Smart Tech Contracting delivers turnkey BAS & EPMS solutions for mission-critical colocation and hyperscale data centers operating at national program scale. As a Master Systems Integrator (MSI), we unify controls construction (DDC, PLC, SCADA) with software engineering, optimized graphics / UI standards, and program-level governance.
Complex integrations are delivered cleanly, consistently, and fast. Our teams thrive in high-stakes environments where quality control and uptime matters, schedules are compressed, and coordination is everything.
Join us and be part of a team where your voice matters, your work makes an impact, and your growth is a shared priority.
Position Title:SCADA Engineer II – Critical Infrastructure
Position Location:
Remote – United States; limited project-based travel required (On-site presence is primarily for learning-focused field exposure during construction, FAT, IST, commissioning, or directed troubleshooting events) OR Atlanta, GA OR Dallas, TX JOB SUMMARY
The SCADA Engineer – Level II is an early-career individual contributor responsible for supporting the
development, configuration, testing, and commissioning of SCADA systems for mission-critical infrastructure
projects.
This role is remote-first , with intentional on-site exposure designed to help engineers understand system behavior,
commissioning workflows, and field execution before transitioning toward more independent development and
administrative responsibilities. Level II engineers work under the guidance of Senior and Lead SCADA Engineers and
are expected to build strong technical fundamentals through a combination of remote development work and
targeted field learning.
On-site participation is purpose-driven and developmental , focused on understanding how systems are built,
tested, and commissioned — not serving as primary field execution resources.
ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS SCADA Development & Configuration (45%)- Support development and configuration of SCADA systems in accordance with project requirements and established STC standards
- Implement HMI graphics, alarms, data models, and system logic based on defined design intent
- Assist in developing SCADA scripts, templates, and reusable components under guidance
- Translate documented sequences of operation and control narratives into functional SCADA configurations
- Perform testing and validation of assigned SCADA components in development and staging environments
- Support Senior and Lead SCADA Engineers across assigned projects
- Participate in on-site activities during construction and commissioning phases to gain system and workflow familiarity
- Observe and assist with point-to-point checkout, system validation, and coordination with field and commissioning teams
- Participate in design reviews, coordination meetings, and commissioning planning activities
- Document observations, issues, and lessons learned to support continuous improvement
- Support FAT, IST, and commissioning activities as directed, both remotely and on-site
- Assist with troubleshooting during commissioning and live system cutovers under supervision
- Execute test procedures and validate system behavior within assigned scope
- Escalate technical issues appropriately to senior engineers
- Actively develop technical skills in SCADA systems, control concepts, and system integration
- Incorporate feedback from senior engineers to improve execution quality and technical understanding
- Contribute to internal documentation, standards updates, and knowledge-sharing efforts
- Progress toward increased independence in development and system ownership over time
