Skills
- 3+ years of experience in OT systems engineering or industrial control systems administration.
- Hands-on experience with multiple industry-standard controls software platforms and tools.
- Significant experience designing, deploying, supporting, and troubleshooting OT environments in high-reliability settings.
- Experience supporting real-time systems, industrial control networks, or OT environments in data centers, power generation, semiconductor, energy, or similar high-reliability industries.
- Direct experience with BMS, EPMS, SCADA, and PLC systems serving large cooling plants, medium-voltage distribution, and mission-critical facilities.
- Experience designing architectures that incorporate hyperconverged, rugged industrial edge, and distributed compute technologies.
- Working knowledge of industrial protocols (BACnet, Modbus, OPC UA, MQTT, Ethernet/IP, DNP3), controls networks, and OT cybersecurity best practices.
- Proficiency in scripting (Bash / PowerShell / Python) and automation frameworks (Puppet, Terraform, Ansible, etc.).
- Experience with configuration management, provisioning, infrastructure as code, and DevOps concepts/tools.
- Familiarity with Active Directory, multi-platform authentication, and identity environments in OT contexts.
- System administration experience managing Windows and Linux servers, rudimentary database administration, and storage/backup.
- Network administration experience and understanding of the OSI model, especially Layer 1/2/3 considerations as they apply to industrial and facility networks (segmentation, VRFs, MDFs/IDFs).
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to work with internal teams, vendors, and management in both formal and informal settings.
- Willingness to participate in an after-hours on-call rotation and work extended hours or weekends as necessary to support live campus operations.
- Willingness to travel (up to 20%) between Memphis, Southaven, and other sites as the campus expands.
- Ability to lift 30 lbs.
- Ability to work at heights and in plant / data hall environments.
- Ability to drive (active valid driver’s license).
- Ability to work onsite in the Memphis, TN / Southaven, MS area.
Responsibilities
- Design, deploy, and augment next-generation OT environments that support cooling plants, electrical distribution, liquid-cooling loops (CDUs / facility water), on-site generation, BESS, and data hall systems across the Memphis / Southaven campus and future sites.
- Install, configure, maintain, and support industry-standard controls software platforms (BMS, EPMS, SCADA, PLC) as well as internally developed HMIs.
- Integrate established and emergent IT technologies to simplify management, improve security, and create scalable, highly available plant and facility environments.
- Deploy and maintain development, test, and staging environments to enable controlled, systematic change introduction on live critical systems.
- Provide direct support during cluster bring-up, capacity expansions, commissioning, and production training campaigns.
- Perform systems/software upgrades and maintenance between critical operations (including evenings and weekends as needed).
- Proactively monitor services and respond rapidly to incidents to maintain high availability and performance of power, cooling, and environmental control.
- Leverage automation tools and contribute to infrastructure-as-code and broader DevOps initiatives with a focus on ICs / OT environments.
- Work with controls, mechanical, and electrical engineers to iterate on simulation and emulation environments to enhance test coverage and change control.
- Write and maintain standards, architectures, best practices, and documentation (system overviews, design drawings, operational procedures), with emphasis on highly reliable and secure industrial environments, especially at IT/OT and data-hall boundaries.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (IT, security, controls, facilities operations, construction, and power) as well as vendors and integrators to design robust OT architectures and resolve technical issues.
- Ensure OT systems are configured and maintained in compliance with industry and cybersecurity standards (e.g., Purdue Model, IEC 62443).
