Automation engineer with almost 10 years experience designing and programming SCADA control systems for the water and waste water industry. I take pride in seeing each project through from inception to final completion. My work focuses around municipal clients who require automated control systems to treat and transport their water and waste water. I deliver high quality design, automation engineering solutions and construction services in the form of the following:- PLC programming (Studio 5000, RSLogix 500).- HMI development (iFix & FactoryTalk).- SCADA implementation/integration.- SCADA network development/implementation.- Performing site investigations/identifying client needs.- Developing drawings & specifications suitable for public bid.- Construction cost estimating.- Shop drawing reviews.- Responding to RFI's.- Conducting pre-bid walkthroughs.More specifically, I'm responsible for developing the following drawings and specifications:- Division 40 (formerly Division 13) specifications.- Control system architecture drawings.- P&IDs.A few things about me: - I succeed in an environment with minimal supervision that puts an emphasis on personal accountability.- I have the drive to work independently but enjoy the various stages of a project where I get to work with a team of engineers.- I take pride in my ability to multi-task and manage numerous projects/deadlines at the same time.- I am extremely versatile and able to switch my focus from one project to another at any time.- I am intelligent, motivated, and quick to learn new things.- I have experience with RSLogix 500.- I can troubleshoot control systems and control system wiring, VFDs, motor starters, and PLC/HMI programming.- I have experience with Win911, Palo Alto firewalls and Encore cell modems.- I built industrial control panels for three years.

I was an instrumentation & controls engineer who provided design services to municipal and industrial clients across a variety of industries. More specifically, I designed SCADA systems for clients who needed an automated control system to treat their water and wastewater. I delivered high quality engineering solutions in the form of drawings and specifications suitable for public bid. After the design phase was complete, I provided construction phase services.The following list describes in more detail what my responsibilities included:- Developing specifications (front-end and technical)- Specifying instrumentation- Control panel design- Electrical design (480-volt and under)- Site investigation/identifying client needs- Developing I/O lists- Developing and interpreting P&IDs- Submittal reviews- Producing O&M manuals- Writing control narrative- Construction administration- bidding phase services- Cost estimating- AutoCAD- Client management- Control system troubleshooting

I worked in the integration department building control panels. I would take an empty enclosure and build it to specifications both mechanically and electrically. I also assisted in electrical testing of the enclosures.
