  • Apply hands-on understanding of controls engineering, including PLCs, HMIs, system testing, and commissioning best practices.
  • Communicate clearly across functions and customers to drive alignment.
  • Resolve issues decisively and keep initiatives on track from kickoff through closeout.
Preferred Background
  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or a related technical discipline.
  • Experience with process improvement methods such as Lean or continuous improvement.
  • Exposure to field implementation or commissioning support.
