Lead / Senior SCADA & Control Systems Engineer

Role Overview

The position requires a technically strong and self-sufficient contractor who can work remotely, coordinate multidisciplinary engineering activities and deliver high-quality outputs with minimal supervision.

The role will be to support Oil & Gas brownfield engineering projects in Qatar, including work for Madina and potentially QatarEnergy LNG on an HVAC-focused FEED project. It could also potentially support a SCADA upgrade project on a UK-based Interconnector project.

Desired Experience

• Electrical transmission and distribution infrastructure, including HVDC/HVAC Interconnector projects.
• Substation automation, utility control systems and associated SCADA integration.
• SCADA and PLC/HMI system upgrades involving legacy systems, control system modernisation and operational technology migration.
• Brownfield Instrumentation & Control Systems engineering within onshore/offshore Oil & Gas, LNG and petrochemical facilities.
• DCS, ESD and Fire & Gas Systems (FGS), including integration with package control systems and existing operational facilities.
• Control system adequacy assessments, equipment obsolescence evaluations and modifications to existing control systems.
• FEED and detailed engineering for control system modifications, including HVAC, F&G and associated instrumentation interfaces.
• Industrial communication networks, control system architectures and relevant communication protocols.
• Experience with major PLC, DCS and SCADA vendors, platforms and System Integrators.
• Critical infrastructure requiring high system availability, reliability and operational resilience.
• Brownfield site surveys, vendor technical reviews, system integration and testing support.

Additional Opportunities - Oil & Gas

• Brownfield Instrumentation & Control Systems engineering for onshore and offshore Oil & Gas and LNG facilities.
• Control system modernisation, upgrades and integration with existing operational assets.
• PLC/HMI system upgrades, including control panel modifications, system interfaces and communication networks.
• DCS, ESD and Fire & Gas Systems (FGS) integration with existing facilities and package control systems.
• Control system adequacy assessments, equipment obsolescence evaluations and brownfield engineering modifications.
• HVAC FEED engineering, including F&G detection, HVAC shutdown interfaces and associated control system modifications.
• Control system engineering design, technical assessments and multidisciplinary interface coordination.
• Vendor and System Integrator coordination, technical reviews and engineering support.
• Brownfield site surveys, system migration, testing support with EPC contractor.
