Industrial HMI Engineer

We are seeking an experienced Industrial HMI Engineer to design, develop, and maintain human‑machine interface (HMI) systems for complex industrial and process automation environments. The ideal candidate will have hands‑on expertise in Rockwell Automation Factory Talk View SE
, Factory Talk Linx
, and integration with Compact Logix / Control Logix PLC platforms. This role bridges operations, controls engineering, and process visualization—ensuring safe, reliable, and intuitive system interfaces for operators and engineers.

• Design & Development
  • Architect and implement new HMI applications using Factory Talk View SE (distributed and standalone configurations).
  • Configure and optimize Factory Talk Linx
    , Factory Talk Directory
    , and RSLinx Enterprise communications.
  • Develop P&-based process screens, navigation structures, alarm banners, and trend displays.
  • Implement dynamic graphics, tag‑based visibility, security‑based user interfaces, and custom scripts.
• Integration & Commissioning
  • Integrate HMI systems with Rockwell Compact Logix and Control Logix PLCs via Ethernet
    /IP.
  • Coordinate with PLC programmers to map tags, alarms, and state/mode logic.
  • Support HMI deployment on operator workstations and thin clients (Terminal Services, VMWare, or Thin Manager environments).
  • Participate in site commissioning, FAT, and SAT testing of automation systems.
• Operations & Support
  • Troubleshoot live HMI issues, alarms, and communications between PLCs, servers, and clients.
  • Perform system upgrades, backup management, and version control within Factory Talk View SE.
  • Maintain documentation: tag lists, screen inventories, alarm configurations, and user manuals.
  • Ensure HMI systems meet ISA-101
    , ISA-18.2, and corporate HMI design standards for usability and safety.
• Cross‑Functional Collaboration
  • Work closely with process engineers, I&E technicians, and safety teams to represent real‑time plant data accurately.
  • Participate in safety system integration and interlock visualization.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering
  , Controls/Automation Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent technical discipline.
• 3–7 years of experience designing and deploying HMI/SCADA systems in an industrial setting.
• Proven expertise with:
  • Factory Talk View SE (Site Edition)
  • Factory Talk Linx / RSLinx Enterprise
  • Rockwell Compact Logix or Control Logix PLCs
• Experience with Ethernet
  /IP networks, data servers, and CIP tag addressing.
• Strong understanding of industrial processes (e.g., power generation, chemical, nuclear, or thermal systems).
• Familiarity with Windows Server environments
  , Active Directory
  , and industrial network segmentation.

• Knowledge of Factory Talk View ME
  , Panel View Plus
  , and Thin Manager
  .
• Experience with OPC-UA/DA
  , SQL data logging
  , or historian systems (Factory Talk Historian, OSIsoft PI).
• Experience following ISA-106 (Procedural Automation for Continuous Process Operations).
• Understanding of safety systems integration (SIL‑rated loops, interlocks, trip displays).
• Strong scripting skills in VBA or structured text for custom HMI logic.
• Exposure to virtualized environments (VMware, Hyper‑V) and redundant SCADA servers
  .

• Excellent communication and documentation skills.
• Detail‑oriented with strong problem‑solving mindset.
• Ability to work independently and collaborate cross‑functionally with process, electrical, and safety teams.
• Comfortable working in high‑reliability industrial environments with strict configuration control.

• Factory Talk View SE project file (.SE)
• HMI/PLC tag mapping spreadsheets
• Alarm and event summary documentation
• User interface mockups and ISA-101 compliance checklists
• Version control and deployment procedures
