Top required skills/experience:
1-5 years manufacturing experience with:
- Strong understanding and practical application of classical control theory, including PID control loop tuning and analysis
- Familiarity with advanced process controls technologies such as MPC, non-linear approaches, cascade control, and feed-forward control
- Programming experience in MATLAB/Simulink
- Controls-oriented modeling (system identification)
- Bachelors is a hard requirement. New grads with relatable internship experience will be considered.
PURPOSE
- Cornings MT&E division is seeking a Process Controls Engineer to support the development of new manufacturing processes and the optimization/improvement of existing processes to provide competitive advantage.
- This is an opportunity to have significant impact through increased process efficiency and/or plant profitability to the wide variety of processes and numerous plants in Cornings different businesses.
-The position will be focused on the design, development, and implementation of classical and advanced process controls solutions within dynamic manufacturing environments through Cornings global businesses.
- The ideal candidate will have a strong technical curiosity and a desire for project leadership opportunities.
- There will be a large emphasis on the application of controls theory, as well as strong interpersonal skills to function effectively within cross-functional and diverse project teams.
JOB RESPONSIBILITIES
Specific job responsibilities will depend upon the active project and may include but are not limited to:
- Working individually or alongside experienced professionals in multi-disciplinary teams to design, develop, and implement process controls solutions for manufacturing processes
- Working with subject matter experts to develop in-depth process knowledge and fundamental understanding of manufacturing processes to identify new promising process control opportunities
- Evaluating existing process control strategies and then proposing and developing enhancements/improvements to increase process efficiency and plant profitability (e.g., via increased yields or throughput); this could mean enhancing PID-based control strategies with cascade control, feedforward, gain-scheduling, optimized loop pairing, etc. or applying advanced, model-based control algorithms, such as model predictive control (MPC), internal model control (IMC), etc.
- Developing and maintaining MPC-based process control solutions throughout the organization
- Working closely with manufacturing to define appropriate hardware and software platforms for implementing process control solutions
- Facilitating the transfer of new process control technologies into manufacturing and providing training to manufacturing and engineering personnel
- Generating intellectual property through technical reports, invention disclosures, and patent applications
TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS:
