MES Solution Architect
Architect job in Orland Park, IL
If you have read my s before, this will be a refresher. For those of you who haven't read my s before, welcome to the party....I like to add a little humor, so you will see some comedy scattered in this .
This JD is a revision of a previous MES Solution Architect role I had been working on for a while. Modifications were made to reflect changes in the need for this role. There is a stronger focus on Manufacturing Systems experience in tandem with experience working shop floor integration work.
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Tom. I am VP & Partner with a firm named RSM Solutions Inc. I have been recruiting technical talent for over 23 years and been in the tech sector since the 1990's. Due to this, I am going to be far more focused on 'fit' than anything else...a fit for you and a fit for the client.
In addition, I am an actual live, breathing human...not a 'bot' creating a JD in 32 1/2 seconds. I realize that looking for work is about as fun as a root canal, so if I can make the process at least a little more clear and easier, I am glad to do so.
As with a bunch of the roles I work on, social fit is really important. Here are some of those key social fit characteristics:
These guys like to see longevity in the roles you held. If you have spent 1-2 years at each role you have held, we wont have a fit, unfortunately. They seek those kinds of individuals who have matured their skills - over time - in the roles that they have held.
This environment is one that truly wants you to share your knowledge. You have been in environments and have experience that others on this team won't have...so, they really want to hear from you. If you have a 'better way', share it.
Here is the Job Description
This role is permanent and being done onsite Monday through Friday onsite in Orland Park, Illinois. After about 3 months, this role can work in a hybrid manner with 2-3 days a week. You will be traveling, realistically 25-35%. That travel to customer sites can be included in that 'onsite' time.
I am only looking at candidates that are local to Chicagoland. If you are looking to relocate for this role, that is fine...but there are no relocation dollars available for thsi role.
I can only work with US Citizens or Green Card Holders for this role.
We are seeking what this firm is calling a 'MES Solution Architect'. Ideally, we are seeking candidates that have experience either with home grown MES's, or experience with MES's like GE Proficy, Rockwell Plex, FactorTalk, Siemens Opcenter, Oracle Cloud Manufacturing, Critical Manufacturing MES, AVEVA, Forcam, etc.
However, if your experience is rather light when it comes to MES's systems, but you do have experience with shop floor integration tools, lots of shop floor & manufacturing experience, a solid understanding of manufacturing fundamentals (CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, extrusions, castings, injection molding, etc), that could create a good fit. This role, however, requires strong systems integration and systems development experience with manufacturing systems.
Here are some of the things you will be responsible for:
In this role, you will be working with a small team of solution architects and working with that team to integrate this client's MES into their client's systems.
Most of the companies you will be working with are manufacturing firms with employees of right around 500 employees or less.
Conduct detailed workshops with customer subject matter experts to analyze and document manufacturing processes.
Define and document functional and technical solutions required to implement an MES in the customer's environment.
Lead MES configuration and implementation activities within clients' IT and manufacturing infrastructure. This will include training sessions, ongoing instruction and guidance and with users.
Here is what we are seeking:
At least 10 years of experience working with manufacturing firms with regards to shop floor integration and / or MES systems. Preference will be given to candidates with MES experience.
From an integration standpoint, if you have experience with integrating shop floor systems with ERP's, WMS's, and QMS's that would be spot on with regards to what we are seeking.
An absolute must is systems experience in shop floor and manufacturing integration (specifically discrete manufacturing vs process manufacturing).
Experience working with manufacturing workflows, BOMs, system setups, production planning, and trace & tracking.
