We are currently looking for a process control engineer if anyone is looking or knows of someone who is. The position will be responsible for:

DCS (ABB 800xA)

QCS (Valmet, Procemex)

Virtual Environment experience (VMWare & ESxI)

OSISoft System (PI/Processbook)

Support production with troubleshooting process issues

 

Prefer EE, but we can train the right person. Quite honestly in this setup you have to be some EE and CS.

 

Who wants to work with me?!?!!

That’s pretty much what I’ve gotten for as long as it’s been posted. Either they use the interview to get more money from where they are at or they require a visa sponsorship and we don’t currently do that.

Sounds like you need to improve the pay and benefits.

Have you thought about onsite sugar babies and Best Buy coupons?

The pay is actually really good for the area. Benefits are pretty good. Maybe it’s me [emoji2369]

Where is it, geographically?

Southwest Arkansas / Northeast Texas

For someone with experience the position would pay 100k+

By EE and CS I assume you mean electrical engineer that’s got some Computer Science know how?   100k+ with experience.

 No he means electrical engineer and common slut.  You make extra on weekends 

Figured. Just always heard from my ME buddies that EE was considerably more difficult, and have read on here that the CS school is about impossible to get into.  Both those statements don’t jive with 100k with experience.

I’m not saying we want someone with dual degrees from Texas. I’m saying that we need someone who has an engineering degree that can speak the IT language and has a basic understanding. We work closely with both local IT resources and corporate IT, so being able to communicate with them makes life much simpler.

On the pay, we’re talking about East Texas not Houston, Austin, or Dallas. Do a little research on the average salary for the position and you will see the salary I quoted is above the national average. In some cases well above.

I’m certain you know your market, that’s just stunning to me.  That’s what we’re paying construction science guys 3 years out of school.   Posts like these are a nice reminder to quit bitching about the job as often.  Hope you find your guy/gal.
