Job Description

Senior Controls Engineer

Location: Lancashire / Cumbria border

I'm working on a confidential senior engineering opportunity with a business developing and integrating control technology for modern energy systems.

The work sits across electrical engineering, controls and software, with applications including battery energy storage, renewable generation, microgrids and hybrid power systems.

The ideal background would include a combination of:

  • PLC and industrial control systems

  • SCADA

  • Energy Management Systems

  • Control system architecture

  • Modbus, CAN, OPC or similar industrial communications

  • Inverters and power conversion

  • Battery Energy Storage Systems

  • Generator and renewable integration

  • Microgrid control

  • Commissioning and fault finding

  • Interfaces between electrical, embedded and software systems

Experience of developing or integrating controls for complex power systems is particularly interesting.

Candidates are likely to come from BESS, power generation, renewables, industrial automation, power electronics or other specialist energy environments.

If you have a strong controls background and are interested in moving further into energy technology, I'd be happy to have a confidential conversation.
