- Develop PLC, HMI, and SCADA applications (primarily Allen-Bradley / Rockwell Studio 5000 & FactoryTalk)
- Design UL 508A-style control panels and produce electrical schematics
- Configure motion control, VFDs, servo drives, and industrial networks (EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT)
- Integrate vision systems, safety circuits, and FANUC robotic cells into the broader control architecture
- Commission systems on-site, troubleshoot, and support customer startup
- Produce clean documentation and follow functional safety best practices
Required Qualifications
- 3+ years of hands-on industrial controls engineering experience
- Strong Allen-Bradley / Rockwell programming (Studio 5000, FactoryTalk) — required
- Working experience integrating FANUC robots — required
- Solid grasp of ladder logic and structured text (IEC 61131-3)
- Comfortable on the plant floor and traveling to client sites
- Must be a U.S. Citizen (required for ITAR-controlled and government-related work)
Preferred
- CODESYS, KUKA, or ABB experience
- Vision systems (Keyence, Cognex), metrology, or scanning
- Functional safety (FSoE / DCS), SCADA/MES (Ignition), or panel build background
