Integrate PLC systems with SCADA/HMI platforms such as Ignition and FactoryTalk.
Configure and validate industrial communication protocols including Modbus/IP, Modbus/UDP, Ethernet/IP, BACnet, MQTT, and OPC UA.
Produce high-quality redlines, as-built documentation, and commissioning reports.
Coordinate with Lead PLC Technicians, PLC Engineers, and project managers to ensure alignment on technical deliverables.

Qualifications:

5+ years of hands-on experience with PLC systems in industrial or construction environments.
Expert-level proficiency with Allen-Bradley PLC platforms; strong working knowledge of Siemens or Schneider Electric systems.

Demonstrated expertise in PLC processor redundancy configuration and validation.
Strong understanding of industrial networking, communication protocols, and distributed architectures.
Proven leadership, mentorship, and communication skills.
Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, network diagrams, and mechanical plans.
Willingness to travel to project sites (95%)
