Description

CLX Engineering seeks an experienced Integration Engineer II in New Orleans with a strong working proficiency in airport baggage handling systems. This is a unique skill set encompassing an understanding of mechanical, electrical, logistical, and software interactions implemented with sound, engineering principles. Our Integration Engineer II role demands someone who not only has a strong problem-solving skill set but has excellent customer service skills and can remain calm and productive in challenging situations. You will work collaboratively with our airport customers, Project Management, and Controls Engineering. Excellent documentation and communication skills are an absolute must.

Successful candidates must possess the capability to troubleshoot and modify programmable logic controls (PLCs), particularly Allen Bradley Studio 5000, alongside demonstrating substantial hands-on experience in control panel design. They should exhibit a commitment to project completion. The CLX Integration Engineer role in New Orleans entails working with minimal supervision while receiving guidance from senior engineers. Candidates should have confidence in their technical abilities and the capacity to adapt swiftly. Ideal candidates will also boast significant customer relations experience, serving as the primary point of contact for airport customers regarding technical requirements. They should excel in effective collaboration with Project Management, engineering leadership, and other internal stakeholders, knowing when to involve additional team members for various issues.

This is not an entry-level position. Candidates must have a minimum of 5 years of solid experience working in automation, especially with PLC programming in Allen Bradley. Candidates who interview should expect to demonstrate their capabilities.

Our future employee will reside in New Orleans, LA for approximately 2-3 years with occasional travel to our Sanford, FL office or other project sites, as needed.

• Mentor junior team members and coordinate with project teams.
• Occasional travel to the CLX headquarters in Sanford, FL and travel as needed for other project requirements.
• Sometimes, this role entails physical demands, such as ascending slip or ship ladders, navigating obstacles, operating in low light, enduring varying temperatures, and occasionally maneuvering through confined spaces to perform maintenance tasks.

• Solid engineering foundation/knowledge, time management, critical thinking, decision making, monitoring, communication (written/verbal/phone), problem sensitivity, attention to detail, conscientiousness, and a strong tenacity to see problems through to full completion.
• Five (5+) years of solid experience working in automation, especially with PLC and coding with Allen-Bradley.
• Experience managing a team of controls engineers and/or vendors as a team lead or supervisor.
• Physical Abilities: Remain stationary for up to 50% of a shift/work hours and while on job sites, must be able to walk airports and plants and remain standing for most of the shift. Must be able to navigate obstacles within a manufacturing environment.

• BSEE, E.T. or relevant technical degree
• AutoCAD experience, especially electrical.
