* Lead and prioritize actions on escalated issues
* Coach Controls Engineer III; develop training content; serve as named platform owner
* Order long-lead items, assign specialty items, and close out punchlist and lessons learned
* Travel to customer sites for design review, commissioning readiness and customer acceptance — approximately 20% of time.
EDUCATION and/or EXPERIENCE:

* 7-10 years in controls engineering, including architecture of multi-controller solutions
* Experience defining diagnostics, telemetry and safety approaches

* Estimates and risk identification accurate against actual project outcome
* Standards adherence across projects; review findings driven to closure
