• Review drawings and design work completed by junior designers for technical accuracy, quality, and compliance with applicable standards.
• Support project execution by monitoring schedules, identifying scope changes, and providing technical input throughout the design process.
• Read and interpret engineering drawings, P&IDs, electrical schematics, instrumentation documentation, and related design packages.
• Apply applicable electrical and instrumentation codes, standards, plant requirements, Process Safety Management (PSM), and Management of Change (MOC) requirements to design work.
• Provide technical direction and support to junior designers as needed.

Target Profile

• 8+ years of industrial electrical and instrumentation design, EPC, or closely related experience.
• High school diploma/GED plus an associate degree, technical degree, CADD certification, or equivalent relevant training and experience. Bachelor's degree is a plus.
• Required: NCCER Electrical Certification Plus and NCCER Instrumentation Certification Plus.
• Strong industrial experience with electrical distribution, controls, field instrumentation, electrical/instrumentation drawings, schematics, and plant equipment.
• Advanced AutoCAD proficiency required.
• Experience with CADWorx 3D and Navisworks preferred.
• Experience designing or documenting instrumentation and control systems, including digital, analog, and pneumatic instrumentation.
• Familiarity with instrument/control valves and positioners is preferred.
• Familiarity with SAP or other engineering/data management systems and Microsoft Office.
• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, P&IDs, schematics, and electrical/instrumentation design packages.
• Proven ability to work independently, prioritize multiple assignments, communicate effectively with plant personnel and project teams, and provide technical direction when needed.
