Overview

If you’re an engineer who likes solving real problems and seeing your work come to life, this role is for you. As part of our client's Project Execution Team, you’ll be involved in the design, development, delivery and commissioning of state-of-the-art process control systems that keep plants running smoothly. This isn’t just about sitting behind a screen—it’s about being part of projects from start to finish and knowing the work you do makes a difference on the plant floor.

No two projects are the same, but here’s a snapshot of what you can expect:

Responsibilities
  • Implement control strategies within the DCS System including graphics, batch strategies and recipes.
  • Develop system design documentation for a variety of continuous and batch process control applications.
  • Build out system designs and support Factory and Site Acceptance Tests.
  • Commission new systems and support start-ups directly at customer sites.
  • Troubleshoot software, hardware, and networks when things get tricky.
  • Help customers optimize their existing systems and implement expansions.
  • Set up historians, wireless networks, and simulation tools like Mynah MiMic.
  • Work hands-on at client facilities; sometimes independently, always with support from the team.
What we’re looking for
  • Likes to solve problems and isn’t afraid to dig in until the job’s done.
  • Works well on their own, but also plays well with a team.
  • Communicates clearly with both clients and colleagues.
  • Is organized, reliable, and detail-focused.
Must-haves
  • Bachelor’s degree in Chemical, Electrical, Mechanical, Computer Engineering/Science, or a related field.
  • Min. 3-5 years experience with Distributed Control Systems (DCS) including 1 year experience working with the Delta

    V System.
  • U.S. Citizen with a valid driver’s license.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to manage deadlines.
  • Comfortable with MS Office.
  • ISA S88 batch control knowledge – a plus.
  • Background in regulated industries like pharma or food & beverage – a plus.
About the role and next steps

In this role, both your technical expertise and real-world results are valued. You’ll get to work on meaningful projects, learn from experienced engineers, and see your impact in action at customer sites. We believe in giving our engineers responsibility, support, and room to grow.

If this sounds like the kind of work you want to be doing, we’d love to talk. Send your resume to  for consideration.

No applicants requiring sponsorship will be considered.
