The framework supports the site's high-hazard risk reduction programme.
We have existing Teams out of Birchwood Park, Warrington, Cumbria and Newcastle North East, where we can manage hybrid working, with occasional site visits.
Role Description
*
To design, develop, implement and test PLC-based control systems, producing high-quality and comprehensive engineering design documentation such as:
*
Requirements capture and traceability documentation (URS/RTM), System / Functional Design Specifications (SDD/FDS), Detailed Software System Specifications (SSS)
*
Test Specifications (Module/Integration/System/Hardware), Operation & Maintenance Manuals (O&M), System Rebuild Documentation
*
I/O, Alarm & Message Schedules, Support with project Life Time Records / Material Traceability Records
In addition to the above, the role shall support the Lead Engineer and Project Manager in maintaining the planned delivery schedule, reporting technical issues, changes in scope and variations to the programmed activities where necessary.
