Ensure compliance with safety and regulatory standards.

System Optimization: Collaborate with plant teams and process engineers to analyze control system performance data, identify opportunities for optimization, and implement improvement strategies. Optimize control algorithms, tuning parameters, and control loops to enhance process stability, efficiency, and product quality.

Expert System Application Maintenance and Optimization: Work in coordination with plant teams and process engineers to maintain and optimize expert system applications in crushing, milling, pyro-processing, environmental compliance, and quality control applications to drive high utilization and value.

Data Acquisition/Historian Support: Provide technical support for the maintenance and troubleshooting of company’s data historian. Add tags and configure connections to new systems, build customer reports, manage user accounts, and assist process engineers with development of trends and other historian tools.

System Upgrades and Integration: Support control system upgrades, migrations, and integration projects. Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including project managers, IT, process engineers, and vendors, to plan and execute system upgrades, implement new functionalities, and ensure seamless integration with existing plant systems.

Maintenance and Documentation: Develop and implement preventive maintenance plans for control systems, including routine inspections, calibrations, and software updates. Maintain accurate and up-to-date documentation of control system configurations, interlock diagrams, network diagrams, business continuity plans and standard operating procedures. Ensure compliance with change management processes.

Training and Knowledge Transfer: Provide training and technical guidance to operators and process engineers on control system operation, troubleshooting techniques, and best practices. Foster a culture of knowledge sharing and continuous learning by conducting workshops, developing training materials, and sharing expertise with the plant teams.

Cybersecurity: Collaborate with IT teams and cybersecurity experts to implement robust security measures and protocols to protect process network systems from cyber threats. Monitor and assess system vulnerabilities, recommend, and implement security enhancements, and ensure compliance with cybersecurity standards.
