Litmus Edge SME - Systems Integration Engineer The Role

We are building an internal capability to deploy and support the Litmus Edge platform across our global manufacturing sites. You will be the hands-on expert who gets sites connected, data flowing, and local teams enabled. You do not need prior Litmus experience. If you know OT/IT integration and industrial platforms, you will get up to speed quickly. What matters is that you have done this kind of work before on comparable technology.

What a typical day looks like:

- Deploy and configure Litmus Edge at manufacturing sites, connecting PLCs, SCADA, and historians to enterprise systems via standard industrial protocols.

- Design Unified Namespace (UNS) structures aligned with ISA-95 to make plant-floor data usable at the enterprise level.

- Integrate Litmus northbound with ERP/MES platforms (SAP, Oracle, Baan) and cloud targets (Azure, AWS, Snowflake).

- Support sites post-deployment: troubleshoot integration issues, maintain configurations, and upskill local engineers.

- Produce integration documentation, SOPs, and configuration guides that other teams can follow.

The experience we’re looking to add to our team:

- 4-7 years of hands-on experience in industrial automation, IT/OT integration, or IIoT platform deployment in a manufacturing environment.

- Working knowledge of industrial protocols: OPC UA/DA, MQTT, Modbus, Profinet, or Ethernet/IP.





- Experience integrating OT systems (PLCs, SCADA, DCS, historians) with IT or cloud layers. The specific platform matters less than the experience pattern.

- Familiarity with ISA-95, Industry 4.0 architecture, and edge computing concepts.

- Comfortable working directly at manufacturing sites and translating technical work into clear documentation.

Nice to Have

- Direct experience with Litmus Edge, Ignition, Kepware, ThingWorx, AVEVA, or a comparable IIoT/edge platform.

- Scripting skills in Python, Node-RED, or SQL for data transformation and pipeline tasks.

- Basic understanding of OT cybersecurity principles, ISA/IEC 62443.

- Exposure to cloud IoT services or time-series databases such as InfluxDB or OSIsoft PI.

What Good Looks Like

You have delivered at least one IIoT or edge integration project end-to-end, from scoping through go-live, in a real manufacturing workplace. You know what breaks, why it breaks, and how to fix it. You can explain what you built to both a plant manager and a cloud architect.

What you’ll receive for the great work you provide:

- PTO

- Health Insurance
