Instrumentation Engineer III

Quanta Power Solutions brings together the industry-leading capabilities and resources of Quanta's operating companies to deliver complete EPC solutions. Our integrated approach spans power generation, battery energy storage, renewables, transmission, substation, and underground infrastructure — from concept to commissioning, we execute complex power infrastructure projects with the speed, certainty, and operational excellence our customers depend on.

At Quanta Power Solutions, we are driven by a culture of safety, integrity, and disciplined execution — and we're building a team that shares that commitment.

Quanta Power Solutions is seeking an experienced Instrumentation Engineer III to lead the design, development, and implementation of instrumentation and control systems for power generation, renewable energy, battery energy storage systems (BESS), data centers, substations, transmission, and industrial infrastructure projects. This role is responsible for independently executing complex instrumentation and control engineering assignments, supporting multidisciplinary EPC project teams, and providing technical leadership throughout project execution from conceptual design through commissioning.

The ideal candidate will possess strong expertise in industrial automation, process control systems, PLC/DCS platforms, and field instrumentation while serving as a technical resource for junior engineers and designers.
