Job Summary
As a Senior APC Engineer, you will carry this legacy forward by applying advanced process control, analytics, and AI/ML technologies to cement and mining operations worldwide. At Fuller, APC engineering is not just about control algorithms - it is about understanding the process, earning customer trust, and delivering performance that lasts.
This is a hands-on technical role with responsibility across the full APC project lifecycle - from process analysis and model development to commissioning, optimisation, and long-term performance support.
Your Responsibilities
- Perform process and data analysis using historical and real-time data from cement and minerals plants to identify optimisation opportunities.
- Design, develop, test, and deploy predictive models and soft sensors using linear and non-linear AI/ML algorithms.
- Implement, validate, and maintain real-time APC applications using MPC, AI/ML, fuzzy logic, and PID control strategies.
- Estimate and quantify process improvement benefits using data analytics, supporting performance guarantees and technical proposals.
- Adapt, tune, and retrain models and controllers to ensure sustained performance and operational stability.
- Define and implement process control strategies, including configuration and commissioning of APC solutions.
- Fine-tune MPC, fuzzy, and PID controllers to achieve guaranteed performance targets related to productivity, energy efficiency, and stability.
- Support system integration activities, including hardware selection, software installation, and connectivity with PLCs, DCS, and historians.
- Provide training and technical mentoring to APC engineers on data analytics and AI/ML applications within the ECS/ProcessExpert platform.
- Evaluate emerging developments in advanced analytics and non-linear modelling to continuously improve APC applications.
- Contribute across the broader APC lifecycle, including sales support, product development, feature testing, and service support as required.
What You Bring
- Strong hands-on experience in Advanced Process Control, Data Analytics, Machine Learning, and AI applied to industrial processes.
- Proven experience in data mining, statistical modelling, model deployment, and real-time implementation.
- Background in process manufacturing industries; cement and minerals process knowledge is a strong advantage.
- Solid understanding of process optimisation, control strategy development, and benefit analysis.
- Experience with industrial data connectivity and historians, including SQL, MQTT, PLCs, DCS, and modern data platforms.
- Proficiency with AI/ML and data analytics tools commonly used in process industries, including Python, Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-Learn, TensorFlow, Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Databricks.
- Willingness to travel (10-25%) within India and internationally for commissioning, pilot testing, customer engagement, and training.
