Job Summary

Litmus Edge SME - Systems Integration Engineer

The Role

We are building an internal capability to deploy and support the Litmus Edge platform across our global manufacturing sites. You will be the hands-on expert who gets sites connected, data flowing, and local teams enabled. You do not need prior Litmus experience. If you know OT/IT integration and industrial platforms, you will get up to speed quickly. What matters is that you have done this kind of work before on comparable technology.

What a typical day looks like

  • Deploy and configure Litmus Edge at manufacturing sites, connecting PLCs, SCADA, and historians to enterprise systems via standard industrial protocols.
  • Design Unified Namespace (UNS) structures aligned with ISA-95 to make plant-floor data usable at the enterprise level.
  • Integrate Litmus northbound with ERP/MES platforms (SAP, Oracle, Baan) and cloud targets (Azure, AWS, Snowflake).
  • Support sites post-deployment: troubleshoot integration issues, maintain configurations, and upskill local engineers.
  • Produce integration documentation, SOPs, and configuration guides that other teams can follow.

The experience we’re looking to add to our team

  • 4-7 years of hands-on experience in industrial automation, IT/OT integration, or IIoT platform deployment in a manufacturing environment.
  • Working knowledge of industrial protocols: OPC UA/DA, MQTT, Modbus, Profinet, or Ethernet/IP.
  • Experience integrating OT systems (PLCs, SCADA, DCS, historians) with IT or cloud layers. The specific platform matters less than the experience pattern.
  • Familiarity with ISA-95, Industry 4.0 architecture, and edge computing concepts.
  • Comfortable working directly at manufacturing sites and translating technical work into clear documentation.

Nice to Have

  • Direct experience with Litmus Edge, Ignition, Kepware, ThingWorx, AVEVA, or a comparable IIoT/edge platform.
  • Scripting skills in Python, Node-RED, or SQL for data transformation and pipeline tasks.
  • Basic understanding of OT cybersecurity principles, ISA/IEC 62443.
  • Exposure to cloud IoT services or time-series databases such as InfluxDB or OSIsoft PI.

What Good Looks Like

You have delivered at least one IIoT or edge integration project end-to-end, from scoping through go-live, in a real manufacturing environment. You know what breaks, why it breaks, and how to fix it. You can explain what you built to both a plant manager and a cloud architect.

What you’ll receive for the great work you provide

  • PTO
  • Health Insurance
