About the role
Position Overview
We are seeking a BMS/EPMS Development Engineer focused on building and supporting HMI/SCADA systems for mission-critical infrastructure (data centers, critical utilities, etc.).
This role is heavily centered on remote system development, HMI graphics engineering, and controls integration, with a primary focus on:
Niagara 4 (N4) HMI/GUI development
Honeywell SCADA/BMS system configuration and integration
Programming and integrating systems that monitor temperature, pressure, flow rate, humidity, level, and other environmental/process variables
Top Skills - Must Haves
Niagara N4
honeywell
Scada
Controls engineering
The ideal candidate is strong in software + controls, not just commissioning—someone who can architect, build, and support scalable visualization and control platforms remotely.
Key Responsibilities
HMI / Front-End Development
Design, develop, and standardize Niagara 4 (N4) HMI screens, dashboards, and navigation structures
Build operator-focused interfaces including:
Equipment views (AHUs, chillers, CRAC/CRAH, hydronic systems)
System dashboards (plant-level, building-level views)
Alarm views, trend visualizations, and diagnostic interfaces
Implement consistent HMI standards (naming conventions, tagging, graphics templates, UX flow)
SCADA / BMS System Development
Configure and support Honeywell SCADA/BMS platforms, including:
Alarm configuration and prioritization
Historical trending and data logging
System-level visualization and reporting
Integrate Niagara front-end with underlying control systems and supervisory data layers
Controls / PLC Programming & Integration
Modify, configure, and troubleshoot PLC/control logic supporting:
HVAC systems
Cooling infrastructure
Utility/process systems
Ensure accurate system representation of field instrumentation including:
Temperature sensors
Pressure transmitters
Flow meters
Humidity sensors
Control valves / VFDs
System Integration & Data Flow
Perform point mapping, tagging, and database structuring between field devices and SCADA/BMS platforms
Configure communication across protocols such as:
BACnet/IP, BACnet MS/TP
Modbus TCP/RTU
Ensure clean, reliable data flow from field devices → PLCs → SCADA/HMI
Testing, Validation & Remote Support
Execute and support:
System validation and functional testing
Trend analysis and alarm verification
Remote troubleshooting of system issues
Support commissioning teams remotely by validating graphics, data accuracy, and system responses
Participate in FAT/SAT support from a development/system standpoint (not field execution
Required Qualifications
3–7+ years of experience in BMS/SCADA/HMI development or controls engineering
Strong hands-on experience with:
Niagara 4 (N4) HMI/graphics development
Honeywell BMS / SCADA systems
Experience programming or modifying PLC/controls logic (Niagara or Honeywell, Rockwell, Siemens, or similar) Understanding of instrumentation and systems measuring:
Temperature, pressure, flow, humidity, level, etc.
Experience with building automation or mission-critical infrastructure systems
Working knowledge of communication protocols:
BACnet, Modbus, OPC
Preferred Qualifications
-
Experience supporting data center or mission-critical environments (high availability, redundancy systems)
-
Exposure to additional platforms such as Ignition SCADA or other EPMS systems
-
Experience developing scalable HMI templates/standards across multiple sites
-
Familiarity with networked controls environments and system architecture
