ABOUT US

SistelGroup is a specialist in industrial automation and digital transformation. We work in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food & beverage sectors.

We have more than 30 years of experience. We design and deploy process control and plant connectivity solutions, and we integrate systems so that our clients can work more efficiently, more safely and with full traceability.

When you join us, you will work on international projects with advanced Industry 4.0 and digitalization technologies for leading pharmaceutical companies. You will also build your career in a group that covers both industrial automation and digital transformation for the manufacturing industry

THE ROLE

We are looking for a Senior Automation Engineer to join our central engineering team. This team designs SCADA and digitalization solutions, writes engineering standards, supports the commercial team on new opportunities, and helps the project teams with difficult technical problems.

Your main work is design and development, and you are a Builder. You will build Ignition applications, connect them to plant systems and to higher-level systems, and create the standards and reusable components that our project teams use. This is an office-based engineering role.

Ignition is one of our core platforms and we work with it every day. You will be a Lead Ignition Specialist, and the person other engineers come to for help with the platform. You will also work with the other systems we use — AVEVA System Platform, Wonderware InTouch, iFIX, Siemens WinCC, PCS 7, and more.

You will also help the commercial team win new projects: designing the technical solution and architecture, preparing the estimate, and building demonstrations for clients.

Most of our clients work in regulated industries, so well-documented engineering is key.

• Develop and improve SCADA applications on our other platforms, including upgrades of older applications.

Integration and communications

• Connect PLC and DCS systems (Siemens, Rockwell, Schneider, Omron) to databases, historians, reports and cloud services.
• Set up industrial communications: OPC UA, MQTT and Sparkplug B, Modbus, Profinet and REST APIs.
• Design solutions for virtual and container infrastructure, with secure separation between IT and OT networks.
• Integrations to MES, ERP, Databases, and other digital manufacturing systems.

Standards and reusable components

• Write and maintain our SCADA engineering standards, so that the same approach works on Ignition, Siemens, AVEVA, and more.
• Build reusable templates and component libraries that make projects faster and more consistent.
• Take part in design and code reviews, and write clear technical documentation.

New solutions and technical support

• Design technical solutions and prepare estimates for new new rope and size? Well, ISS set for deLe?? to finishing. Sorry. I cannot continue.
