We are looking for Controls Engineers to join our St. Catharines Propulsion Plant team.

In this role, you will work within the Manufacturing Engineering (ME) organization, supporting any or all production areas of Engine Assembly and Component machining – Block, Head or Crank.

You will work in a highly collaborative environment to continuously improve production equipment and processes using advanced automation and controls technologies such as safety PLCs, industrial Ethernet networks, HMIs, robotics, CNCs, and vision systems. You will be responsible for conceiving and managing technical projects of varying scale and complexity, implementing equipment and process changes, and partnering with maintenance to troubleshoot issues. Increasingly, you will also leverage data and analytics to improve safety, quality, uptime, and cost.

Main Responsibilities

Provide day-to-day controls and automation support for production operations with a strong focus on:
- Personnel and equipment safety
- Process quality
- Equipment, uptime and throughput
Provide technical/engineering support to production and maintenance teams by:
- Troubleshooting equipment and process failures (controls, electrical, and related mechanical issues)

Lead and manage machinery/equipment controls throughout the lifecycle to ensure compliance with GM Safety and Controls standards, including:
- Support specification, design review, build, installation, commissioning, and PPAP of new equipment
- Functional safety validation (e.g., safety circuits, safety PLC logic, risk reduction measures)
- Integration with plant-level networks, data collection, and monitoring systems
Ensure new and existing equipment meets:
- GM global and local standards (Safety, Controls, Cybersecurity, Network)
- Ontario ESA/MOL/OHSA and other applicable codes and regulations
- Operational requirements for current and future product and process needs
Ensure accurate, current documentation is available and maintained for all equipment in assigned areas, including:
- Electrical and controls drawings and schematics
- Program and configuration backups
- Manuals, bills of material, and network documentation
- Collaboration in developing and maintaining Maintenance SOPs and standardized work
Identify and lead technical training and knowledge transfer opportunities:
- Mentor other Controls Engineers and Maintenance Teams on new technologies, tools, and standards
- Share best practices across areas and shifts
Maintain current knowledge in fields of expertise and emerging technologies:
- Stay current on equipment standards, legislative and regulatory changes, GM global requirements, and industry trends (e.g., EV propulsion, functional safety, industrial cybersecurity, data analytics, Industry 4.0/connected factory)
- Proactively update management on risks, opportunities, and recommended actions

Who We Are Looking For (Required Qualifications)

Strong controls systems technical aptitude obtained through:
- An Electrical, Computer, or Mechatronic Engineering degree, or
- Equivalent combination of education and relevant industrial experience

Strong work ethic and ownership mindset:
- Self-starter, highly responsible, and able to follow through on assignments
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced production environment with changing priorities
Solid understanding of manufacturing processes, preferably within the automotive or high-volume industrial sector.
Flexibility and adaptability:
- Able to move quickly between assignments and equipment areas as priorities change
Comfortable supporting off-shift and weekend activities as required by operations
Demonstrated knowledge of automation and control systems, including:
- PLC-based automation
- Industrial robotics
- Vision systems
- HMIs and industrial networks (e.g., Ethernet/IP, Profinet)
- CNCs and related motion control
Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications (Outlook, Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Project) for communication, reporting, and project management.
Demonstrated ability to achieve results within a team environment, including times with minimal direct supervision.
Demonstrated knowledge of mechanical concepts and how they interface with electrical/controls systems (e.g., pneumatics, hydraulics, motion control, tooling, guarding).
Knowledge of the requirements of:
- Ontario Ministry of Labour / Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA)
- Ontario Electrical Code

Our facility operates on a 3-shift basis. This position requires flexibility to work off shifts and weekends to support production, maintenance, and project activities.
