What to Expect
Responsible for managing the SCADA HMI integration of manufacturing utility
systems into new and existing facilities to meet the requirements of the Cell
manufacturing processes, including design development, operation, and
maintenance. Strong background in electrical, mechanical and chemical systems
operation is required. Proven ability to develop scalable server architectures
for plant wide SCADA systems with a focus on operator needs and utility usage
reporting to assure the responsiveness, reliability, serviceability, and
efficiency of those systems meets the highest standards.
What You'll Do
Maintain strong integration & communication with all internal and external
stakeholders to ensure lessons learned are integrated into current and
future facilities
Lead project teams in the development of user interface / user experience
(UI/UX) components and architecture
Work closely with PLC development to optimize data exchange and general
system usability
Manage Database, Server, Folder architecture
Support development of high efficiency alarm rationalization techniques
Audits facilities systems performance as well as systems operational
issues/impacts in order to provide process or system changes that can
provide meaningful value
Manages and audits design services performed by consultants including
preparing RFP scope and independent cost estimate, critically reviewing
consultant proposals, negotiating cost, ensuring schedule/budget
compliance, auditing scope conformance and quality, and reviewing
consultant performance
Reviews of Instrumentation & Controls shop drawings and submittals
What You'll Bring
