Build the Control Systems That Power Carbon Solutions
Location: Franklin, TN (On-Site)
Type: Full-Time
Seniority: Senior / Technical Contributor
Join Enexor BioEnergy
Enexor is a mission-driven climate tech startup outside Nashville, TN, turning organic and plastic waste into clean energy and high-purity CO₂. We build modular, field-deployable systems that redefine what's possible at the intersection of energy, emissions, and sustainability.
Why This Role Matters
We’re hiring a Senior Controls Engineer to lead the development and deployment of the control systems that drive our energy and carbon capture platforms. You’ll design PLC-based control architectures, integrate safety and sensor systems, and own real-world performance from wiring to field commissioning. Your work keeps our systems safe, smart, and mission-ready.
What You’ll Do
- Architect and implement industrial control systems for modular power and gas systems
- Program and debug PLCs and HMIs for process control
- Integrate instrumentation (temp, pressure, flow, gas sensors) into cohesive control loops
- Design and support panel builds, including schematics, wiring diagrams, and component selection
- Collaborate with process, electrical, and mechanical teams for system-level integration
- Develop test protocols, troubleshoot control logic, and support field deployment
- Ensure compliance with relevant standards
- Own documentation, safety interlocks, and startup/commissioning of field systems
What We’re Looking For
- B.S. or M.S. in Electrical, Controls, or Mechatronics Engineering
- 5–10+ years of experience in industrial controls or automation systems
- Strong PLC programming and industrial communication skills (CAN, Modbus, TCP/IP, etc.)
- Experience in building HMI interfaces.
- Proficiency in Structured Text.
- Proficiency in control panel design and low-voltage power distribution
- Hands-on experience commissioning controls in real-world systems
- Familiarity with thermal, pressure, or gas-handling process environments
Bonus Points For:
- Experience with containerized or field-deployable energy systems
- Knowledge of SCADA systems or remote monitoring integration
- Background in waste-to-energy, carbon capture, or emissions reduction tech
- Knowledge of C++ or Python.
- Knowledge of IoT technologies.
- Knowledge of embedded system programming in C.
- Knowledge of PCB design for embedded systems.
Why You’ll Love It Here
- Mission with urgency
- Flat org, fast decisions
- Equity upside in a growing climate tech startup
- Hands-on, real-world product work
Compensation & Benefits
- Competitive salary + equity opportunity
- 401(k) and QSEHRA health stipend
- Paid vacation and holidays
