ONEOK operates one of North America's largest midstream networks—gathering, processing, and transporting natural gas, NGLs, crude, and refined products across approximately 60,000 miles of pipeline. The tech stack is almost entirely industrial operations (Foxboro DCS, Rockwell PLCs, AVEVA, DeltaV, SCADA, Maximo) with minimal adoption velocity, reflecting a capital-intensive business where engineering and operations hiring (129 roles combined) far outpaces sales (2 roles), and active projects center on safety compliance, system expansion, and equipment reliability rather than digital transformation.
Notable leadership hires: Lead Operator, Account Director
ONEOK is a publicly traded midstream energy company headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma, with 5,001–10,000 employees. The business moves natural gas, natural gas liquids, refined products, and crude oil through a diversified infrastructure network spanning gathering, processing, fractionation, transportation, storage, and marine export. Core operational focus is on pipeline system reliability, safety compliance, measurement accuracy, and capacity optimization. Current hiring is concentrated in engineering and operations roles across the United States and Zimbabwe, with active project work on system expansion, equipment overhauls, safety program implementation, and a crude oil well connect initiative.
ONEOK's operational stack centers on industrial control systems: Foxboro DCS, Rockwell Automation PLCs, AVEVA, DeltaV, SCADA, and Maximo for asset management. Reporting and finance use Oracle Hyperion Planning and Cognos.
