Machine Learning / IoT Solution Architect

Job Summary:

• We are seeking an experienced ML / IoT Solution Architect to join a digital transformation team supporting a large-scale manufacturing modernization initiative within a specialty chemical company. The client is replacing its legacy Manufacturing Execution System (MES) and Process Historian platform with a new AVEVA-based MES and Historian solution across multiple manufacturing sites.
• The architect will focus on designing and implementing Machine Learning, Industrial IoT, and data architecture solutions that leverage time-series, historian, and batch process data to enable advanced analytics, operational insights, predictive capabilities, and Power BI reporting.

Responsibilities:

• Design and implement scalable ML and IoT architectures for industrial manufacturing environments.
• Integrate data from AVEVA Historian, MES, SCADA, PLCs, and other operational technology (OT) systems.

Develop solutions for ingestion, processing, and modeling of:

• Time-series process data
• Process historian data
• Batch manufacturing data
• Production and operational metrics
• Collaborate with MES, data engineering, and business intelligence teams to ensure seamless data flow into Power BI and analytics platforms.
• Define data architecture standards, governance, and best practices for industrial data systems.
• Build and optimize machine learning solutions focused on predictive maintenance, process optimization, yield improvement, and operational efficiency.
• Support migration activities from legacy MES/historian platforms to AVEVA-based solutions.
• Work closely with manufacturing stakeholders to translate business and operational requirements into technical solutions.
• Provide technical leadership and guidance to development and engineering teams.

Experience:

• 8+ years of experience in Industrial IoT, Machine Learning, Data Engineering, or Solution Architecture roles.
• Strong hands-on experience with ML/AI solution development and deployment.
• Experience architecting Industrial IoT platforms and manufacturing data ecosystems.

Deep understanding of:

• Time-series databases
• Process Historian systems
• Batch process data management
• Manufacturing analytics
• Experience integrating OT and IT systems within manufacturing environments.
• Strong knowledge of data pipelines, data modeling, and analytics architectures.
• Experience with Power BI data integration and reporting solutions.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.

Nice to Have:

• Experience with AVEVA MES, AVEVA Historian, PI System, or similar industrial platforms.
• Experience with cloud technologies such as Azure IoT, AWS IoT, or related analytics platforms.
• Knowledge of manufacturing standards and ISA-95 architecture.
• Experience with predictive analytics, digital twins, or industrial AI initiatives.
• Familiarity with OPC UA, MQTT, and industrial connectivity frameworks.
