North Point Technology in Warren, Michigan seeks an experienced Ignition Developer to lead a ground‑up manufacturing automation implementation for a major automotive customer. You will design, program, and commission controls and MES integration, with a focus on Rockwell Studio 5000, Ignition, and PLC‑to‑MES communication.

The role emphasizes hands‑on development from design through production launch, building PLCs, HMI/SCADA, and MES interfaces rather than maintenance.

Experience writing PLC programs from scratch for equipment or production lines.
Experience with Inductive Automation Ignition.
Experience developing Ignition screens, tags, scripting, and/or application architecture.
Experience integrating PLCs with MES or manufacturing information systems.
Understanding of work‑order validation, traceability, recipes, and production reporting.
Experience commissioning automated manufacturing equipment.
