Senior Automation Controls Engineer
Normal, IL
Contract: 3-4 months

JOB DESCRIPTION
Responsibilities:

Audit, analyze, and review existing control logic developed across disparate programming standards. Clean up, correct, and optimize the codebase to improve controller and HMI performance while eliminating data noise.
Audit & PLC-to-SCADA Alignment: Review existing Allen-Bradley PLC logic and Ignition gateway setups to isolate specific "pain points" and faulty tag configurations causing data noise or false fault signals.
Data Cleanup Execution: Clean up historical and real-time data pipelines within Ignition, eliminating redundant, erroneous, or low-value data points that skew OPR and downtime tracking.
KPI Mapping: Structure data pipelines to map directly and accurately to MTTR, MTBF, OPR, and bottleneck identification models.
Framework Integration: Utilize Rivian's tracking framework to establish a regular reporting cadence for data integrity progress.
- MTTR (Mean Time to Repair)
