About the role

About MSCP MSCP delivers advanced Heat Management and industrial control solutions across complex, high consequence industrial environments. Founded in 2011 to support the Energy sector, MSCP has evolved into a multidisciplinary organization operating across energy, chemical processing, manufacturing, cement production, and steel facilities where reliability, predictability, and system stability are critical.

Our work integrates engineering, manufacturing, and field execution into a coordinated system designed to reduce variability, protect constraints, and enable consistent flow from concept through installation and operation.

How We Work

MSCP operates using a systemic model rather than a traditional hierarchical structure. Our teams are aligned around flow, constraint protection, and synchronization across estimating, engineering, manufacturing, and operations.

This Approach Creates An Environment Where

  • Engineering decisions are made with full awareness of downstream impacts
  • Reliability and repeatability are prioritized over local optimization
  • Collaboration replaces handoffs and rework
  • Continuous learning is embedded into daily work

Engineers at MSCP are not isolated contributors. They are active participants in the delivery system and play a direct role in protecting throughput and improving overall performance.

The Role

This position is suited to an engineer who enjoys working at the intersection of embedded systems, hardware integration, manufacturing, and operations. You will contribute to both client driven projects and internally led product development, with a strong emphasis on reliability, reduction of variation, and alignment with MSCP’s Theory of Constraints methodology.

You will work closely with hardware designers, manufacturing, operations, and business development to ensure technical solutions are robust, scalable, and aligned with system level objectives.

Core Responsibilities

  • Develop embedded software for microcontroller-based systems with emphasis on flow reliability, repeatability, and reduction of variation
  • Ensure all technical decisions support MSCP’s Theory of Constraints methodology and protect the system’s constraining resource
  • Collaborate with hardware designers to synchronize interfaces, assumptions, and design intent
  • Participate in structured learning and feedback cycles to identify variability early and reduce rework
  • Participate in project scoping, customer meetings, and technical discovery
  • Translate customer and project requirements into clear, prioritized engineering tasks that align with project constraints
  • Provide technical expertise to support business development activities, including proposals, feasibility reviews, demonstrations, and capability discussions
  • Collaborate with the business development team to validate technical fit, support opportunity evaluation, and strengthen MSCP’s technical value propositions
  • Participate in internal R&D initiatives that improve product reliability, manufacturability, throughput, and system stability
  • Conduct testing, troubleshooting, and refinement activities in development and operational environments
  • Apply root-cause analysis to implement solutions that reduce future variability and increase stability
  • Contribute to documentation including firmware standards, coding practices, integration guides, and technical knowledge repositories
  • Capture lessons learned to support organizational learning
  • Participate actively in MSCP’s Theory of Constraints methodology including buffer management, constraint identification, and synchronization across estimating, engineering, manufacturing, and operations
  • Support MSCP’s systemic network-of-projects approach by ensuring engineering or operational outputs enable predictable flow and reduce system-wide variation

Who Will Succeed in This Role

You Will Succeed At MSCP If You

  • Think in terms of systems rather than isolated components
  • Are comfortable working across disciplines and functions
  • Value reliability, clarity, and repeatability over unnecessary complexity
  • Take ownership of outcomes, not just deliverables
  • Are curious, analytical, and open to structured feedback
  • Are motivated by improving flow and reducing variation across a network of projects
