Purpose: Operational excellence is one of the four core strategic pillars of APM Terminals’ long‑term strategy: “This is our platform for current and new terminals, where all value streams are standard, scalable, and replicable from acquisition, to construction, integration and all the way down to running a terminal”. Implementing, optimizing and scaling Operations Technology will play a pivotal role in achieving our strategic goals, ranging from initiatives like implementing complex brownfield automation at fast pace to optimize manhours per move or efforts to optimize running‑hours per move by deploying asset digitization in our more conventional terminals. To be successful, our terminals need to be supported by a focused, aligned and agile global team that adds value by Subject Matter Expertise, standardization and agile decision making. As part of the Asset Digitization (AD) Solutions team within the Process Automation (Operations Technology) function, the Assets & Industrial Connectivity Engineer plays a key role in enabling the physical connection of assets to our digital platform. The engineer assesses each asset type and determines the most effective connectivity method, based on business needs and infrastructure constraints. If a suitable solution does not exist, the engineer collaborates with AD and PA Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to identify or develop one. This role is also responsible for creating comprehensive technical (hardware) documentation, from installation guides to testing templates, to ensure deployments are repeatable and high quality. Additionally, the engineer supports terminal standardization efforts, performs signal mapping, contributes to a consistent data strategy, and assists to the team across a wide range of activities.
Key stakeholders: Terminals, OEMs/suppliers, OT Tech, OT Process Automation, OT Optimisation, OT Process Design & Management, Operational Excellence, GLASS/Automation Support, Project Execution, Labour Excellence, Decarbonisation, FLOW, Lean, Asset Maintenance, OPS, HSSE and Finance.
Principal Accountabilities:
Enable data flow from asset to servers.
Define and document Asset Digitization technical requirements to establish connections between terminal assets and the Asset Digitization application.
