Role description:

Arcadis is looking for an Instrumentation & Controls (I&C) Engineer in the municipal water/wastewater industry to join our growing Resilience team in Columbus, OH.

As an Instrumentation and Controls Engineer, you will collaborate with our experienced team of professionals, providing technical and design consulting services with a focus on instrumentation, controls systems, and associated network and communications infrastructure for municipal water and wastewater conveyance and treatment facilities. 

Role accountabilities:

As an I&C Engineer, you will work in a collaborative environment, focusing on evaluating and designing control system solutions that align with client needs. Your responsibilities include preparing technical memorandums and developing comprehensive design criteria. You will be tasked with crafting SCADA system architectures, communication system and network designs, process and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), SCADA network diagrams, and process control functional narratives. Additionally, you will create specifications, control schematics, panel layout diagrams, interconnection diagrams, and other I&C design documents.

Coordination with process, mechanical, and electrical engineers assigned to the project is a key aspect of the role. You will perform engineering services during the construction phase, which involves reviewing equipment and software submittals, analyzing shop drawings, and responding to contractor RFIs (requests for information). Conducting field inspections is essential, as you will oversee construction projects, identify deviations from design, perform general quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) of completed work, and monitor safety compliance. Your participation in factory testing, site acceptance testing, and project startup is critical to the success of the project.

Furthermore, you will provide electrical design and coordination for various projects, with a focus on medium and low voltage power distribution, motor controls, lighting, and grounding systems, particularly for water and wastewater projects. Travel is required to support project needs, primarily in the Columbus area, and will constitute approximately 5 to 10% of your time.

Qualifications & Experience:

Required Qualifications:

•  Bachelor’s degree in electrical or controls engineering or a closely related field of study.
•  0-3+ years of I&C, Automation, and SCADA system design and implementation experience in the water/wastewater field.

• Experience in applying instrumentation and controls to process and electromechanical equipment
• Basic understanding of industrial network design and implementation
• Basic knowledge of Autocad and Revit
