🚀 Automation Engineer (DeltaV → 800xA) | Long-Term Project | Onsite – NC

We’re partnering with a specialized automation consulting group supporting a large-scale system modernization initiative — and they’re looking to bring on Automation Engineers with DeltaV experience who are ready to expand into new platforms.

This is not a maintenance role — this is true system transformation work.

🔧 What You’ll Be Doing

• Supporting a major control system upgrade (DeltaV → 800xA environment)
• Converting and building control strategies for process systems (including fermentation)
• Assisting with system configuration, commissioning, and startup activities
• Collaborating with senior engineers to deliver modernized, scalable automation systems

🎯 Why This Role Stands Out

• Opportunity to expand beyond DeltaV into 800xA (highly marketable skillset)
• Work on a long-term, high-impact project (~2 years)
• Be part of a small, high-caliber engineering team (quality over volume)
• Gain exposure to system upgrades vs. day-to-day support work
• Strong technical leadership onsite to support growth

✅ What We’re Looking For

• ~3+ years of DeltaV (Emerson) experience
• Background in automation / controls engineering
• Experience with:
• Batch processes / configuration
• Commissioning / startup
• Process control systems
• Exposure to regulated or industrial environments (pharma, biotech, chemical, etc.)
• Ability to work onsite in North Carolina

➕ Nice to Have

• Any exposure to 800xA (ABB)
• Experience with system upgrades or migrations
• Familiarity with fermentation or process manufacturing environments

📍 Logistics

• Location: Onsite in North Carolina
• Duration: ~24-month engagement
• Schedule: 40 hours/week
• Start: Rolling (initial hire ASAP, additional hires over coming months)

💬 Who This Is Perfect For

This is ideal for an engineer who:

• Wants to break out of a single-system career path
• Is looking for long-term project stability
• Enjoys hands-on engineering + learning new platforms
• Wants to be part of meaningful system upgrades — not just support tickets
