Design, develop, and maintain Grafana dashboards for visualization of IIoT data from AWS SiteWise.

Implement standardized and reusable dashboard templates to enable consistent visualization across sites and regions.

Configure role-based access control and secure data access.

Monitor and troubleshoot issues related to data latency.

Multi-Region AWS Infrastructure

Design, implement, and manage multi-region AWS infrastructure to support high availability, scalability, and disaster recovery for global IIoT platforms.

Architect and maintain cross-region deployment strategies.

Implement data replication and synchronization mechanisms across regions.

Monitor and optimize cross-region performance, latency, and cost.

Ensure security, compliance, and governance controls are consistently applied.

Ignition Platform Configuration & Data Contextualization (Optional)

Configure and manage Ignition (Inductive Automation) gateways and projects, including tag structures, UDTs (User Defined Types), and device connections.

Design and implement standardized data models and tag hierarchies, enabling scalable and reusable configurations across sites.

Perform data contextualization, mapping raw signals from PLC/SCADA systems into meaningful asset models and business-relevant data structures.

Troubleshoot issues related to tag communication, data inconsistencies, gateway performance, and integration failures.
