• Prepare, review, and coordinate: instrument location plans, instrument installation details, loop diagrams, wiring and interconnection diagrams, junction box layouts, cable schedules, instrument indexes, control panel and marshalling cabinet layouts, instrument cable routing plans, P& and revisions, control system interface drawings.
• Create detailed construction packages utilizing engineering specifications, calculations, vendor documentation, and project requirements.
• Ensure instrumentation designs support constructability, maintainability, safety, and operational requirements.

Advanced Design & Modeling

• Utilize AutoCAD, Revit, Plant 3D, Navisworks, and related design platforms to develop detailed engineering drawings and models.
• Participate in 3D model development and interdisciplinary design reviews.
• Develop complex instrumentation layouts and equipment arrangements.
• Support BIM coordination and clash detection activities.
• Maintain compliance with company drafting standards and project requirements.

Instrumentation Systems Design

• Support the design and layout of pressure, temperature, flow, and level instrumentation, analytical instrumentation systems, control valve assemblies, instrument air systems, PLC, DCS, and SCADA interfaces, process automation systems, field instrumentation networks.
• Assist engineers with instrument installation requirements and control system integration.
• Develop material take-offs (MTOs) and quantity estimates for procurement and construction activities.

Project Execution

• Execute instrumentation design activities throughout conceptual design, detailed engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning phases.
• Monitor assigned deliverables and ensure alignment with project schedules and budgets.
• Review vendor drawings, equipment packages, and technical documentation.
• Support engineering scope development and project planning activities.
• Identify design challenges and recommend practical solutions.

Multidisciplinary Coordination

• Coordinate instrumentation design activities with electrical, mechanical, process, civil, structural, and construction teams.
• Participate in interdisciplinary design reviews and constructability assessments.
• Resolve design interface issues and drawing conflicts.
• Ensure instrumentation systems are properly integrated into overall facility designs.

Construction & Field Support

• Conduct field verification activities and site walkdowns.
• Support responses to Requests for Information (RFIs) and field design questions.
• Revise drawings based on field conditions and as-built requirements.
• Support startup and commissioning activities through design clarification and technical assistance.
• Participate in equipment installation reviews and construction progress meetings.

Leadership & Mentorship

• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to Instrumentation Designer I and II personnel.
• Review junior designer work for accuracy, quality, and adherence to standards.
• Assist in training and development of design team members.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives and development of design best practices.
• Promote safety, quality, and engineering excellence throughout project execution.
