Senior Controls Engineer - Automation

$120k - $150k

Strativ Group

Job Description

Senior Controls Engineer – Automation

$120,000 - $150,000 + Equity

Greater Pittsburgh

Work authorization:

We are not able to support OPT / STEM OPT candidates for this position.

We can consider H-1B transfers for this role.

I’m supporting a high-growth energy-storage manufacturer as it's looking to double the size of its Controls Engineering department to help scale its US production facility.

You’ll be responsible for:

  • Programming and troubleshooting Siemens or Allen-Bradley PLCs
  • Developing HMI/SCADA systems
  • Commissioning new production equipment and completing major retrofits
  • Supporting FAT, SAT, startup and production ramp
  • Integrating PLCs with robotics, vision and other automated systems

What you need:

You should be able to take functional requirements and independently write PLC code from scratch - 7+ years commercial experienced required

Expertise in either Siemens or Rockwell is sufficient, with training available on the other platform.

Depending on your experience, you could support web handling, batching, automated welding or discrete assembly.

Why consider it?

  • Work on new lines, retrofits and machines developed internally
  • Help shape future controls standards
  • Varied integrator-style work with considerably less travel
  • Stock options, strong benefits and relocation support

Get in touch to learn more.
