Location: Fort Wayne, Indiana, United States
Industry: Automotive Manufacturing
Role Type: Controls / Automation / MES Engineering
We are seeking an experienced Controls / MES Engineer to support a ground-up manufacturing automation implementation for a major automotive manufacturer in Warren, Michigan.
This is primarily a new-build development and implementation role, not a sustaining or maintenance position. The engineer will be responsible for designing, programming, integrating, and commissioning controls and manufacturing systems, with a strong focus on Rockwell Studio 5000, Ignition, and PLC-to-MES integration.
The ideal candidate has personally taken automation systems from initial design through commissioning and production launch and can demonstrate hands-on experience developing PLC, HMI/SCADA, and MES functionality rather than only modifying or troubleshooting existing systems.
The strongest candidate will have experience building controls systems from the ground up, including PLC programming, Ignition development, and PLC-to-MES integration.
This position is best suited for an engineer who has built and commissioned new manufacturing systems rather than someone whose background is primarily production support or maintenance.

For positions requiring a federal security clearance, your clearance level must be clearly identified on your resume.
North Point Technology, a Woman Owned Small-Business based in Reston, VA, was formed in 2005 with the belief that small business plays an integral role in our government's defense mission.
The overarching dilemma facing many of the most essential federal mission systems is the inability to assemble and retain teams of highly skilled and driven technical engineers. Traditionally, the scope of these programs demand structure and stability at a scale that is only possible from one of a few large proven organizations. These organizations typically come with significant overhead. This overhead, along with their size, can restrict these organizations from recruiting and retaining the most capable members of the workforce.
North Point Technology takes aim at solving this problem by recruiting highly skilled and motivated technologists, while retaining them by providing excellent compensation and benefits. We foster a culture of innovation by hiring like-minded engineers who have passion for their work and the mission. With our efficient business model, we can attract and retain top talent to facilitate critical mission needs.
