Essential skills

Keywords to find in a CV

Tech (priority):OPC UA, MQTT, Sparkplug B, Node-RED, Kepware, OPCRouter,HighByte,HiveMQ, PLC / SCADA, Ignition, Grafana, Modbus /Profinet,edge connectivity, industrial protocols.

Experience

How to find and screen

• Prioritize real shopfloor / PLC / SCADA time over pure IT — this role lives onthe floor.
• Core stack: OPC UA + MQTT + Kepware / Ignition; probe depth on at leasttwo of these.
• Ask them to explain a UNS, or how they'd normalize data from three differentmachine brands.
• Lower grade (GG2.2) so slightly less experience is fine — hands‑onconnectivity is non‑negotiable.

Benefits

The gist

The OT-side hands. Gets the machines talking, gets the data off the floor, and builds the supervision dashboards. The most shopfloor-heavy role on the pod.
