## About the role

Machine Connectivity Across the Fleet: Build and own the connectivity layer across the AM fleet — PC-based machine control systems, PLC-based subsystems, and vendor interfaces alike — including the log, file, and tag-level extraction required where no standard interface exists.

## What they're looking for

- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Controls Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Robotics, Mechatronics, or related field
- 5+ years connecting production manufacturing equipment to higher-level software systems — MES, SCADA, historian, or equipment and data platforms — with direct hands-on ownership of the integration rather than oversight of an integrator
- Demonstrated ability to integrate proprietary or undocumented OEM interfaces — working out log formats, file drops, and vendor data access where no standard protocol is available
- Strong database engineering: relational schema design and SQL fluency, plus practical experience with time-series or historian storage for high-rate machine data. Schema migration and versioning experience required
- Experience designing and operating data pipelines in production — message transport, stream or batch processing, and monitoring of the pipeline itself
- Working proficiency in Python or equivalent for integration, parsing, and data tooling, with version control and code review discipline
