Full Job Description

We are looking for:

  • A Digital Engineer to join the team deploying our new Manufacturing Execution System (MES) and process data platform at selected plants.
  • These sites are installing new digital tools to capture, contextualise, manage, and query manufacturing data - turning raw process signals into reliable analytics that improve plant performance.
  • You'll sit at the intersection of operations, automation, and IT, and be the person who makes the data trustworthy enough to act on.


We can count on you for:

  • Supporting the hands-on rollout of the MES at the site - from initial deployment through configuration, testing, and go-live.

  • Helping shape and drive the plant's digital strategy, connecting the MES rollout to the site's broader manufacturing improvement goals.

  • Acting as the site Single Point of Contact for questions and issues on the process information / historian software (e.g. data historian, MES, and related process data tools).

  • Coaching site data teams through manufacturing improvement projects, so they can operate and extend the new tools once the rollout team moves on.

  • Working alongside data scientists, process engineers, and automation & instrumentation specialists to refine tags, instrumentation, and data structures so the right data is captured at the right quality.

  • Training site personnel on the new software and providing both on-the-floor and remote support to your own site and our other plants during their rollouts.

  • Writing scripts to deliver data with the quality, consistency, and format required to feed advanced analytics and models.

  • Defining and setting up data quality, availability, and consistency metrics - and driving the testing process that validates the data before the business relies on it.

  • Contributing actively to the internal data community, sharing knowledge and best practices (for example, technical articles on MES software and lessons learned from rollout).


You can count on us for:

  • A real opportunity to grow across networking, industrial automation, programming, and IT while working in a live manufacturing environment. Structured training and development is provided, and you'll be part of a global team rolling out the same tools across multiple sites.


You will bring:

  • A bachelor's degree in Engineering or Computer Science.
  • 5 years of relevant professional experience.

  • Experience in at least one of: data collection / historians, PLCs, HMIs, DCSs, software solutions, or electrical & instrumentation.

  • A practical, floor-facing mindset - comfortable moving between the control room, the plant floor, and a laptop full of scripts.


You will get:
  • Competitive salary and benefits package.
  • The U.S. base salary range reasonably expected to be paid for this position is $98,720-$123,400per year. Since actual compensation packages are based on a variety of factors unique to each candidate we may ultimately pay more or less than the posted base salary range. Total compensation for this role also includes bonus and/or other incentives.
  • 16, or more, weeks of maternity/paternity and co-parenting leave, according to local regulations
  • Training platform for all employees
  • Free well-being sessions (physical and psychological)
  • 401-K Match
