Job Description
Control Systems Engineer - Submarines
Full Time / Hybrid (3 Days in Office)
Derby, UK
As a Control Systems Engineer, you'll lead and drive from an architectural concept to a physical design. Support the concept development, detailed design, testing and verification whilst ensuring safety is always accounted for. The Controls Systems Engineer will contribute and participate in the development, planning, implementation and adherence of policies and procedures to ensure that the activities considered during the engineering life cycle of a system design are carried out in a consistent and appropriate manner.
Responsibilities:
The Controls Systems Engineer/PLC Engineer will play a vital role to design, specify for manufacture, test, commission, and support both bespoke and commercial off the shelf control system solutions. You'll review and agree high level functional and operational requirements including their testability.
Your main responsibilities will include:
Design and implement complex control system solutions to meet the high-level requirements, constraints or standards. Working in a cross-disciplinary environment to develop solutions for new production and experimental test facilities; understanding functional requirements and performance capabilities of the system to facilitate effective system design. Software Development: Write complex software modules from philosophy documents or transform obsolete control systems into modern, software-driven solutions. Hardware Design: Design in detail new hardware solutions from concept documents such as P&IDs, equipment schedule etc. for new installations as well as to replace outdated control systems or upgrade existing ones. Problem-Solving: Identify and rectify issues during software/hardware integration testing and support the commissioning team during equipment/software installation. Prepare technical reports and documentation to a standard compatible with engineering best practice. Be the technical support to the supply chain, including the assessment of electrical and control system components and design definition updates. Also undertake the project planning and control to ensure cost and schedule adherence. Who we are looking for :
Ideally you should have carried out a similar role in the industrial sector and have experience of the requirements in the manufacturing facilities and/or nuclear sector. Hands-on experience with industrial control systems applications and industrial IT/OT networks. Specific experience with Rockwell/Allen Bradley Control Systems is advantageous. Hands-on experience of specifying and designing control system hardware including familiarity with various I/O signal type interfaces with instrumentation. Working knowledge of change/configuration management tools and processes, as well as experience with IT tools and software for control system design such as AutoCAD Electrical and/or E-Plan. Ideally have experience with the Engineering Product/Project Lifecycle (Initial Requirements through to Disposal). Ideally have a broad understanding of relevant IEC standards used in control system design, such as Machinery Directive, BS7671 IET Wiring regulations, IEC 61131, IEC 61508/61511 etc. Proactive and self-starting individual who can work with various disciplines across different engineering functions. A degree or equivalent professional accreditation in an engineering discipline, preferably related to Controls, Electrical, Electronics, Instrumentation, or Software. Member of a professional engineering institution (e.g. The IET), and ideally working towards gaining Chartered status.
To work for the Rolls-Royce Submarines business an individual has to
hold a Security Check clearance.
Rolls-Royce will support the application for Security Clearance if you do not currently already have this in place.
Due to the nature of work the business conducts and the protection of certain assets we can only progress applications from individuals who are a
UK national
or, in MoD approved cases, a dual national. #J-18808-Ljbffr
