• IT/OT integration:

  governed interconnects between enterprise and controls; separation of duties, allow-listing, patch cadences suited to OT, and maintenance window planning.

• Security & compliance:

  align to

  IEC 62443, NIST CSF/800-82, ISO 27001

  , site safety, and corporate standards; manage audit findings to closure.

• Vendors & contractors:

  define SOWs, manage deliverables & site work windows, lead FAT/SAT, acceptance/turnover; hold partners to SLAs.

• Operational readiness:

  cutover/MOPs/rollback, spares, as-builts, user/admin runbooks, training, and clean handoff to operations.

• Lifecycle & standards:

  plan EOL/firmware/OS upgrades; contribute to the OT standards catalog, images, and reference BOMs.

• Financials & reporting:

  CapEx/OpEx estimates, change orders, actuals vs. plan; maintain RAID (risks, assumptions, issues, deps), milestone burn-down, and site readiness.

Qualifications

Must-Have

• 5–8+ years leading

  OT/industrial infrastructure

  projects (manufacturing, power, pulp & paper, chemicals, etc.).
• Demonstrated command of

  Purdue/OSI layers 0–7

  and live-plant realities (EHS, LOTO, hot work, shifts).
• Hands-on familiarity with industrial Ethernet; VLANs/QoS; routed cells; PTP/NTP; firewall zoning/segmentation; VPN/secure vendor access; jump hosts; AD/identity for OT; VMware/Hyper-V; backup/DR; and hardening of OT endpoints.
• Delivered projects using

  IEC 62443

  and

  NIST 800-82

  principles.
• Multi-site rollout and vendor/SI management experience.
• PM fundamentals: WBS, critical path, risk matrix, change control; tools (MS Project/Planner or similar).
• Stakeholder finesse across plant engineers, EHS, corporate IT/security, procurement.

Nice-to-Have

• PMP/PRINCE2; ITIL for service transition.
• Networking/security certs (e.g., CCNA/FCNSP) or

  ISA/IEC 62443

  certificates.
• Exposure to

  historian/OPC UA/DA

  , data diodes, serial-to-IP gateways, time-series pipelines (infra side only).
• Experience with CCTV/VMS/NVR/access-control backbones (infra perspective).
• Familiarity with validated/regulated change-managed environments.
• Scripting/automation (PowerShell/Python) for docs/config a plus.

Out of Scope

• MES/application build/run.
• PLC/DCS programming (coordinate infra prerequisites only).

Tools & Environment

MS Project/Planner, ServiceNow (Ideas Demand Project), SharePoint, Visio, Excel; strict change control/MOC and plant safety procedures; collaboration with IT Network/Security, OT Engineers, EHS, Procurement, and external SIs.
