Wastewater Treatment Plant

In this role, active support the day-to-day maintenance and improvement of the MSD WWT Plant SCADA and OT systems is emphasized and required. You’ll assist with configuring and troubleshooting SCADA software, working with PLCs and field equipment, and supporting both physical and virtual server environments. You’ll help monitor system performance for MSD’s nine wastewater treatment plants and other smaller facilities; participate in site visits and coordination for installations, testing, start-up, and commissioning; and contribute to tasks involving networking, system backups, and alarm configurations for the operation and maintenance of wastewater treatment assets. You’ll also learn how to work with virtualization platforms like VMware, while documenting your work and following established procedures to ensure system reliability, security, and uptime.

Some exposure to Windows environments, basic networking concepts, or tools like VMware is helpful, but not required. Most importantly, you should be curious, adaptable, detail-oriented, and comfortable working in both office and field settings and with front line wastewater operators and maintenance staff as part of a collaborative team that can also include engineers and system integrators. Although typical business hours are usually maintained, in times of immediate operations or maintenance needs, off hours or weekend work may be required.
