Technology Group is looking for a Controls & Instrumentation Engineer to support projects ranging from small studies to multi-million dollar turn-key supply. A successful candidate must be team-oriented, organized, able to communicate to all levels of the organization, and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
Your work will be unique and challenging while supporting several projects in a dynamic and exciting environment. This position will provide you with an unparalleled opportunity to work with a team of motivated engineering and business professionals who work to ensure client satisfaction and deliver projects within scope, budget, and schedule.
Under the supervision of senior engineering staff, responsibilities include\:
Developing hardware assembly and wiring diagrams for control and data acquisition systems. Implementing control system software designs that include control of temperature, pressure, humidity, flow, force, motion of mechanisms, system safety, human safety, and other advanced process and electromechanical systems. Developing control system software in PLC ladder logic, function block, HMI programming, etc. Implementing interfaces to facility equipment using hardwired interfaces and industrial networks. Applying closed loop controls methods, both classical and modern, to control continuously variable systems. Supporting hardware assembly and fabrication. Performing facility startup, checkout, and commissioning, both domestically and abroad. Communicating with clients and management regarding project status. Coordinating with other engineering disciplines and departments to ensure success. *We are a performance unit of Critical Mission Solutions (CMS) Line of Business.
