  • Field Engineering & Support: Provide local industrial/commercial control systems engineering service for customers relating to SCADA Systems, PLC Programming, CAD Drawings, Industrial Networking, and Systems Calibration.
  • Technician Interfacing: Support instrument technicians in the field with issues related to interfacing field devices to DCS & SCADA systems, special needs testing, and technical support.
  • Project & Contract Management: Partner with fellow engineers to resolve project backlogs while maintaining excellent relationships with contract customers.
  • On-Site Upgrades: Identify opportunities for system and hardware upgrades at customer facilities.
  • Documentation & Safety: Report job activity and maintain detailed logs about service calls, parts, and orders. Fully comprehend and communicate safety protocols on active job sites.
  • Travel: Safely operate a company vehicle to travel to and from local job sites daily.

Required Education & Experience

  • Experience: Minimum 5+ years of direct, hands-on industry experience programming PLCs (Allen Bradley, Automation Direct, MOSCAD, etc.) and working with process/flow control systems.
  • HMI Proficiency: 5+ years of experience with computer-based HMI software (Wonderware, VTSCADA, Lookout, etc.).
  • Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering (BSEE/BSEET), or an Associate Degree (ASEE) paired with extensive, verifiable field experience. (Note: Advanced theoretical degrees like an MSEE are not required; this is a practical field engineering role).
  • Driving Record: Must possess a valid US driver's license with a clean driving record.
  • Work Authorization: Must be legally authorized to work in the United States. Sponsorship will not be provided for this position

Technical & Mental Requirements

  • Strong background in electrical/electronic engineering, process instrumentation, and process engineering.

  • Electrical Knowledge: Advanced understanding of analog current loops (4-20mAdc, 1-5Vdc, etc.), their PLC counterparts in numeric counts, and strict adherence to the National Electrical Code (NEC).
  • Tool Proficiency: Competency with required physical equipment, including hand tools, volt-ohm meters, power tools, and instrument loops.
  • Growth Mindset: While 5+ years of core experience is required, you will receive ongoing On-the-Job Training (OJT) for company-specific workflows. A willingness to learn daily and teach others is required.
  • Autonomy: Must be highly self-motivated, self-driven, and able to manage daily schedules.

  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
