The Field SCADA Engineer is responsible for the deployment, commissioning, and validation of Ignition SCADA systems in mission-critical data center environments.
This role is field-focused and client-facing, requiring extensive travel (50-60%) to support onsite and remote implementation activities.
Work closely with development teams to deploy SCADA packages, conduct point-to-point verification, perform commissioning activities, and ensure successful system turnover to customers.
