About Venkata Dasari

I’m an Automation & Controls Engineer with a Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering and a strong passion for building reliable, scalable control systems.My background spans industrial automation, Building Management Systems (BMS), and Electrical Power Monitoring Systems (EPMS), with hands-on experience designing, programming, commissioning, and troubleshooting systems in high-volume and mission-critical environments.I work across PLCs, HMIs, SCADA, HVAC controls, drives, motion systems, and industrial networks, with deep experience in Rockwell Automation platforms (PLC-5, SLC-500, CompactLogix, ControlLogix) and AVEVA / Wonderware SCADA technologies. Over the years, I’ve supported everything from PLC migrations and system modernization to full PLC–HMI–SCADA–BMS–EPMS architectures for facility and process control.What I enjoy most is solving complex technical problems — especially in live environments where reliability, uptime, and safety truly matter. Whether it’s integrating VFDs, diagnosing control issues, improving system visibility, or supporting commissioning activities, I like being close to the technology and its real-world impact.I’ve collaborated closely with OEMs, facilities teams, electrical & mechanical engineers, maintenance, and operations to drive standardization, improve performance, and reduce risk during upgrades and changes.Earlier in my career, I worked as a Teaching Assistant / Lab Engineer for Industrial Controls and Advanced PLC labs, which helped strengthen both my fundamentals and my ability to explain complex systems clearly.
