At DES, the work is deployed in facilities across North America, generating millions in documented annual savings. If you want your expertise to translate into real-world impact at that scale - this is where you belong.
Most technology companies measure impact in users and clicks. DES measures it in millions of dollars of documented annual savings at industrial facilities that depend on our technology to compete. When you work here, your contributions have consequences that are quantifiable, significant, and immediate.
We are a rapidly growing company with a two-decade track record, a portfolio of patented technology, and a client base that speaks about our work with unambiguous conviction. The professionals who join DES do so because they are ready to stop building things that don't matter and start building technology that redefines what industrial operations can achieve.
We do not have entry-level problems. We have consequential ones. And we need the kind of people who find that energizing rather than intimidating.
DES requires professionals who have done the work, not just studied it. Our most effective team members combine genuine technical depth with the operational instincts that only come from time spent in industrial environments where getting it wrong has real consequences.
You understand what happens inside a furnace at a level most people never reach - multi-fuel dynamics, excess air relationships, flame stability, emissions compliance, waste-heat recovery. You have optimized these systems in real facilities under real constraints, and you know the difference between a model and a process.
Deep expertise in turbine operation, performance optimization, and integration with complex steam and power systems, including cogeneration applications where the interaction between thermal and electrical output must be continuously optimized against live market conditions.
You build real-time systems that perform without excuses in demanding industrial environments. Experience with industrial communication protocols - OPC, Modbus, PROFINET and the discipline to write software whose failures have operational consequences. Optimization algorithms, constraint management, and performance reporting are your domain.
You have delivered complex technical projects in industrial environments, from concept through commissioning - while managing the relationship dynamics, schedule pressures, and technical surprises that are the reality of deploying sophisticated technology in operating facilities. You understand that delivery is not a milestone. It's a standard.
DCS and PLC configuration is your craft, not just the mechanics, but the art of translating engineering intent into control logic that operators trust, systems execute reliably, and processes respond to predictably. You have the process knowledge to make control design decisions that hold up in the field, not just in the simulation.
You have run these facilities or managed the people who do. You understand the operational, financial, and human dimensions of complex industrial environments, and you can translate between what technology can theoretically achieve and what operations will actually accept. That bridge is rarer than most technical skills and more valuable than most people recognize.
DES is a results organization. We measure performance by what our technology delivers to clients, not by hours worked or presentations given. If you thrive in environments where your contribution is unambiguously visible in operational and financial outcomes, you will fit here. If you prefer environments where effort can substitute for impact, you will not.
DES professionals are given meaningful responsibility from the beginning - because the work requires it and because capable people grow fastest when the stakes are real. We do not have learning tracks designed to delay impact. We have projects that require it immediately.
The credibility that DES has built with clients over two decades comes from a single source: we say what we will deliver, and then we deliver it. That discipline starts internally. We do not oversell capabilities, minimize risks, or obscure problems. We identify them, address them, and improve.
DES has assembled a team of professionals whose combined experience spans decades in the industries where advanced process control matters most. Working alongside them and being accountable to the standards they hold - is itself a significant professional development opportunity that most technical roles in the industry cannot provide.
Specific positions are posted here as they become available. In the meantime, if your background aligns with the disciplines above and you are drawn to the kind of work DES does, use our contact form to introduce yourself. The professionals who join DES often do so because they made themselves known before a formal opening existed.
