  • Collaborate with automation and controls engineers to integrate software with PLC systems and industrial hardware.
  • Manage full software lifecycle : requirements analysis, design, development, testing, deployment, documentation, and maintenance.
  • Create and maintain installers using InnoSetup and InstallAware.
  • Participate in QA / testing, customer support, and training activities.
  • Design and implement intuitive, high-quality user interfaces.
  • Document architecture, codebase, and development decisions for internal and external stakeholders.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve post-deployment issues, including user-reported concerns.

Qualifications

  • Minimum 7 years of experience in object-oriented, component-based software development for Windows.
  • Strong proficiency in Delphi (RAD Studio); C# / C++ experience considered if willing to transition to Delphi.
  • Embedded systems programming experience in C / C++ for industrial applications.
  • Familiarity with development environments such as MPLAB X, Atmel Studio, and IAR Embedded Workbench.
  • Experience with SQL / DBMS (Firebird preferred).
  • Proficiency with installer builders (InnoSetup, InstallAware).
  • Strong documentation and technical writing skills.
  • Excellent customer-facing communication skills, including remote and in-person support and training.
  • Ability to work independently and manage shifting priorities and deadlines.
  • Comfortable working with dispersed teams, including field service engineers and shop personnel.
  • Preferred Qualifications :

  • Experience with Allen-Bradley / Rockwell Automation platforms and PLC programming (ladder logic, structured text).
  • Familiarity with RS Logix 500, Studio 5000, and Connected Components Workbench.
  • Background in industrial automation and control system integration.
  • Knowledge of industrial communication layers (Ethernet, RS-485) and protocols (OPC DA / UA, Modbus TCP).
  • Electrical / electronics background, including use of multimeters and oscilloscopes.
  • Experience working in industrial / manufacturing environments.
  • Located in the Virginia Tidewater area (Newport News / Virginia Beach) .
  • What We Offer :

  • Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package (health / life insurance, 401K matching, paid vacation).
  • Flexible work schedule and remote work options.
