We’re working with a growing manufacturer of automated packaging systems that’s looking to bring on a Control System Engineer to take the lead on designing, programming, and commissioning control systems for custom high-speed equipment.

- Strong background with Allen-Bradley (Studio 5000, Factory Talk View) or Siemens (TIA Portal, WinCC).
- Confident with Ladder Logic, Structured Text, and Function Block programming.
- Solid understanding of industrial controls — VFDs, sensors, pneumatics, and motion systems.
- Skilled at troubleshooting electrical and automation issues during build and testing.
- Familiar with AutoCAD Electrical and industry standards (UL, NEC, NFPA).
- Knowledge of Ethernet/IP, Modbus, or Profinet networks.
- Design and program PLCs and HMIs for automated packaging systems.
- Take projects from concept through commissioning, owning your work end-to-end.
- Debug, test, and fine-tune systems during build and acceptance.
- Work with cross-functional teams to ensure smooth integration.
- Keep software documentation and sequences of operation up to date.
- Provide remote and on-site support to service teams.
- Contribute ideas to improve standardization, performance, and reliability.
