Katie Friday is a sales engineer who took the scenic route into manufacturing. She started in social work, battled through an engineering pivot at WVU, worked her way from project engineering to sales, and now lives at the intersection of customers, controls, and culture. We talk about resilient learning, why great SOPs read like fifth grade science, the reality of safety projects, and how leadership sets the tone for teams. There is a rom-com opening scene, a baby blue Beetle, and a giant robot in Wilmington. Most of all, there is a clear picture of how supportive culture turns new hires into future leaders.Why this conversation mattersCulture is a team sport and leadership is the lever. Katie shows how cross-functional respect between engineering, maintenance, and operations speeds projects up, how good documentation creates confidence on the floor, and why automation does not erase jobs. It raises the skill ceiling and demands better training.Conversation highlightsMeeting story at IMTS and a friendship that started in an elevator.Katie's rom-com life pitch featuring a 2013 baby blue Beetle and a bee.Switching from social work to industrial engineering and learning resilience the hard way.From receptionist to project engineer to sales engineer and why talking to customers clicked.The coolest project sighting, a towering broadcast robot and the crews that build stages for NASCAR, ESPN, and even the Super Bowl.Safety projects move first and fast, and the scheduling whiplash that brings.SOPs that actually teach, pictures over jargon, and testing docs with non engineers.Women navigating a male heavy field, boundaries, and a shoutout to mentor Kimberly Pelke.Why new adopters of automation are the next wave and how AI will show up on the plant floor.Topics coveredCompany culture as daily behavior, not a poster on the wall.Leadership modeling communication and teamwork.Sales engineering as translator between customers and controls teams.Budget timing, stakeholders, and the real blockers to moving from design to execution.Operator training that matches the tech.Automation as job shifter and skill builder, not a job eraser.Women in STEM, representation that changes decisions, and early pipeline programs.Quotes“I do not mind being the dumbest in the room. It just means I am learning.”“Good culture feels like a team that actually communicates and still pulls toward the same goal.”“Automation does not eliminate people. It asks them to learn new skills.”“Great SOPs should read like fifth grade science. Pictures help people keep the line running.”GuestKatie Friday is a sales engineer working across pharma, food and beverage, rubber and tire, and other regulated environments.

