Role SummaryYou’ll design and deliver responsive control solutions across diverse machine applications. Using a common “toolbox” of components and patterns, you’ll take projects from customer discovery through PLC/HMI/Motion/Network programming, to validation and startup (typically day trips). Most projects complete in < 6 weeks, so you’ll see your work move from concept to production quickly. You’ll collaborate with a principal engineer, fellow engineers, drafters, PMs, and technicians—ideal for someone who takes pride in clean, well‑documented code and enjoys learning new tools.
What You’ll DoLead full life‑cycle controls projects: discovery, architecture, I/O mapping, programming, bench test, FAT, on‑site startup.
Program PLCs (IEC 61131‑3—Structured Text & Ladder), HMIs, motion/servo systems, and industrial networks.
Build reusable libraries/toolbox components and maintain disciplined versioning and documentation.
Integrate field devices (sensors, drives, pneumatics), tune motion, and validate machine safety per applicable standards.
Travel for short startups/service (generally day trips; overall < 15%).
Partner cross‑functionally to refine requirements, review schematics, and hand off to production and support.
Solid electronics fundamentals; comfortable with a multimeter and tracing signals.
Applied programming aptitude (clean style, basic algorithms/complexity, disciplined documentation).
Proficiency in one or more languages: C/C++/C#/Python/Java/JavaScript/Ruby.
Comfort with Linux/Windows command line, spreadsheets/data normalization, and Boolean logic.
Problem‑isolation mindset, pragmatism (seek resolution over perfection), and clear communication with teams & customers.
Willingness to write organized, well‑documented code and learn new stacks quickly.
PLC/HMI/Motion: IEC 61131‑3 (Structured Text & Ladder); CoDeSys/SoMachine on Schneider & Wago; Rockwell/Allen‑Bradley; Mitsubishi (FX/A/Q/iQ); HMI for Schneider (Proface), Red Lion, Mitsubishi, PanelView; SoftMotion; servo systems.
Standards & Schematics: ANSI Y32.2/IEEE & IEC electrical symbols; ANSI/ISA S5.1 P working knowledge of UL508A & NFPA 79.
Networks: Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP, CANopen, J1939.
Commissioning: Startup/troubleshooting of automation systems; calm, customer‑facing guidance.
Broader tech: Databases; web/UI; embedded (PIC/Atmel) in C/C++; assembly; sockets; scripting/CLI automation; VMs/Docker/Kubernetes; Linux build/config; Perl/PHP/regex; IT; REST/OAuth.
Experience: 5+ years strongly preferred for immediate impact and top‑of‑band compensation.
Primarily on‑site in Beaverton, OR; fieldwork spans clean‑rooms to quarries to military sites.
Travel is mostly within driving distance; startups are typically day trips and total travel is generally < 15%.
Base Pay: Up to $125,000 for highly qualified candidates
