Industrial IoT Engineer

About the role

This isn't a maintenance role— it's an opportunity to design and build the connected manufacturing ecosystem that powers one of the world's largest manufacturing operations.

Responsibilities

• Design and Build Industrial IoT Solutions
• Architect and implement Industrial IoT integrations connecting PLCs, robotics, sensors, machine controllers, and production equipment
• Build secure edge-to-cloud data pipelines using technologies including MQTT, OPC-UA, REST APIs, and modern messaging protocols
• Create standardized connectivity frameworks that can be deployed across multiple manufacturing facilities
• Design scalable data models for production, quality, downtime, and machine telemetry
• Develop reusable integration patterns that accelerate future Smart Factory deployments
• Drive Smart Factory Transformation
• Connect manufacturing equipment with enterprise platforms including MES, ERP, and our Execution Operations Platform (EOP)
• Implement material traceability solutions using RFID, barcode, serialization, and machine vision technologies
• Enable real-time production visibility through Control Tower and plant observability platforms
• Support digital twin initiatives that improve operational insight and decision making
• Build event-driven data architectures that power analytics, reporting, and AI initiatives
• Lead Plant Deployments
• Partner with controls engineers, automation vendors, and plant operations teams during equipment installations and production launches
• Participate in Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT)
• Troubleshoot machine communications and integration challenges during commissioning and live production
• Scale successful implementations across multiple manufacturing locations
• Improve Reliability and Performance
• Maintain connectivity, system health, and data quality across manufacturing sites
• Diagnose and resolve communication failures impacting production
• Improve resiliency, fault tolerance, and overall platform reliability
• Continuously optimize Industrial IoT architecture to reduce downtime and improve operational efficiency
