Senior Engineer - Controls

Technical skills: Well versed in selection and use of high-performance control system hardware especially Siemens HMI (Human Machine Interface) platforms Comfort panels and Unified comfort panels. HMI development (e.g., graphics, recipe handling, alarm management, trending, historical data, etc.) from scratch as per the client standards: Hardware: Siemens Comfort panels and Unified comfort panels Software: TIA Portal programming v15.1 and preferably v17 Customization: HMI scripting using HTML5 programming Must have Hands on experience in R&D Department Knowledge of ISA-101 and ISA-18.2 HMI and Alarm standards and other industry standards applicable for HMI design Ability to understand Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) programs in ladder/function chart/ structured text/sequential function languages and interface with HMI programs accordingly Thorough knowledge in signal communications protocols (e.g., foundation fieldbus, Device Net, BACnet, Ethernet/IP, CAN, Profibus, Asi, etc.) Ability to develop machine automation test cases for Factory Acceptance and Site Acceptance Experience in installation and commissioning in-person at site and using remote tools Knowledge in selection of motors, motor controllers or drives, calculation of motor horsepower, torque, speed range, reduction ratios etc. Knowledge in selection of sensor technologies applicable to the desired type of measurement (e.g., flow, pressure, level, temperature, analytical, counters, position, motion, vision, etc.) and have good knowledge In sensor characteristics (e.g., range-ability, accuracy and precision, temperature effects, response times, reliability, repeatability, etc.) Knowledge in selecting other control elements like solenoid valves, On-off devices/relays, self-regulating devices, transducers (e.g., analog/digital [A/D], digital/analog [D/A], current/pneumatic [I/P] conversion, etc.) based on application Follow codes, standards, and regulations like American National Standards Institute (ANSI), International Society of Automation (ISA), National Electrical Code (NEC), National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and Underwriter Laboratory (UL) Tool Skills: Siemens HMI programming - TIA Portal v15.1 and HMTL5 Minimum and Mandatory Siemens HMI programming - TIA Portal v17 Preferred Siemens S7 PLC programming Added advantage MS Office applications (Outlook, Teams, Excel, Word, PowerPoint, etc.) Education and Experience: Bachelor's degree in electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) or Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE). 10+ years of experience in programming Siemens HMIs Comfort Panels and Unified Comfort Panels. Experience in scripting for HMI programming is an added advantage. Experience in printing, packaging, and converting machinery, OEM is preferrable. Key Result Areas: Configure automation hardware and software packages according to project design specification. Develop HMI programs from scratch as per client's machine automation requirements. Ensure the best possible performance, quality, and responsiveness of HMI programs developed. Follow software change management procedures and maintain version control. Manage projects as assigned and deliver to agreed schedule and scope. Communicate with project stakeholders the progress relative to plan. Support FAT/SAT and start-up of integrated control systems.
