Pro Sidian seeks an Instrumentation and Control (I&C) Engineer
- Engineering to support an engagement for a liquid waste contractor (Savannah River Remediation [SRMC]) at the Savannah River Site in Aiken, SC, which is owned by the U.S. Department of Energy. This position is located in the Savannah River Site / Aiken, South Carolina Area.

Candidates shall work to support requirements for TBC (Engineering Services) and statement of work (SOW) while maintaining required qualifications Nuclear & Environmental Management Sector. Pro Sidian Team Members work as part of the Instrumentation and Control (I&C) Engineer Engagement Team Cadre to serve as an Instrumentation and Control (I&C) Engineer responsible for performing a variety of Instrumentation and Control (I&C) Engineering assignments, including design, manufacture, test, installation, operation, and maintenance of various process equipment and systems, and generally as a member of a design, construction, operations, or review team on more complex assignments or as a lead on less complex projects.

Provide support engineering services to assigned SRR Engineering Teams. Engineering support services include engineering analysis, walk downs, design development and generation of design output documents including but not limited to: P&IDs Control Logics;
Loop Diagrams;
Instrument Indices;
Setpoint Lists;
Instrument and Control Valve Specifications; DCS and PLC Design;
Instrument Location and Installation Design;
Panel Layouts; and Vendor Document Review. Individual at times will be required to travel off Site to interface with vendors, fabricators and other Engineering organizations. Engineering services will be provided using SRR processes and procedures. Programmatic guidance will be provided by SRR.

A background in Instrumentation and Control Systems is required for this role as well as experience and qualifications for working in a highly regulated field like the Department of Energy or Aeronautics. Most modern control systems employ a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) to control motors, pumps, valves, and other equipment used in a process. Computer-based HMI (Human Machine Interface) products provide how to process personnel interact with the PLC control system.

Control and instrumentation (C&I) engineers are responsible for designing, developing, installing, managing, and maintaining equipment to monitor and control engineering systems, machinery, and processes.
