Position Overview:

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated System Analyst to join our dynamic team. The successful candidate will be responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) programming, and Human-Machine Interface (HMI) development. This role requires a deep understanding of industrial automation systems and the ability to translate technical requirements into efficient and effective solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

• SCADA System Development:
• Design, develop, and deploy SCADA systems to monitor and control industrial processes.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to gather requirements and define system specifications.
• Configure SCADA software to collect data from various sensors and devices.
• Implement alarming, data logging, and visualization features within the SCADA system.
• Conduct testing and troubleshooting to ensure the reliability and performance of SCADA systems.
• PLC Programming:
• Develop PLC programs to automate control processes in manufacturing and industrial environments.
• Program PLCs using industry-standard languages such as ladder logic, structured text, and function block diagrams.
• Integrate PLCs with other systems, including SCADA software and enterprise databases.
• Debug and optimize PLC code to enhance system functionality and efficiency.
• Provide technical support for PLC-related issues and assist in resolving operational challenges.
• HMI Development:
• Design and develop intuitive Human-Machine Interface (HMI) applications for operators and technicians.
• Create graphical user interfaces (GUIs) to visualize process data and control system parameters.
• Customize HMI screens to meet specific user requirements and operational needs.
• Implement interactive elements such as buttons, sliders, and alarms within the HMI software.
• Conduct usability testing and gather feedback to improve the user experience of HMI applications.

Qualifications:
