What you’ll be doing:
-
Maintaining and supporting instrumentation, control systems, and cyber/OT assets across multiple operational sites
-
Working with PLCs, SCADA systems, industrial PCs, firewalls, and network infrastructure
-
Supporting the implementation of cyber security controls to protect critical systems
