**** JOB SUMMARY
**** Job Profile Summary
** ONEOK is seeking a Pipeline Control Simulation Coordinator who will be responsible for managing and supporting the Pipeline Control Center simulator environment used to prepare pipeline controllers for required training, abnormal operating conditions, emergency response scenarios, and other real-world pipeline control situations. This role will support Pipeline Control training and simulation needs across ONEOK’s NGL console groups by coordinating simulator scheduling, maintaining scenario content, supporting system improvements, and helping ensure training scenarios reflect day-to-day controller experiences.

The Pipeline Control Simulation Coordinator will collaborate closely with Pipeline Control, Pipeline Modeling, SCADA, IT, engineers, lead controllers, and other internal stakeholders to design, test, document, and continuously improve simulation modules before they are placed into production. This position requires strong pipeline operations knowledge, Microsoft 365 proficiency, technical documentation skills, independent problem-solving, and the ability to influence and coordinate across business units with minimal day-to-day oversight.

Experience in pipeline control, operations control, board operations, plant operations, SCADA, simulation tools, reporting, or Power BI may be especially valuable for candidates who understand pipeline operations and enjoy thinking creatively to improve training and system effectiveness.

This salaried position is based at ONEOK Plaza in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and follows a hybrid Monday–Friday work schedule.
