Job description

Controls Engineer

Location: Scarborough

Employment Type: Full-time/Permanent

Overview Lead the design, standardization, and migration of control system hardware/software as we unify multiple controller platforms into a single Soft PLC architecture. This role focuses on building repeatable, scalable, well‑documented control products, not one‑off custom systems.

Key Responsibilities

Product Development & Standardization

  • Develop standard, configurable control system architectures, reusable code libraries, and HMI templates.
  • Maintain standard BOMs, controlled drawings, and documented functionality.
  • Apply DFM, DFS, and configuration management to ensure consistent production and serviceability.

Platform Unification & Migration

  • Convert legacy control applications into standardized Soft PLC product applications.
  • Execute HMI migrations using consistent UI patterns.
  • Manage changes through formal ECR/ECN/ECO processes.

Quality, Validation & Release

  • Implement advanced control features within the standard product architecture.
  • Support stage‑gate development, rollout planning, and cross‑functional integration.
  • Define and run standard test procedures, validation protocols, and acceptance criteria.
  • Participate in design reviews, DFMEA, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement.

Qualifications

Education & Experience

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Controls, Automation, or related engineering field.
  • 5+ years in industrial automation or control systems engineering, with experience developing repeatable, productized solutions.
  • PLC/Soft PLC programming experience within a formal product development lifecycle.
  • Strong background in BOM/drawing release, configuration control, and engineering change processes.
  • Familiarity with Modbus, Ethernet/IP, BACnet, and industrial testing methodologies.
