Job Description

MES Engineer

$120-150k base salary

Hybrid, 2 days in office

Malvern, PA

I'm currently supporting a leading systems integrator on a search for an MES Engineer to join their growing engineering team supporting projects across the Life Sciences, Food & Beverage, and Specialty Chemical industries.

This is a hands-on role focused on designing, implementing, and supporting MES/MOM solutions within complex manufacturing environments. You'll work at the intersection of MES, automation, controls, and plant-floor systems, helping customers connect manufacturing processes with real-time data and business applications.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a strong MES background and/or automation experience who enjoys solving complex manufacturing technology problems, working directly with customers, and delivering systems from initial requirements through implementation and ongoing support.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Design, develop, configure, and support MES/MOM solutions for manufacturing clients
  • Lead MES projects through requirements gathering, design, development, testing, commissioning, deployment, and ongoing support
  • Integrate MES with PLCs, SCADA, HMI, databases, ERP systems, and other plant-floor technologies
  • Troubleshoot complex MES, automation, SCADA, and system integration issues and develop reliable technical solutions
  • Develop manufacturing data flows, workflows, reporting, and applications to improve production visibility and operational efficiency
  • Partner closely with customers, controls/automation engineers, and project teams to deliver manufacturing technology solutions

Key Skills & Experience:
  • 4+ years of hands-on experience with MES, manufacturing systems, automation, controls, or related technologies
  • Experience with AVEVA/Wonderware MES, PAS-X, Ignition/Sepasoft, Syncade, or another comparable MES/MOM platform
  • Strong understanding of plant-floor automation and controls, with Rockwell/Allen-Bradley experience highly preferred
  • Proven experience integrating MES with PLCs, SCADA, databases, ERP, and other manufacturing systems
  • Strong troubleshooting, communication, and client-facing skills with the ability to work collaboratively across technical and operational teams

If you're looking to work on end-to-end MES and manufacturing automation projects across multiple industries, this is an excellent opportunity to work with leading MES/MOM, SCADA, PLC, and automation technologies while having a direct impact on customer projects.
