We are bringing our SCADA and BMS platform in house rather than farming it out. As the SCADA and BMS Engineer, you will own that platform: the Ignition environment, the screens operators actually use, the historian behind them, and the alarm and dashboard layer that tells us whether a site is healthy. You will design it, stand it up, and maintain it.
The reason this role matters: a data center is a machine, and the SCADA system is how we know whether that machine is healthy. A bad system means alarms nobody trusts, thermal events nobody saw coming, and operators flying blind at 2am. A good one means we catch problems before they become outages. Just as important, we are building sites faster than most companies build one, so the templates and standards you set on the first site are what let us go from site to site without rebuilding the stack each time.
You will work closely with the network, security, and controls teams to get data into the system, and with site operations to make sure what they see on screen is what they need. You will also be on the hook when something breaks after hours.
This role is ideally based in our San Francisco, Long Beach, or Houston offices, with full-time onsite expectations outside of bi-weekly WFH Fridays. Regular travel to active sites is a necessary part of this role.
That said, we will make exceptions for truly exceptional talent if you live outside one of our hubs. If you’re the right person for this role, we’ll have a conversation about what works.
