Implementation Engineer -Industrial Automation and Digital Transformation

Overview

As an Implementation Engineer – IoT & IIoT Integration at Altizon, you will be a key contributor in deploying the DFX Platform at customer manufacturing sites. This is a high-travel, customer-facing role where you will support product demonstrations, run user acceptance tests (UAT), assist in proof-of-concept trials, and ensure that industrial IoT data flows from shop-floor hardware all the way to Altizon's DFX platform.

We are looking for an engineer with around 2 years of experience who is eager to learn the industrial IoT space, thrives in dynamic customer environments, and has the drive to manage project tasks and coordinate with customer teams to ensure successful, on-time delivery.

This role involves approximately 75% travel to customer sites across North America.

Key Responsibilities

• Plant Assessment: Conduct plant walks to map production lines, machine types, control architectures, and site network topology (OT/IT segmentation, connectivity to edge and cloud). Produce a Site Assessment Report with a recommended rollout approach.
• Data Acquisition Strategy: Evaluate PLC/SCADA environments and determine the right data path — OPC UA server configuration, gateway bridging, historian extraction, or other methods.
• Implementation & Integration: Configure DFX solutions across the data pipeline (acquisition → processing → visualization). Integrate with PLCs, SCADA, historians, and machine interfaces via OPC UA, Modbus, MQTT, and REST.
• Validation & Troubleshooting: Define and execute data validation protocols. Troubleshoot issues across edge, network, and cloud layers. Own go-live readiness and hypercare.
• Stakeholder Enablement: Deliver on-site demos to plant managers and sponsors. Run operator and supervisor training sessions tailored to shop floor context.
• Documentation & Collaboration: Maintain site notes, network diagrams, and runbooks. Work with CSE and product teams on escalations and feedback. Support pre-sales RFI/RFP responses.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Hands-on plant experience — comfortable with plant walks, reading schematics, and working alongside controls and maintenance teams
• Working knowledge of PLC platforms (Siemens, Allen Bradley, or equivalent) and SCADA systems
• Practical experience with OPC UA; familiarity with Modbus, MQTT, or similar industrial protocols
• Understanding of OT network architecture (IT/OT segmentation, industrial Ethernet)
• Proven ability to deliver technical demos and training to mixed audiences
• Bachelor's degree in Engineering or related field — or equivalent hands-on experience
