About the Role The Industrial Controls & Field Implementation Specialist is a hands‑on technical role responsible for accelerating the deployment of industrial systems across ACM operations in Western Canada. This role bridges field instrumentation, controls, PLC‑related systems, vendor technologies, and internal IoTA solutions to convert operational needs into practical, scalable implementations. The position works closely with site operations, maintenance teams, vendors, and the Tech Lead – IoT Systems to support discovery, design, commissioning, troubleshooting, and standardization of industrial technologies. Success in this role means delivering reliable site implementations, improving visibility into operations, and building repeatable technical approaches that can scale across RMX, Aggregates, Asphalt, Pipe, and other ACM businesses.
What You'll Accomplish
Lead field implementation of instrumentation, controls, and industrial system solutions that improve operational visibility, reliability, and decision‑making across ACM sites.

Partner with the Tech Lead – IoT Systems to connect sensors, gateways, controls, and vendor platforms into IoTA and related internal applications.
Identify, scope, and execute opportunities to modernize legacy manual or vendor‑dependent processes using repeatable industrial technology solutions.
Work directly with site teams, maintenance personnel, and vendors to troubleshoot field issues, validate installations, and improve implementation quality.
Develop site‑ready standards, documentation, and deployment approaches for instrumentation, controls, telemetry, and industrial systems implementations.
Contribute practical operational knowledge across multiple businesses including RMX, Aggregates, Asphalt, Pipe, and other ACM operating environments.
Strengthen ACM’s internal capability to assess, challenge, and implement vendor solutions with less reliance on external integrators.
Support cross‑functional project execution by coordinating technical details, site readiness, vendor scope, and implementation follow‑through.
Demonstrate a commitment to communicating, improving and adhering to health, safety and environmental policies in all work environments and areas. Promote a culture of safety and exhibit these behaviors.
