Building Controls Technician III - Wonderware/Aveva

Job Description

Job Description

Mantis Innovation provides managed facility services and turnkey program management with technology-enabled solutions that target the entire building footprint. We look at the entire facility—inside and out—and can impact 70% of what a building operator allocates critical budget dollars toward, including: Strategic electricity and natural gas procurement, renewable energy, and demand response; climate impact reduction and reporting, net zero strategies, and sustainability planning; roofing, solar, HVAC assessment management, pavement, building envelope, data center optimization, and EV charging; lighting/LED retrofits, HVAC/mechanical systems, and BMS/BAS improvements and implementation.

This is a senior-level Controls Technician role focused on delivering mission-critical BMS service projects across Central and Northern New Jersey. Unlike Tech II, Tech III candidates must operate independently at a high level: leading troubleshooting, programming, commissioning, and integration tasks in live data center environments. This role directly supports a key client with high uptime and compliance requirements.

Required Skills

• 5-12+ years hands-on experience in BMS, SCADA, PLCs, or HVAC controls (senior-level only).
• Independent troubleshooting + commissioning in live data centers (client-facing).
• Strong proficiency in Wonderware/Aveva
• Strong HVAC grounding (control sequences, integration)
• Ability to interpret and apply mechanical drawings and control schematics
• Willingness to be at the client site 5-days a week; M-F

PLEASE READ - You will not be considered for this role if:

• You only have InTouch HMI or MES experience (without System Platform/Historian/Dev Studio).
• You have no SCADA/PLC exposure.
• You are unwilling to travel daily across NJ.
• You have weak communication skills or lack of independent project ownership.

Note: Employees are held accountable for all duties of this job. This job description is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all duties, responsibilities, or qualifications associated with the position.
