NoPo Nanotechnologies is seeking a highly skilled Senior Electronics and Instrumentation Engineer to join our team and take ownership of integrating all of our electronics so that they work together seamlessly across the HiPCO reactor and other sub-systems.The ideal candidate will design a range of instruments and electronics, integrate them into a cohesive whole, and continually refine the overall setup for reliability and performance. Hands-on experience with SCADA systems is essential Hands-on experience with SCADA systems is essential, particularly ABB Ability System 800xA distributed control systems (DCS), including system configuration, integration, troubleshooting, commissioning, and plant-wide control implementation. —alongside the design of fail-safe control that monitors temperature, pressure, and various sensors and controls heaters.
Experience with SCR, TRIAC, and Thyristor-based power control circuits for industrial heating applications is essential.
Experience designing industrial heaters (2 kW and above), including Nikrothal-based heating elements, thermal management, and power sizing, is highly desirable. The candidate should be proficient in Python programming and able to work with or guide a team in programming. We are looking for someone with solid hands-on experience and a demonstrated willingness to learn new things and put them into practice, while holding an uncompromising standard for quality.
The successful candidate will work in a fast-paced startup environment, contribute to life-critical systems, and play a key role in system testing, documentation, and continuous improvement
Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and integrate the full range of electronics and instrumentation across the HiPCO reactor and supporting sub-systems so that every component works together seamlessly.
- Architect, configure, commission,
and maintain SCADA-based supervisory control systems, with particular focus on ABB Ability™ System 800xA DCS, for plant-wide monitoring, control, alarm management, historian integration, and operator interface development.
- Design and develop fail-safe control systems, Develop and validate interlocks, alarm strategies, emergency shutdown (ESD) logic, and other process safety functions to ensure safe operation of high-temperature and pressure systems.
- Utilize expertise in TRIACS, SCR, and Thyristor circuits to ensure optimal performance and reliability of the control system.
- Design heaters of 2KW and above using Nikrothal elements, considering electrical characteristics and thermal management.
- Program or guide the team in programming using Python for control system implementation and automation.
- Utilize and program PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) for efficient control system operation and integration.
- Integrate instrumentation, PLCs, DCS systems, HMIs, historians, and field devices using industrial communication protocols such as Mod-bus, Profibus, OPC-UA, Ethernet/IP, or equivalent.
- Apply solid circuit design knowledge and electrical and electronics engineering principles to develop robust system architectures.
- Continuously refine and improve instruments, electronics, and control systems based on performance feedback and technological advancements.
- Test systems thoroughly to ensure safe and reliable operation in life-critical applications,
while holding a strict standard for quality.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including process engineers and technicians, to ensure seamless integration of all systems.
- Document designs, specifications, test procedures, and maintenance guidelines.
