We are seeking a Manufacturing Systems Integration Engineer to design, implement, and maintain complex integrations across Operational Technology (OT) and Information Technology (IT) systems in a global manufacturing environment. This role requires deep technical expertise in industrial communication protocols, data pipelines, and system interoperability, as well as strong project leadership and change‑management skills to drive adoption and ensure successful deployment of digital manufacturing solutions.

You will work with technologies such as Kepware OPC servers, Ignition SCADA, Siemens Opcenter MES, ZNT‑PAC, Maximo CMMS, AVEVA PI historian, MS SQL Server, SSIS, SSRS, Power BI, Databricks, and message bus architectures (AMQP) to deliver robust, secure, and scalable solutions.

• Design and implement system integrations between OT platforms and IT systems using OPC UA, AMQP‑based message buses, REST APIs, SQL, and custom connectors.
• Develop and maintain Ignition SCADA integrations for real‑time visualization and control.
• Integrate MES (Siemens Opcenter, ZNT‑PAC) with upstream/downstream systems for production execution and traceability.

• Lead integration projects from requirements gathering through deployment, ensuring on‑time and on‑budget delivery.
• Coordinate with cross‑functional teams (IT, OT, manufacturing, quality, and data engineering) to align on objectives and deliverables.
• Drive change‑management activities, including communication plans, training, and user adoption strategies.

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
• 5+ years of experience in manufacturing systems integration or OT/IT convergence.
• Strong hands‑on experience with:
  • Ignition SCADA configuration and scripting (Python/Java‑based).
  • MES platforms (Siemens Opcenter, ZNT‑PAC) integration.
• Proficiency in SQL Server, SSIS, and ETL processes for data integration.
• Knowledge of industrial communication protocols (OPC UA, MQTT, Modbus, REST APIs).

• Software development experience in Python, Java, or .NET for custom integrations.
• Experience with containerization (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes) for deployment.
• Familiarity with ISA‑95, ISA‑88, and Industry 4.0 standards.
• Exposure to machine learning workflows using manufacturing data.
• PMP or similar project management certification is a plus.
• Experience with change‑management frameworks is a plus.

• Travel to manufacturing sites (domestic/international) for discovery, deployment, and support. Must be available for significant travel, primarily domestic, to multiple locations; international travel could be required as well.
• Flexibility to support cutovers, validations, or critical events outside standard hours.
