Control Engineer

We are looking to hire a Control Engineer for one of our client located in Orlando, Florida. This position is responsible for electrical/controls engineering on large-scale projects. Project requirements involve control system design from scratch (hardware/software/network), electrical panel design and power calculations, risk assessment, component selection and configuration, control system programming, and control system installation/commissioning. The pay is between $110,000 - $130,000 but could go higher depending on experience.

Required Skills: Controls Engineer, Control System Design, DCS/PLC Programming, DCS/PLC, Control Panel Design, System Design Calculations/Analysis, Short Circuit Protection, Harmonics, Noise Reduction/Cancellation, Power Consumption, Load Flow, Protective Relay/Circuit Design, Ground Fault Monitoring, Safety System Implementation (SIL rating), Hazard Analysis, Mitigation, Wiring, Network Layout, Panel Layouts, Ethernet-based control systems, AutoCAD, DeltaV, Experion, 800xA, Allen Bradley, Modicon, Siemens, Microsoft Windows and Office.

Job Responsibilities:

• · Responsible for system design from blank sheet of paper to create concept of electrical/control components based on project requirements.
• · Experience doing design via drafting software (AutoCAD preferred)
• · Provide input, and system modification as needed, for system integration with other project disciplines
• · Able to interface with facility design to optimize panel location minimizing voltage drop and designing a more efficient system hardware layout
• · Manage vendor scope to verify safety, functionality, and all contract requirements are satisfied
• · Ensures design complies with any local or government agency design/implementation codes in addition to client codes/standards
• · Project technical risk assessment document generation and mitigation implementation
• · Develops documents of system configuration and design. Documents include Description of operation, Detailed control system design description, panel assembly drawings and schematics, termination drawings, network layout, system implementation/acceptance test plans, system routine maintenance/job plans
• · Able to perform the following system design calculations/analysis: Short circuit protection, harmonics, noise reduction/cancellation, power consumption, load flow, short circuit protection, protective relay/circuit design, ground fault monitoring, safety system implementation (SIL/PL rating knowledge is preferred)

Must Haves:

• Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering.
• Ethernet based IO experience
• Stable work history
• 5 years of control system design experience.
• Must be organized, technically competent, have effective oral and written communications, experienced in working in a multi-disciplined environment and interfacing with engineers, designers, and drafters.
• System design from blank sheet of paper to create concept of electrical/control components based on project requirements.
• Experience working with hardware/software from one of the major industrial manufacturers (i.e. Allen-Bradly, Siemens, etc.).
• Experience with ethernet-based distributed remote I/O systems.
• Experience doing design via drafting software (AutoCAD preferred)
• Design and analysis for safety-critical parts within a control system
• Able to perform the following system design calculations/analysis: Short circuit protection, harmonics, noise reduction/cancellation, power consumption, load flow, short circuit protection, protective relay/circuit design, ground fault monitoring, safety system implementation (SIL/PL rating knowledge is preferred)