In this episode of Manufacturing Hub, Vlad and Dave take a deep dive into one of the most critical yet often overlooked aspects of modern manufacturing: network and systems architecture. Too often manufacturers focus on SCADA, MES, and control layers without recognizing that the architecture beneath them is the foundation that determines whether a facility can scale, connect new equipment, and maintain reliability. Architecture touches everything from plant floor PLCs and HMIs to edge devices, managed switches, firewalls, historians, and enterprise-level systems.We begin the conversation by unpacking what “architecture” actually means in manufacturing environments. Is it the hardware, switches, and cables? Is it the way new machines are integrated into existing plants? Or is it the broader strategy of ensuring that data, safety, and scalability are protected? The answer, as both Vlad and Dave explain, is that it is all of these at once.Throughout the discussion, we explore real-world stories where poor architectural decisions led to unplanned downtime, cybersecurity risks, or expensive rework. Vlad shares an example of a palletizer brought online with unmanaged switches and insecure remote access hardware that nearly crippled production until it was properly segmented. Dave recalls his own field experiences, including unusual setups where integrators resorted to improvised remote troubleshooting, highlighting just how creative but fragile some solutions can be.The episode also looks at the evolution of remote access. From the early days of Ewon boxes to modern expectations of secure VPNs, jump boxes, and approved engineering workstations, we discuss what role remote connectivity should play in today's manufacturing environment. While these solutions can reduce travel time and speed up support, they can just as easily introduce vulnerabilities and trust issues if not carefully managed.From there we move into the technical tradeoffs of device level ring versus star topologies. Vlad explains why he often prefers device level ring to save costs and simplify troubleshooting, while Dave weighs in on the importance of pre-molded cables, managed switches, and long-term maintainability. We also analyze example architectures from Rockwell white papers, pointing out where diagrams align with field best practices and where they differ from what engineers often see in real facilities.Finally, we broaden the perspective by comparing greenfield and brownfield deployments. Greenfield projects allow prime contractors and consultants to design standards up front, but most facilities live in brownfield reality where years of technical debt, unmanaged switches, and ad hoc networks make improvements harder. We also touch on how architecture differs by industry, whether in food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, oil and gas, or distributed environments such as trains or pipelines.The conversation closes with predictions, career advice, and resource recommendations. Vlad stresses that CCNA is still one of the best starting points for engineers who want to understand industrial networking fundamentals, and Dave emphasizes the importance of asking the right questions and learning from experienced peers. Both agree that demand for data, combined with the rise of AI, will continue to stress legacy networks until companies recognize the need for robust, standards-driven architectures.If you work in automation, engineering, IT, or plant management, this episode will give you perspective on why network architecture is not just a technical afterthought but a strategic enabler of digital transformation.Timestamps 00:00 Introduction and community updates 02:30 Defining architecture in manufacturing 05:00 Why networks are the backbone of manufacturing systems 08:00 A real-world palletizer story and the risks of unmanaged switches 14:00 The rise and pitfalls of remote access devices 18:30 Field story of unconventional remote troubleshooting setups 23:00 Who is responsible for network design: end users, integrators, or OEMs 28:00 Analyzing Rockwell's reference architecture diagrams 36:00 Device level ring versus star topologies in practice 49:00 Brownfield versus greenfield considerations 56:00 Industry-specific architectures from food and beverage to oil and gas 01:04:00 The role of standards and corporate versus local decision making 01:08:30 Predictions, career advice, and recommended resourcesReferences Mentioned in this Episode Ignition Community Conference: https://icc.inductiveautomation.com/ Siemens SPS Atlanta Event: https://new.siemens.com/us/en/company/fairs-events/sps.html Rockwell Automation Architectures and Design White Papers: https://literature.rockwellautomation.com CISSP Official Study Guide: https://www.isc2.org/Certifications/CISSP Winning by Tim Grover: https://www.amazon.com/Winning-Unforgiving-Race-Greatness/dp/1982168862 Cisco CCNA Certification: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/ccna.htmlAbout the HostsVlad Romanov is an electrical engineer and consultant with over a decade of experience in manufacturing and industrial automation.

Our guests this week are Aaron Prather, Director of the Robotics & Autonomous Systems Program at ASTM International, and later in the show, Rajat Bhageria, CEO and founder of Chef Robotics, in a conversation with Gene Demaitre at The Robotics Summit. Join us on a fascinating journey through time as we explore the evolution and significance of iconic robots in the history of the robotics industry.

Juvien Galano of Dewaste Solutions and Pamela Mejia of PAMMÉ join the show for a heartfelt, funny, and no-holds-barred conversation on building businesses with real purpose. From growing up beside rivers filled with garbage and surviving private school on a tight budget, to turning plastic waste into fashion pieces that sell in Rockwell and building waste systems from the ground up—they share how their personal stories shaped their paths. With support from Villgro Philippines, they talk about winning grants, bouncing back from big setbacks, and why relationships matter. It's a story of grit, growth, and going back to your roots to create real change.Resources:LinkedIn (Juvien Galano): https://www.linkedin.com/in/juvien Website (Dewaste Solutions): https://www.dewaste.solutions LinkedIn (Pamela Mejia): https://www.linkedin.com/in/thepamelamejia Website (PAMMÉ): https://thepamme.com Links/Sponsors:Villgro Philippines: https://villgrophilippines.org/Paymongo: https://www.paymongo.com/GoTyme Bank: https://www.gotyme.com.ph/SeekCap: https://www.seekcap.ph/ Hosted on Acast.

In the latest installment of our periodic series on class we hear from Ralph Rockwell in Wolcott. Plus, officials urge caution while swimming after three recent drownings, Vermont employment levels haven't returned to pre-pandemic levels, a bridge in Franklin County will be out of commission for the next two months, and why this is a great year for strawberries.
In this Episode: Our Heroes discuss the newish film from Duncan Jones: Mute. This one is in the same universe as his other seminal Scifi classic Moon and even features a mini cameo from Mr. Rockwell himself! Mute is kinda weird but quite enjoyable. I mean it's Futuristic Kinpin with a mute Amish Skarsgård! What's not to love! Tune in...
