Electrical, Instrumentation, and Controls (EI&C) Supervisor
The APEX Power Co. Project in Hubbard, TX, currently under Phase 1 construction, is expected to expand to 1.6 GW. It features a diverse mix of generation technologies, including Siemens SGT-800/400 simple cycle turbines, MAN/Everllence 18V51/60G gas reciprocating engines, GE LM6000/LM2500 simple cycle turbines, Pratt & Whitney FT8 simple cycle turbines, and a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), enabling flexible, reliable power output.
Future expansion may include additional GE aero and large frame units (6B, 7FA/7FB/7H) in simple or combined cycle configurations, allowing the plant to efficiently meet varying energy demands while supporting data center grid reliability.
As Electrical, Instrumentation, and Controls (EI&C) Supervisor at the APEX Power Co. Project, you will lead and mentor EI&C Technicians while overseeing the installation, calibration, and maintenance of instrumentation, control devices, motors, drives, and electrical systems across turbines, engines, and BESS units. During the pre-commissioning phase, you will ensure control systems are verified, critical materials and high-value components are staged and ready, and technicians are trained and supported to safely execute functional testing and system start-ups.
In ongoing operations, you will optimize PLC, DCS, SCADA, and BESS performance, coordinate with engineering and operations teams, and maintain a proactive safety and compliance culture across all EI&C activities.
Your scope of responsibility as EI&C Supervisor includes the following primary functions:
- Directly supervise EI&C Technicians, providing guidance, assigning daily tasks, and prioritizing workloads to ensure efficient operations.
- Lead and oversee installation, calibration, and preventive maintenance of instrumentation, control devices, motors, drives, and electrical systems across turbines, engines, and BESS.
- Provide technical direction and hands-on support for corrective, predictive, and emergency maintenance on medium- and high-voltage electrical systems.
- Monitor and optimize PLC, DCS, SCADA, and BESS system performance, troubleshooting faults and coordinating programming adjustments with engineering teams.
- Ensure operational reliability of all control and electrical systems under varying plant conditions, identifying and resolving issues proactively.
- Coordinate EI&C work schedules with Operations, Mechanical, and Engineering to minimize downtime and prevent conflicts between teams.
- Supervise safe handling, storage, and disposal of hazardous or regulated materials, including batteries, inverters, transformers, and instrumentation waste.
- Maintain accountability for EI&C tools, test equipment, and specialized instruments, ensuring proper storage, calibration, and readiness for technicians.
- Review and maintain accurate maintenance logs, calibration records, work histories, and control system updates to support operational readiness.
- Foster a proactive safety culture by coaching technicians, conducting daily hazard assessments, and enforcing compliance with plant safety protocols.
- Provide technical mentorship and on-the-job training to EI&C Technicians, ensuring proficiency in troubleshooting, preventive and corrective maintenance, and system operations.
- Stage, track, and ensure readiness of critical parts, materials, and high-value components to support technician workflows for maintenance and operational tasks.
- Conduct performance monitoring and optimization of turbines, engines, and BESS units, guiding technicians on adjustments to maximize efficiency and reliability.
- Provide real-time technical oversight and guidance to contractors or vendors performing EI&C work during outages, maintenance projects, or pre-commissioning activities.
- Lead EI&C response during plant emergencies, directing technicians to safely shut down, isolate, and restore control and electrical systems.
Perform other duties as assigned to support safe, reliable, and compliant plant operations.
