Job Summary: We are seeking a highly skilled Controls Engineer specializing in Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) with expertise in both hardware and software aspects. In this role, you will be responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining PLC-based control systems for industrial automation applications. The ideal candidate will possess comprehensive knowledge of controls engineering principles, including controls networking, safety, electrical system troubleshooting, factory automation, and sensor technology, among others.




Responsibilities:

  • develop, and implement PLC-based control systems for industrial machinery and processes, ensuring adherence to project requirements and specifications.
  • and configure PLCs using industry-standard software (e.g., Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Schneider Electric) to control equipment and processes efficiently and reliably.
  • with cross-functional teams, including mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, and software developers, to integrate PLCs into larger automation systems.
  • control-networking activities, including the design and implementation of communication protocols (e.g., Ethernet/IP, Modbus) for seamless interaction between PLCs and other control devices.
  • control safety measures, such as emergency stop circuits, safety interlocks, and safety PLC programming, to ensure compliance with industry standards and regulations (e.g., ANSI/RIA R15.06, ISO 13849).
  • electrical system troubleshooting to diagnose and resolve issues related to PLC hardware, wiring, sensors, actuators, and power distribution systems.
  • factory automation and control systems knowledge to optimize production processes, improve efficiency, and reduce downtime in manufacturing environments.
  • manufacturing analysis-led design techniques to identify opportunities for process improvement and implement innovative control solutions.
  • manufacturing prognostics algorithms and predictive maintenance strategies to anticipate equipment failures and minimize unplanned downtime.
  • controls system security measures, including access control, data encryption, and network segmentation, to protect PLC-based systems from cyber threats and unauthorized access.
  • sensor technology and measurement techniques to select appropriate sensors for monitoring process variables and feedback control.
  • technical expertise and guidance to project teams, suppliers, and customers on controls engineering best practices, standards, and emerging technologies.

Requirements:

  • degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field. Master's degree preferred.
  • years of experience in controls engineering, with a focus on PLC-based control systems design, programming, and implementation.
  • in PLC programming languages (e.g., ladder logic, function block diagram, structured text) and PLC hardware configuration.
  • knowledge of controls networking protocols and architectures, including Ethernet/IP, Modbus, Profibus, and DeviceNet.
  • with controls safety standards and regulations, such as ANSI/RIA R15.06, ISO 13849, and NFPA 79.
  • troubleshooting skills and experience with electrical system diagnostics and repair.
  • with factory automation technologies, including robotics, motion control, and HMI/SCADA systems.
  • of manufacturing analysis-led design methodologies, such as Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing, and Design for Manufacturing (DFM).
  • with manufacturing prognostics techniques, predictive maintenance strategies, and reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) principles.
  • controls system security principles, cybersecurity standards, and industrial network security best practices.
  • in sensor technology, measurement instrumentation, and data acquisition systems.
  • verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to convey complex technical concepts to diverse audiences.
