• PLC/HMI Programming:
  Design, configure, and modify PLC (e.g., Allen-Bradley, Siemens) and Human-Machine Interface (HMI) applications to control batch or continuous processes.
• Instrument Specification:
  Select and size instruments and control valves, including transmitters, sensors, and actuators.
• Industrial Electrical Systems:
  Work with motor control centers (MCCs), VFDs (Variable Frequency Drives), switch gear, transformers, and electrical power distribution up to high voltage.
• Troubleshooting & Maintenance:
  Perform field troubleshooting of electrical controls, instrumentation, and networking issues.
• Project Management & Compliance:
  Ensure designs comply with NEC, NFPA 70E, OSHA, and IEEE standards, manage project budgets, and coordinate with contractors.
• Startup & Commissioning:
  Participate in field testing, loop checking, and commissioning of new equipment.

• Bachelor's degree (BS) in Engineering from four-year college or university; and at least three (3) years related experience and/or training; or equivalent combination of education and experience in specific I&C disciplines as applicable to power plants.

• Key words standalone: SPI, Smart plant.
• Comply with all safety policies, practices and procedures reporting unsafe activities to Management.
• Contribute to building a positive team spirit.
• Communicate effectively with subordinates and management at all levels.
• Protect confidential information by not communicating, disclosing to, or using for benefit of third parties.
• Maintain the highest degree of honesty and integrity at all times.
• Electrical Design & Analysis:
  Develop and review electrical design packages for low and medium-voltage infrastructure, including one-line diagrams, schematics, and MCC (Motor Control Center) layouts.
• Automation Programming:
  Configure and program PLC, HMI, and SCADA systems to automate machinery and monitor real-time production.
• Instrumentation Selection:
  Size and specify field instruments—such as pressure, flow, and temperature sensors—and ensure they meet specific process requirements.
• Safety Compliance:
  Oversee electrical safety compliance (e.g., NFPA 70E, NEC) and conduct hazard assessments like HAZOP to mitigate operational risks.
• Troubleshooting & Maintenance:
  Diagnose complex malfunctions in both hardware (motors, wiring) and software (control logic) to minimize plant downtime.
