Description
As an Ignition Engineer at EOSYS, you will be working with small, multi-disciplinary teams to develop Ignition-based solutions for our manufacturing clients. Applications range from standalone SCADA applications to full-scale MES/MOM applications across multiple facilities. EOSYS is a member of the Inductive Automation Integrator Program, and we are rapidly growing our Ignition customer base.
Ignition projects typically range from a few weeks up to 6 months. On some projects, you will also be a part of the project commissioning team that goes onsite to the client. This allows you to see the “fruits of your labor” while also getting to experience unique manufacturing environments such as robotics, automotive assembly, hummus packaging, and even whiskey making. Based on your capabilities and interest, there will be opportunities to learn new skills and technologies as well as advance within the company.
This position operates under a hybrid work model based out of our Smyrna, TN office. The role requires a regular, routine onsite presence for face-to-face collaboration, team meetings, and hands-on projects, combined with the flexibility of partial remote work. Additionally this position requires up to 10% travel to client sites regionally and throughout the continental US.
