ITAC serves Process & Industrial clients with integrated engineering and construction services for complex capital projects. We also offer specialty services including power systems services and products, custom machine fabrication, and fall protection services and equipment. Founded in 1988 on a dream and a $5K loan, ITAC is a true success story.

We specialize in power generation & utilities, chemicals, food & beverage, forest products, advanced manufacturing, and minerals & metals.

ITAC’s purpose is to make life better. For our employees, this means providing them with the resources and flexibility they need to have both a rewarding career and a fulfilling family life.

Perform root cause analysis on equipment and process failures and implement corrective actions.
Analyze operational and equipment performance data to improve reliability, productivity, and process efficiency.
Collaborate with operations, maintenance, contractors, vendors, and multidisciplinary engineering teams to implement automation and process improvements.
Support project planning, execution, commissioning, testing, startup activities, and field verification efforts.
Monitor project progress and ensure technical deliverables meet quality, safety, and operational requirements.
Participate in continuous improvement, reliability, and maintenance initiatives, including planned outages and shutdown activities.

Requirements

Minimum of 5-10 years of experience in industrial controls, automation, or electrical engineering within a manufacturing or process environment.
Hands-on experience programming, troubleshooting, and maintaining Rockwell Allen-Bradley PLC systems.
Experience developing and modifying PLC ladder logic and supporting industrial automation systems.
Working knowledge of HMI, SCADA, and industrial networking technologies.
Experience with AC/DC motors, variable frequency drives (VFDs), instrumentation, and process control systems.
Ability to read and interpret electrical drawings, schematics, control narratives, and industrial automation documentation.
Familiarity with industrial communication protocols including Ethernet/IP, Modbus, Profibus, or Profinet.
Strong troubleshooting, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications including Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Outlook.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills and the ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams.
