Responsibilities
You will manage the tactical deployment of large scale industrial automation technologies, ranging in technical complexity and product maturity from early alpha/beta to mature Generally Available
You will own the tactical execution (onsite coordination of installation and acceptance testing) to achieve the target “go-live” date for each project assigned; delivering independently
You will collaborate with hardware engineering, technical program managers, product managers, and internal customers including site maintenance and operations teams to convert technical requirements into refined deployment execution documents (schedules, Standard Operating Procedures, dependencies, etc.)
You will improve operational metrics and team processes through automation and optimization
You will independently resolve difficult technical problems during deployment, considering operational burden and making appropriate trade-offs between time, quality, and resources
You will create and improve standard work documents and operational guidebooks, and work towards automating or improving team processes
You will influence internal and partner teams towards meeting team level goals
You will develop subject matter expertise in one or more deployment domains
You will mentor junior engineers and participate in technical assessment
You will drive operational excellence initiatives with measurable results
As a Systems Engineer II, a candidate will typically own multiple simultaneous deployments of a single technology across multiple sites or oversee multi-technology deployments within a single site; delivering within documented standards
This role requires a balance of experience both in working with high-complexity industrial technologies, with complex, multi-dependency project management
The ideal candidate is proactive and takes independent initiative in improving system performance and handling end-to-end deployment. In parallel to the execution, candidates will be responsible for driving continuous improvement ideas into both the deployment cycle time (safety, quality and productivity), and will be responsible for sharing engineering design improvements feedback to the hardware engineering and product teams, to simplify the installation
This role will require the ability to build relationships and capture and synthesize the voice of the customer
