You will lead the electrical and controls scope of assigned projects. Project focus will be implementation of PLC based automation in Corning's manufacturing plants and processes.
Key Responsibilities
Design and integrate PC and PLC process and automation controls into robust manufacturing environment
Develop and improve capability of manufacturing systems for seamless part tracking, measurements, process control and data analysis. (SCADA)
Integrate with project managers, vendors and division engineering to develop and implement control systems with state-of-the-art manufacturing capacity
Dramatically advance productivity gains through control software and hardware design implementations
Collect and interpret control project needs from a variety of sources
Actively participate in all phases of the project including design, fabrication, off-line integration and testing, installation, production start-up support, training of plant personnel, and technology transfer
Independently follow construction of equipment in vendors’ facilities
Development and deploy process and automation controls on global scale
Design complete systems to control stability of thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, mechanical, motion, chemical, robotics, power, molecular structure, multi-state physics, and electromechanical systems
Test validity of solutions that use traditional and advanced control
Develop documentation including requirements, design, test plan, and user guide
Report on project activities on a pre-determined basis. Ensure results meet the customer’s requirements as well as applicable national and international equipment safety standards
Mentor and promote controls development best practices
Ensure coding standard compliance through Peer Code Reviews
Enhance centralized software libraries
Prepare, present technical updates in public forums
Must be available for significant travel, primarily domestic, to multiple locations to support business needs. International travel could be required as well. Required Education
BS in Electrical/Computer Engineering
5-10 years of experience in Industrial Controls
Manufacturing Systems Level Expertise (MES/SCADA and all layers to the machine)
Software/Controls programming experience with PLC’s, HMI’s (hardware/software), SCADA especially Rockwell, Siemens, and Omron
Experience with HMI and SCADA systems primarily FT View, Optix, Ignition, iFix
Well versed in electrical engineering principles
Understanding of PID and advanced control implementation
Capability to design, develop and deliver fully integrated machine and motion control, automation, and process machine systems to manufacturing
Able to effectively leverage external machine builders and system integrators to design, develop, and deploy integrated manufacturing systems to global manufacturing facilities
Understanding of electrical panel layout, schematic design, ladder logic programming, and system testing and troubleshooting. Basic drafting skills
Familiarity of logic-based programming. PLC and IEC base programming structure including ladder logic, function blocks, structured text, and sequential flowchart desirable.
Familiar with Machine Safety Design principles per ISO 13849 -1&2
Individuals must be capable of executing project assignments, in a cross-functional team based environment
Rigor in experimental execution and analysis
Experience designing and implementing industrial communication technologies (Ethernet/IP, EtherCAT, Profinet)
Desired Experiences
Familiarity with machine vision acquisition and analysis
Knowledge of programming languages such as C#, Python, HTML, MATLAB
Controls/Electrical Experience in Manufacturing
Knowledge of equipment engineering, process support and debug
Ability to lead technical teams as part of a larger project
Familiarity with Fanuc and ABB robot programming
