Position OverviewWe are seeking an experienced and detail-oriented Controls Engineer to design, develop, implement, and maintain industrial automation and OT connectivity solutions. In this role, you will be primarily responsible for programming and commissioning Rockwell Automation (Allen-Bradley) control platforms, as well as configuring and managing PTC Kepware (KEPServer/EX) middleware to ensure seamless data communication between shop-floor control devices, SCADA, MES, and enterprise systems.
Key Responsibilities- PLC / HMI / SCADA Programming & Commissioning
Design, develop, test, and deploy PLC logic using Studio 5000 / RSLogix 5000 / 500 for Control Logix, Compact Logix, and Guard Logix platforms.

Manage device drivers, tag addressing, channel optimization, and security certificates within KEPServer/EX. - Industrial Networking & OT Architecture
Configure and troubleshoot industrial communication protocols (Ether Net/IP, CIP, Modbus TCP/RTU, Profinet).
Collaborate with IT/OT teams to implement managed industrial switches (e.g., Cisco, Stratix), VLAN segmentation, NAT routers, and network diagnostics. - Troubleshooting, Maintenance & Compliance
Perform root-cause analysis on hardware, logic, and communication failures to minimize operational downtime.
