Re-posting this and trying to bolster it again. Trying to #GetFediHired as a controls engineer (or similar), since a health company fucked me up and I'm still trying to deal with that.

Predominately an electrical controls engineer. Automation software, CoDeSys, IEC 61131-3, some DNP3/ModBus comms work, general control schema and SCADA systems for different purposes. Mostly worked with Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories's stuff, done some work with Allen Bradley's platform as well, in addition to some communications with a Metrohm analyzer.

Did some project based work during my time at SEL, previous job was supporting a manufacturing facility. Thinking project-based work is more suited for me (mostly ADHD satisfaction go brrr and also it gives me an excuse to dive deep into various standards and specs for different environments) but that can be in the form of multiple projects within a company's operations or more contract-y work for external clients. Kinda done both, but I think I enjoy that "supporting others" more than supporting internal systems.

Currently in the #Portland (Oregon) metro, most accessible is anything along or close to a MAX line or is otherwise west of the Willamette. Knowing my kind of work hybrid is the best I'll get (both cause nature of this field in my experience plus some personal factors) but hey, if someone knows of a remote controls engineer position with not a fuck ton of travel I'll consider it.

Given that I'm still early on in my career, I'm open to pivoting to more design-focused roles. Little experience with protective relay work. Not an EIT though am willing to get one as soon as possible.
