Process Control Engineer

Automation Technical Resources

A full-time Process Control Engineer position is available in the beautiful area of Rock Hill, SC. In this role, you'll own the configuration, monitoring, and continuous improvement of automation systems inside a large-scale, continuous-process manufacturing operation - the kind of environment where your work shows up directly in uptime, product quality, and cost performance. If you want your technical judgment to matter on a daily basis, this role puts you where the decisions get made.

You'll be developing control strategies that solve real process problems, not managing a queue of tickets. The facility runs modern DCS and PLC platforms, and the team is looking for someone who can move fluidly between hands-on troubleshooting and forward-looking system design.

What You'll Own:
  • Control strategy development - design and implement automation strategies that resolve process issues, improve product quality, reduce downtime, and lower operating costs
  • System documentation - build and maintain control schematics, operational narratives, loop sheets, software backups, and troubleshooting references that the next engineer can actually use
  • Technical support - serve as the go-to resource for maintenance and operations on control-related problems, translating deep system knowledge into practical fixes
  • Project execution - help direct maintenance, operations, and contract personnel through implementation, keeping projects on track from concept to start-up
  • Supervisory scope - grows with your experience and demonstrated capability
Skills and Qualification:
  • B.S. in Electrical or Chemical Engineering
  • 5+ years in a related engineering role, including 2+ years in a process industry environment
  • Hands-on experience with ABB 800xA or Honeywell TDC 3000
  • Familiarity with Allen-Bradley, GE, or Siemens PLC platforms (preferred)
  • Exposure to the full lifecycle of automation project implementation - not just commissioning, but the planning and support that comes before and after
  • Working knowledge of the IT/OT overlap: Windows environments, disaster recovery, networking, OSIsoft PI, GE Plant Applications, SQL Server, VMware
  • Comfort with industrial communication protocols - OPC, Modbus RTU, TCP/IP, Serial
  • Solid grounding in instrument-based control loops from end to end
  • The ability to communicate clearly across engineering, maintenance, and operations - this role sits at the intersection of all three
  • A problem-solver's mindset: someone who can balance the urgent with the important and knows how to get both done

Why This Role Is Worth a Look:

Process control roles like this one don't turn over often - the person in this role becomes the specialist for how the plant's automation actually works. If you're an engineer who wants ownership over meaningful systems, a direct line to operational impact, and a team that will lean on your expertise rather than sideline it, this is that kind of position.

For consideration, please submit your resume to View email address on click.appcast.io at Automation Technical Resources LLC. Only candidates not requiring sponsorship will be considered.
