Job Details

We are looking for an experienced Control Systems Engineer - Field Engineering to join our growing team. This role is focused on the design, configuration, testing, and commissioning of AC and DC drive systems, PLC/HMI automation systems, and rotating machinery. You will work closely with senior engineers and project managers to deliver safe, efficient, and innovative solutions across industries such as mining, metals, plastics, utilities, and manufacturing.

This is a hands-on engineering position that combines technical expertise, problem-solving, and fieldwork. You will have opportunities to contribute to a wide variety of projects, from small system upgrades to large-scale automation deployments.
What You'll Do

• Support end-to-end projects involving AC and DC drives, PLCs, HMIs, and automation systems.
• Assist in the design, assembly, programming, testing, and commissioning of new and upgraded systems.
• Program and configure PLCs (Siemens, Allen-Bradley) using multiple languages including Ladder Logic, Structured Text, and Function Block Diagram.
• Develop and configure HMI operator interfaces for process monitoring, alarms, and operator control.
• Work on drive applications including speed and torque control, PID process loops (pressure, temperature, flow, speed), hoists, winders, and pump/fan control systems.
• Integrate industrial communication protocols such as Modbus TCP/RTU, Profibus, Profinet, and EtherNet/IP.
• Collaborate with project managers, vendors, and customers to meet project specifications, delivery deadlines, and commissioning schedules.
• Participate in on-site installation, testing, troubleshooting, and customer training/support.
• Follow established engineering best practices, industry standards (UL, NFPA), and company safety procedures.
• Progress toward independent project ownership as knowledge and experience grow.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or Engineering Technology.
• 5-7 years of relevant control systems engineering experience.
• Strong hands-on background with AC/DC drives, PLCs, HMIs, and rotating machinery.
• Experience with Siemens S7 family (S7-1500, S7-1200) and Allen-Bradley ControlLogix, CompactLogix, and MicroLogix platforms.
• Familiarity with SCADA systems such as Wonderware or Ignition (preferred).
• Experience with control loop design and PID loop tuning.
• Knowledge of industrial electrical design standards (UL, NFPA).
• Strong troubleshooting and critical thinking skills, with the ability to diagnose and resolve issues in the field.
• Excellent communication and organizational skills; ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office and standard engineering tools.
• Willingness to travel overnight as needed for project work and commissioning.

Why Join Us

• Diverse projects: Contribute to automation and control solutions across multiple industries.
• Professional growth: Progress from shadowing senior engineers to leading independent projects.
• Innovation culture: Be part of a team that values safety, teamwork, continuous improvement, and technical excellence.
• Customer impact: Work directly with clients to deliver mission-critical solutions that improve performance and reliability.

If you are a motivated Control Systems Engineer who thrives in challenging, hands-on environments and enjoys working on complex automation projects, we'd love to hear from you.
