Job Description
The Controls \& Instrumentation Engineer plays a key role in supporting the Engineering Lead and Product Engineering Manager in the delivery of Hyperscale Data Center Modules. This role is accountable for the electrical scope and control systems throughout all phases of the project lifecycle, including design, construction, manufacturing, testing, installation, and commissioning.
The engineer ensures that all electrical and instrumentation systems meet customer requirements and comply with industrial standards. Additionally, they provide critical support during the manufacturing stage and assist stakeholders in resolving site installation and commissioning challenges.
The Engineer will contribute to the achievement of organizational goals and initiatives as defined by the management team. Key responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
* Reviewing and approving drawings, documentation, and technical information to ensure compliance with industrial standards, enabling efficient production of Data Center Infrastructure Modules across manufacturing and supporting departments.
* Participating in and initiating design and development planning and review sessions to align with customer requirements and industry standards.
* Preparing Technical Requisitions (TRs) for electrical systems, instrumentation systems, and various components.
* Evaluating vendor quotations, conducting comprehensive technical bid analyses, and providing feedback to the procurement team regarding proposal compliance and gaps related to project specifications.
* Developing and finalizing engineering deliverables for controls and instrumentation, including instrument lists/indexes, data sheets, control system architecture diagrams, alarm schedules, and specifications for safety and control instruments.
* Reviewing P\&IDs, IOM procedures, start\-up procedures, and control/shutdown philosophies to ensure smooth Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and operational readiness of data centers.
* Ensuring major equipment purchases are accurately specified and integrated seamlessly into the overall system.
* Creating control narratives and philosophies.
* Troubleshooting control system and instrumentation issues during data center start\-up and commissioning.
* Performing ladder logic programming (as needed), sizing of control valves, relief valves, and flow elements, and training team members on these processes.
* Recommending optimal control systems, valves, level instruments, and flow instruments for specific applications.
* Participating in internal and client HAZOP sessions.
* Assisting with hookup detail development for I\&E contractors during instrumentation installation.
* Reviewing and approving subcontractor scopes for field instrumentation and electrical hookups, ensuring alignment with client specifications.
* Preparing bulk Material Take\-Offs (MTOs) and detailed Bills of Materials (BOMs).
* Applying innovative thinking to identify cost\-saving opportunities without compromising quality, schedule, or performance.
* Staying informed of emerging technologies and industry developments to recommend updates to programs and applications.
* Independently interpreting, organizing, and executing assignments with minimal supervision.
* Making autonomous decisions on technical challenges and representing the organization in meetings to resolve critical issues.
* Leveraging advanced technical expertise and experience to address complex or unique engineering challenges.
* Operating under broad objectives with administrative\-level supervision.
* Keeping current with advancements in electrical engineering and data center technologies and recommending improvements to enhance product reliability and efficiency.
* Representing the company in customer meetings, serving as the primary point of contact for client inquiries and concerns.
* Providing technical support during construction, responding to RFIs, and resolving field issues.
* Attending site visits, project meetings, and commissioning activities as required.
Education:
* Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering or Controls Engineering from a recognized university.
* Professional Engineering License (Strongly Preferred)
Experience:
* A minimum of 7 years’ experience in controls and instrument design and engineering, with a focus on data center infrastructure.
* Ability to produce drawings/sketches to illustrate design/ideas.
* General knowledge and direct experience with the construction, operation, and maintenance of data center or building electrical systems.
* Experience with high\-density data centers and hyperscale environments
* Understands the purpose of control systems for data center facility modules.
* Knowledge of industry standards, codes, and regulations, including but not limited to:
* + API – American Petroleum Institute
+ ASME – American Society of Mechanical Engineers
+ ANSI – American National Standards Institute
+ IEC – International Electr
