Union Technologies is reindustrializing America’s defense manufacturing base with a first-of-its-kind Factories-as-a-Stockpile model, integrating advanced robotics, manufacturing, and software into sovereign factory systems at scale.
Requirements
- Python as a daily driver for automation, data munging, and quick services (CLI tools, REST/messaging glue).
- Linux + CLI proficiency (systemd, networking tools, filesystems, SSH, packaging, containers/Docker).
- hands-on with one or more— Ignition, OPC UA *, Modbus, EtherNet/IP, MQTT, or similar.
- VLANs, NAT, VPNs, DHCP/DNS, L2/L3 troubleshooting (pcap/arping/tcpdump)
- Ignition SCADA systems; Grafana/Prometheus/ELK; Timeseries DBs
- PLC familiarity (Allen-Bradley/Siemens)
- Experience deploying software in air-gapped or highly regulated environments.
Responsibilities
- take custom equipment from dock-to-production with our on-prem SCADA and MES software integrations
- plan, install, configure, harden, and validate software in air-gapped/OT-constrained environments; create and execute cutover and rollback plans.
- write custom Python scripts to glue systems, transform data, automate operators’ workflows, and back-fill vendor gaps.
- execute Factory/Site Acceptance Test (FAT/SAT) punch lists; attend tests as needed; turn findings into fixes fast.
- step past the boundary of controls when needed—pair with controls engineers to troubleshoot PLC/field I/O, networks, and timing.
- Drive the roadmap on high value logging/metrics/tracing
- Identify high touch deployment processes and drive towards automation so the the 2nd, 5th, and 10th deployments get easier.
Other
- Ownership under pressure *: you’ve owned the success of a mission critical operation.
- relocate to Dallas, TX
