This is a client-facing delivery and consulting role: you will lead technical architecture, hands-on implementation, and commissioning of industrial control systems, virtualization platforms, and OT cybersecurity controls. As a senior member of the team, you will balance deep technical execution with mentorship, proposal support, and standardization of repeatable engineering practices. The ideal candidate is a genuine IT/OT generalist - equally comfortable in a control system cabinet, a hypervisor console, and a network segmentation design review. Key Responsibilities Industrial Control Systems (ICS) * Design, configure, and commission distributed control and SCADA systems, including DeltaV and FactoryTalk environments. * Lead and document Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT) in line with ASTM E2500 and client validation requirements. * Integrate control systems with plant historians, OT networks, and supervisory layers while preserving system integrity and validated states. Virtualization & Infrastructure * Architect and deploy virtualization and hyperconverged infrastructure using Proxmox VE and VMware, including cluster design, storage, and high availability. * Specify and stand up server and network hardware (e.g., Dell PowerEdge R660 class) for industrial and edge deployments. * Develop standardized, repeatable build guides, networking diagrams, and configuration baselines for client and internal use. OT Cybersecurity * Assess and harden OT environments against recognized frameworks, including SANS ICS Critical Controls and IEC 62443. * Design and implement network segmentation, secure remote access, patch and backup strategies, and asset inventory practices for OT. * Support OT cybersecurity assessments and roadmap development, translating findings into prioritized, qualified remediation plans Client Delivery & Consulting * Serve as a technical lead on client engagements, from scoping and design through implementation, testing, and handover. * Contribute to proposals, statements of work, and technical estimates for Life Sciences and Critical Infrastructure opportunities. * Produce clear, audit-ready documentation and present technical findings to client stakeholders ranging from plant engineers to IT leadership. Leadership & Standardization * Mentor junior engineers and review technical deliverables for quality and consistency. * Drive reusable engineering standards, templates, and tooling that improve delivery efficiency and accuracy., In the first year, this engineer will lead the technical delivery of multiple client engagements, establish or refine reusable build and assessment standards, and serve as a trusted technical advisor across both the internal team and client stakeholders.
