Senior Project Engineer – Turbomachinery Control Systems

Role Overview

• Lead full engineering lifecycle of turbomachinery control system projects, from initial concept through detailed design, implementation, internal testing, factory acceptance testing (FAT), and final delivery, while ensuring they meet requirements, timeframes, and budgets.
• Lead technical discussions with clients and cross-functional teams, translating complex requirements into robust engineering solutions.
• Work closely with sales, field engineering, and R&D to ensure project objectives are met and solutions are aligned with customer needs.
• Develop comprehensive project documentation, including I/O lists, Network Architecture diagrams, Control System diagrams/P&IDs, Control Narratives, Modbus lists, and FAT/SAT procedures.
• Lead internal testing and reviews to ensure quality and compliance, then lead and manage FAT with clients, including punch-list resolution and project delivery.
• Program and configure PLC/DCS platforms (CCC Prodigy/Vanguard, Allen-Bradley, Honeywell Experion), develop HMI graphics, and implement industrial communication protocols (Modbus, HART, etc).
• Collaborate with project and engineering managers to develop schedules, allocate resources, and manage timelines to ensure successful project completion.
• Learn and master CCC’s proprietary turbomachinery control application algorithms and contribute to ongoing product and process enhancements.
• Provide expert remote support to field engineers during on-site commissioning and troubleshooting phases.
• Maintain and update engineering documents throughout the project lifecycle to reflect evolving customer requirements and design changes.
• Mentor and train junior engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous learning.
• Identify and implement opportunities for process optimization and efficiency gains within engineering workflows and project execution.
