## Description

This role will align with our Manufacturing & Operations practice and fall under the Manufacturing Systems sub-offering.

Manufacturing & Operations professionals help our clients achieve their ambitions for digital transformation within their core manufacturing and operations throughout the full lifecycle of their assets. With domain expertise across consulting and technology they unlock new sources of opex and capex efficiency and effectiveness.

Manufacturing Systems Systems Engineers enable Manufacturing Modernization with deep specialization in Execution systems (MES/ MOM), Automation, and Plant data models.

THE WORK:

 * Own the migration of heritage CygNet SCADA logic onto the modern Ignition platform, defining the script-migration path and converting and mapping heritage scripts, logic, and data
 * Work within the program's defined Ignition database and UDT structure so that migrations align to the target data model rather than being ported in isolation
 * Own the enterprise integration architecture and patterns across REST/API, messaging (Kafka), and .NET, bridging the Ignition platform to enterprise systems and the historian/PI (AVEVA) layer
 * Honor the hybrid UDT and SQL design, keeping external calls off the operational hot path
 * Lead integration readiness and own integrations through each regional cutover into live operations
 * Validate migration and integration correctness against operational behavior and edge cases
 * Enable and support the delivery teams applying the migration path and integration patterns at scale
 * Document conversions, mappings, integration patterns, and edge cases for reuse
