Job Description: System Integrator

Role Overview: We are looking for contractors to support the configuration, deployment, and troubleshooting of our control system environment. This role focuses on the end-to-end management of signal mapping, artifact generation, and platform debugging.

Note: As this project involves internal, proprietary tools (ESCA), we will provide training; we are looking for candidates with strong foundational experience in industrial control systems who can master internal workflows quickly.

Key Responsibilities:

• System Configuration: Assist in the setup of control frameworks (SLMP), including defining setpoints and logical nodes within our internal environment.
• Signal Mapping: Support the mapping of signals between devices (e.g., ELumina IED-BCU) and HMI interfaces; update interface control documents (ICDs) as required.
• Artifact & Lifecycle Management: Execute build processes for FPGA and system output files, managing manual modifications and handling security-signed artifacts (tar files) in a Simulink-based environment.
• Platform & Network Support: Perform software deployments, monitor system error logs (Linux-based CLI), and utilize Wireshark for network traffic analysis and troubleshooting.
• Collaboration: Work closely with our internal NPI, Automation, and Cybersecurity teams to resolve configuration errors and ensure project milestones are met.

Preferred Technical Foundations:

• Controls Experience: Previous experience with SCADA, HMI configuration, or IED/BCU signal mapping.
• Embedded Systems: Comfortable working in Linux environments, executing CLI commands, and reading system logs.
• Data Structures: Understanding of XML/XSD or similar configuration file formats (helpful for mapping work).
• Troubleshooting/Debugging: Analytical mindset to trace error codes and interpret network traffic (Wireshark familiarity is a strong plus).
• Version Control: Working knowledge of Git for code/configuration management and JIRA/Confluence for task tracking.
