Role:
We are looking for an ambitious person with relevant electrical and instrumentation engineering experience to join our international team. Do you want to take a key role in the development of wave energy?
Responsibilities:
- Work on electrical instrumentation, automation and network systems, and Extra-Low voltage power distribution within the Wave Energy Converters and in-house test systems
- Establish requirement specifications for systems and components such as: sensors, actuators, network equipment, digital I/O, industrial PC, control cabinets, etc.
- Use EPLAN to create wiring schematics, cable lists and other technical documentation
- Design the system according to relevant standards, such as IEC, DNV-GL, etc.
- Interface with module owners to support implementation of module requirement specifications
- Perform failure mode, effects and criticality analysis for modules and system
- Perform design and built verifications including functional testing
- Investigate new solutions to improve performance, reliability or manufacturability
- Support offshore installations
Skills and Qualifications:
- You have a minimum of 2 years of relevant background of developing instrumentation and automation systems for industrial applications. Having worked with harsh environments such as offshore, mining or other challenging sectors is a plus. You may have a B.Sc or a M.Sc. degree in electrical engineering or related disciplines, but your personality, experience and interest in the field is the most important.
