Sr. Commissioning Engineer - Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation & Controls

Sr. Commissioning Engineer - Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation & Controls

REQUIRED:

70% travel throughout North America

You’ll be on the front lines bringing new waste-to-energy, renewable energy, and industrial process facilities to life across North America.

From pre-commissioning through start-up, performance testing, and handover, you own the details that make complex plants run safely and reliably.

You’re the one in the field verifying systems, chasing down issues in process and control systems, and proving that everything works the way it should.

If you live for hands-on commissioning, troubleshooting, and getting plants over the line into full operation, we want to talk to you.

You’ll get deep into the systems that make industrial and renewable facilities run:

• Waste-to-energy and renewable energy process systems
• Mechanical and electrical systems from equipment to balance of plant
• Instrumentation, controls, and automation systems
• PLC, HMI, and SCADA-based control systems
• Industrial communication networks and field instrumentation
• Start-up, performance testing, and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT)
• Commissioning documentation, test protocols, and punch lists
• Safety and risk management in active industrial environments

You’ll work daily with P&IDs, process flow diagrams, electrical drawings, control schematics, and technical documentation to prove systems are ready for operation.

Your mission: take complex, multidisciplinary plants from "mechanically complete" to "fully running and handed over".
