressure environments. In addition to project delivery, the Senior Controls Engineer contributes to team performance by mentoring peers, supporting knowledge sharing, and helping evolve project execution standards and processes. The role can be based anywhere in US or Canada and includes 30-40% travel for on-site commissioning activities.

  • Serve as the technical lead for advanced microgrid control system projects from sales handover through commissioning and ongoing support
  • Plan, develop, implement, test, and troubleshoot microgrid control systems to ensure successful project delivery
  • Lead on-site and remote startup and commissioning activities, including development and execution of commissioning test plans
  • Provide high-level technical support for in-progress projects and operating microgrid systems, including triage and resolution of customer issues
  • Partner cross-functionally with Controls Engineering, Service, Commissioning, and Sales teams to deliver strong customer outcomes
  • Balance hands-on project execution with continuous improvement of project processes, standards, and quality
  • Mentor and support team members through technical guidance, knowledge sharing, and collaboration
  • Communicate project status, challenges, and progress clearly to internal stakeholders and customers

Minimum Qualifications
  • Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering
  • 5 + years' experience with programming Industrial controls, PLC's, HMI's and Industrial communication protocols
  • Formalized training and/or education in Industrial Automation, Engineering, Computer Science or MIS

Preferred Qualifications
  • 5 + years' experience with three-phase AC power system controls and automation
  • 5 + years' experience with controls and automation of generators, energy storage systems, solar PV systems, protective relays, and switchgear
  • Thorough understanding of industrial communication protocols, primarily Modbus RTU/TCP and DNP3
  • Advanced technical understanding of power control philosophy in voltage-forming and voltage-following applications
  • Experience managing technical projects through the full lifecycle, including initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, commissioning, close-out, and support

  • Make a positive impact. Generac has always been community-minded and dedicated to giving back. The company proudly offers a Volunteer Time Off program, inviting team members to participate in charitable volunteer opportunities on company time.
