Instrumentation and Controls Designer

• Support project execution from early planning and pre design through detailed design, construction administration, startup, and turnover for semiconductor and advanced technology facilities.
• Coordinate control system requirements with process, mechanical, electrical, fire protection, and architectural teams to ensure fully integrated and constructible solutions.
• Prepare and review P&IDs, sequence of operations, instrument index, device schedules, valve and sensor selection, and control panel layouts.
• Perform design calculations and technical evaluations related to instrument sizing, control valve selection, signal compatibility, redundancy, alarming, and system performance.
• Review vendor submittals, factory documentation, and equipment data sheets to confirm compliance with project requirements and control system intent.
• Participate in client meetings, design reviews, and coordination sessions to communicate technical decisions, resolve scope questions, and support alignment on project objectives.
• Support QA/QC reviews of design packages to verify accuracy, completeness, code compliance, constructability, and consistency across disciplines.
• Respond to RFIs, review construction submittals, and support field coordination during installation to resolve conflicts and preserve design intent.
• Conduct site walks, verify existing conditions, and assist with field troubleshooting, punchlist resolution, and as built documentation during construction and commissioning.
• Collaborate with startup and commissioning teams to support functional testing, point to point checks, control checkout, and sequence verification.
• Track design changes through formal change control processes, documenting impacts to schedule, cost, safety, and system performance.
• Identify and mitigate technical risks related to controls integration, maintainability, alarm management, and operational reliability.
• Mentor junior staff and contribute to technical development, best practices, and consistent documentation standards across project teams.
• Assocate's degree in engineering design technology, or a related technical field, or equivalent progressive experience in instrumentation and controls design.
• Extensive experience designing instrumentation and control systems for semiconductor, cleanroom, advanced manufacturing, or similarly complex process environments.
• Strong working knowledge of control system components, including sensors, transmitters, analyzers, actuators, control valves, PLCs, DCS, SCADA, and building automation interfaces.
• Demonstrated ability to produce and coordinate detailed engineering deliverables such as P&IDs, control narratives, I/O lists, loop diagrams, wiring diagrams, and installation details.
• Experience reviewing vendor submittals, coordinating with equipment suppliers, and supporting construction and startup activities in fast paced project environments.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary teams, clients, contractors, and commissioning agents while maintaining technical clarity and responsiveness.
• Strong understanding of QA/QC processes, code and standard compliance, change management, and documentation control.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly to both technical and nontechnical stakeholders.
• Proven leadership, mentoring, and coordination skills with the ability to guide design efforts and support less experienced team members.
• Familiarity with design tools and software commonly used for controls documentation, calculation, and coordination, with the ability to learn project specific platforms as needed.
