Role you're checking

OT Security Engineer

Technology

OT Security Engineers protect Operational Technology (OT) environments — the PLCs, DCS, SCADA systems, and HMIs that physically run power grids, oil refineries, steel plants, pharmaceutical manufacturing lines, and water treatment facilities. Unlike IT security (cloud, servers, SaaS), OT security demands knowledge of industrial protocols (Modbus, DNP3, IEC 61850, EtherNet/IP), air-gapped or semi-connected network architectures, and safety-integrity concerns where a misconfigured firewall rule can trip a turbine or contaminate a batch. In India the role is growing inside power utilities (NTPC, Adani Power, Tata Power), oil & gas majors (ONGC, Reliance, HPCL), and OT-security consultancies (Claroty, Dragos, Honeywell Forge, Schneider Electric EcoStruxure security practices) that serve these sectors. Entry demands either an automation/instrumentation background (B.E. EE/Instrumentation + security certs) or an IT-security background (B.Tech CS + deep network security + OT-protocol upskilling); the dual-domain rarity is why compensation clears cybersecurity-analyst bands within 2-3 years.
