PI Dashboard Automation Engineer

Pi Dashboard & Automation Engineer

We are seeking a technically skilled and process-oriented PI Dashboard & Automation Engineer to lead the development of operational dashboards for clean and dirty utilities. This role will begin by leveraging PI Historian data to build a PI Vision dashboard for clean utilities and expand into broader utility systems. The ideal candidate will bring experience in automation, data visualization, and industrial systems, and will help evaluate and implement the best long-term dashboarding solution—whether within PI Vision, ICIS, or a global PI infrastructure.

Key responsibilities include:

• Design and build dashboards in PI Vision using data from PI Historian, starting with clean utilities and expanding to dirty utilities.
• Facilitate and lead workshops to define dashboard requirements, KPIs, and user needs.
• Evaluate the suitability of PI Vision versus alternative platforms (e.g., ICIS, global PI) for long-term dashboarding strategy.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure data integrity, system compatibility, and compliance with GMP and non-GMP standards.
• Support non-GMP PI updates and automation tasks required for dashboard development.
• Document system architecture, data flows, and dashboard logic for future scalability and maintenance.

We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances.

Skills and requirements:

• Familiarity with ICIS software or similar industrial dashboarding tools is a plus.
• Strong background in automation systems, including PLCs, SCADA, and OPC interfaces.
• Experience working in GMP and non-GMP environments, particularly in pharmaceutical or manufacturing settings.
• Ability to lead technical workshops and translate business needs into technical solutions.
• Excellent communication and documentation skills.
• Experience with Aveva PI System (formerly OSIsoft PI).
• Knowledge of tag validation, PI UFL, and integration with lab or environmental data systems.
