Building Automation Manager

Key Responsibilities

• Lead building automation, controls, and OT engineering resources supporting one or more sites, campuses, or regions. 

• - Manage the day-to-day execution of BMS, controls integration, OT network support, alarm management, and automation-related operational initiatives. 

• - Ensure building automation systems are designed, implemented, commissioned, and maintained in a way that supports safe, reliable, and efficient facility operations. 

• - Partner with design, construction, and commissioning teams to review controls architecture, integration requirements, points lists, sequences of operation, alarming, and handoff expectations for new builds and retrofits. 

• Oversee troubleshooting and escalation support for complex automation, controls, and OT system issues affecting facility operations. 

• Ensure documentation quality and configuration control across BMS graphics, network diagrams, control narratives, sequences, device inventories, and change records. 

• Support OT cybersecurity compliance by partnering with security and infrastructure teams on segmentation, patching coordination, device visibility, access control, and applicable standards. 

• Drive consistency in alarm philosophy, monitoring expectations, system performance reporting, and change management practices across supported sites. 

• Manage vendors, system integrators, and service providers to ensure quality delivery, technical compliance, and sustained supportability. 

• Coach and develop automation engineers and technical staff in troubleshooting rigor, documentation discipline, cybersecurity awareness, and operational support practices. 

• Contribute to automation roadmaps involving analytics, smarter alarming, remote support capabilities, and improved visibility into facility performance. 

Ideal Candidate Profile

• 5–8 years of experience in building automation, industrial automation, controls engineering, OT systems, or mission-critical facility automation; data center experience preferred, though adjacent experience in healthcare, pharma, semiconductor, utilities, manufacturing, or other high-availability environments is also relevant. 

• 1–3 years of experience leading engineers, integrators, or technical programs in a controls, automation, or OT environment. 

• Strong working knowledge of BMS, PLC, SCADA, HMI, and OT network fundamentals in multi-vendor environments. 

• Experience supporting commissioning, troubleshooting, operational handoff, and post-occupancy support of automation systems. 

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Automation, Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related field preferred; equivalent technical experience also valued. 

Skills and Competencies

• Strong people leadership with the ability to set priorities, drive execution, and develop technical talent. 

• Strong technical judgment across controls architecture, operational risk, alarm quality, and system maintainability. 

• Ability to align engineering, operations, IT, cybersecurity, and vendors around common standards and delivery expectations. 

• Structured problem solving and effective escalation management in time-sensitive environments. 

• Ability to communicate technical issues, risk, and program status clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. 

Preferred Skills / Certifications

• Experience with BMS, SCADA, PLC, HMI, OT switching, industrial firewalls, controls integration, and high-availability automation architectures. 

• Familiarity with platforms such as Rockwell, Siemens, Schneider Electric, Ignition, Niagara, Johnson Controls, or similar automation ecosystems. 

• Working knowledge of industrial and OT cybersecurity concepts, including segmentation, remote access controls, asset visibility, and standards such as IEC 62443 or NIST 800-82. 

• Experience with commissioning workflows, sequence validation, controls graphics review, trend analysis, and alarm rationalization. 

• Familiarity with data center infrastructure systems including mechanical cooling plants, electrical monitoring, EPMS, DCIM, and integrated controls visibility. 

• Relevant OEM or platform training in BMS, PLC, SCADA, or OT networking is a plus. 

• Certifications such as Schneider Electric EcoXpert, Niagara certification, Rockwell training/certification, Ignition credentials, Cisco industrial networking training, or cybersecurity training relevant to OT environments are a plus.
