Control Engineer

Saint Paul, MN, USA

Remote (Location Specific)

80k-$120k, DOE

Job Number: 6440

Are you an experienced Control Engineer ready to take on exciting challenges in industrial automation? This opportunity offers a dynamic blend of hands-on engineering, cutting-edge technology, and flexible work arrangements. If you have expertise in PLC/HMI systems—especially Allen-Bradley—this role could be your perfect fit.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Growth Opportunities: Regular performance reviews with potential for salary increases and bonuses.
  • Comprehensive Benefits:
    • 401(k) with up to 4% employer match.
    • Health insurance (50% of employee premium covered).
    • Generous paid time off.
  • Flexible Work Setup: Hybrid remote, with only 2 days on-site.
  • Minimal Travel: Less than 25% travel to other project sites.

About the Role:
This position focuses on working directly with industrial control systems, including PLC upgrades, HMI integration, and troubleshooting in automation projects such as airport baggage handling systems. It’s a hands-on role ideal for someone who thrives in dynamic environments and enjoys solving complex technical problems.

What You’ll Do:

  • Upgrade and optimize PLC hardware/software (Rockwell Allen-Bradley focus).
  • Design and integrate HMI systems with OEM setups.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve issues in industrial control systems.
  • Collaborate with electrical and mechanical teams for seamless project execution.
  • Manage networks and control data to support project success.
  • Represent the company professionally with clients and stakeholders.

Required Experience:

  • PLC/HMI Programming: 2–3 years of hands-on experience (Rockwell Allen-Bradley required, Schneider is a plus).
  • Familiarity with HMI platforms (Wonderware, Ignition, FactoryTalk).
  • Networking and virtualization experience (Windows Server, VMWare).
  • Strong skills in Excel for reporting and analysis.
  • Cisco networking skills would be a plus.

Requirements to Apply:

  • Live within commuting distance of Saint Paul, MN (on-site work required 2 days/week).
  • Authorized to work in the US and able to pass a background check.
  • Reliable transportation and willingness to travel (20%).
  • Comfortable with occasional irregular hours (some nights, no regular weekends).
