Instrumentation and Control Engineer

Hiring For USA Based Multinational Company

We are seeking a skilled Instrumentation and Control Engineer to join our engineering team. The ideal candidate will have expertise in designing, implementing, and maintaining instrumentation and control systems to ensure the efficient operation of automated processes across various industries such as manufacturing, petrochemical, energy, or utilities. The role involves designing control systems, troubleshooting instrumentation issues, and optimizing processes through automation technologies. You will play a crucial role in maintaining and enhancing the safety, reliability, and efficiency of our operations.

• Design, develop, and implement control systems for industrial processes using PLC, SCADA, DCS, or RTU systems.
• Develop control strategies and algorithms for process automation, ensuring systems meet operational requirements.
• Select and specify instrumentation (e.g., flow, pressure, temperature, level sensors) for process control systems.
• Create control system diagrams, including P&ID (Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams), Functional Design Specifications (FDS), and Control Logic Diagrams.
• Oversee the installation, calibration, and commissioning of instrumentation systems, ensuring they meet design specifications and industry standards.
• Perform routine and corrective maintenance on control systems, including troubleshooting and diagnostics of hardware and software issues.
• Ensure that all instruments are properly calibrated and perform periodic calibration checks to maintain system accuracy and reliability.
• Implement process automation solutions to enhance operational efficiency, reliability, and safety.
• Integrate new technologies and systems to improve process control, reduce downtime, and optimize system performance.
• Analyze existing systems and identify areas for automation improvements, energy savings, or process enhancements.
• Troubleshoot instrumentation and control system malfunctions, providing fast and effective solutions to minimize downtime.
• Conduct regular preventive maintenance on instruments and control systems to ensure they are operating at peak efficiency.
• Coordinate with operations teams to identify and resolve system failures or process deviations.
• Lead or support instrumentation and control-related projects, managing timelines, budgets, and resources effectively.
• Maintain and update documentation related to system designs, instrumentation specifications, test results, and calibration records.
• Provide detailed reports on system performance, project progress, and any technical issues to senior management.
• Ensure that all instrumentation and control systems comply with industry safety standards, regulations (e.g., OSHA, IEC, ISA), and environmental requirements.
• Work with safety engineers to conduct hazard analysis and risk assessments for control system designs (e.g., HAZOP, SIL).
• Ensure the integrity and security of control systems and instrumentation to protect against cyber threats (e.g., ICS-CERT security).
• Work closely with cross-functional teams, including mechanical, electrical, and process engineers, to ensure seamless integration of control systems with other operations.
• Provide training to operational staff on the use and maintenance of control systems and instrumentation.
• Mentor junior engineers and technicians, helping to develop their skills in instrumentation and control systems.
