AUSTIN - Junior Instrumentation and Controls Engineer at Bgeinccampus · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

Assist with instrumentation and controls design and production of deliverables for energy services projects, including field instrumentation, control panels, PLC and DCS systems, SCADA, telemetry, metering, and site automation.
Prepare, under the direction of a senior engineer, instrumentation and controls design documents, including instrument index, instrument datasheets, loop diagrams, P&ID markups, wiring and termination details, panel layouts, I/O lists, and cable and conduit schedules.
Support instrument sizing and selection calculations, including flow element sizing, control valve sizing, level, pressure and temperature sizing and range setting; loop power and signal calculations, for senior review.
Learn and apply control system architecture and communication requirements, and gather information needed for protocol selection such as HART, Modbus, Profibus, Foundation Fieldbus, Ethernet/IP, and OPC, along with network layouts and remote I/O or RTU interfaces.
Draft control narratives, functional descriptions, technical reports, specifications, cost estimate backup, equipment selections, construction documents, and other project deliverables for senior engineer review.
Perform self-checks on assigned work before submittal, assist with quality control reviews at project milestones, and help verify that deliverables are complete and follow applicable ISA, NEC, NFPA, and client standards as well as project scope.
Help resolve routine design and construction-phase issues, draft responses to RFIs, review vendor submittals and instrument data for conformance with the design, and escalate unusual or complex items to a senior engineer.
Support factory acceptance testing, loop checks, point to point verification, calibration records, commissioning, and startup under supervision, including punch list tracking and as-built markups.
Communicate with internal project teams, instrument and control system vendors, and contractors on assigned tasks, and participate in client, operations, and vendor meetings alongside a senior engineer, including taking notes and tracking action items.
Build technical knowledge through mentorship, formal training, self-learning, and hands-on project and field work, ask questions when direction is unclear, and share lessons learned with peers.
