Work with mechanical designers and controls technicians to resolve issues and guide best practices.
Coordinate with controls resources to ensure that hardware, software, and the related documentation stay in sync via appropriate change management tools and processes.

Experience programming automated machines with controls logic and configuring controls networks.
Experience in producing detailed definitions and associated documentation of controls system architecture.
Experience in specifying and selecting and configuring compatible controls hardware to construct controls systems.
Excellent problem solving and decision-making skills demonstrated using advanced data analysis.
Experience with AutoCAD Electrical and AutoCAD Vault.
