Technical Lead, Facilities Software Automation

Lead the architecture and implementation of facilities software automation for physical plant control, from telemetry to actuation with built-in safety. Own closed-loop control, simulation, rollout across sites, and set engineering standards while continuing to write critical code. Requires prior leadership of physical systems automation teams.

About the role

Role Scope

  • Lead facilities software automation: the systems that let software observe, decide, and act on physical plant.
  • Own the architecture from telemetry through decision to actuation, with safety and authorization designed in.
  • Set the engineering standards for a team shipping against live infrastructure.
  • Carry the hardest problems: closed-loop control paths, simulation, and rollout strategy across the fleet.

Requirements

  • Led teams building software that controls or automates physical systems.
  • Designed act-on-plant paths with interlocks, authorization, and audit.
  • Taken automation from one site to many with a real rollout model.
  • Architecture decisions balance speed with the blast radius of being wrong.
  • Still write the critical code.

Nice-to-Haves

  • Controls background (PLC, BMS).
  • Digital twin and simulation.
  • Energy systems.
  • Safety-critical software practices.
