About the Job

We are seeking an experienced, technically strong, and hands-on Lead Control & Automation Engineer to take full ownership of control and automation systems across our water, wastewater, desalination, and industrial utility project portfolio. This role spans the complete EPC lifecycle — from engineering design and procurement through installation, testing, commissioning, and plant handover — for facilities such as water treatment plants, sewage/wastewater treatment plants, RO/desalination plants, and industrial process utilities.

The ideal candidate is not purely a desk-based engineer: they are expected to be personally hands-on with design work, PLC/SCADA programming, and on-site troubleshooting, while also leading multidisciplinary engineering teams, coordinating with consultants, clients, and EPC contractors, and driving quality, safety, and schedule compliance.

Responsibilities

1. Control Systems: PLC, HMI, SCADA &Automation

  • Develop control philosophy, functional design specifications (FDS)/detailed design specifications (DDS), and control narratives for PLC/HMI/SCADA systems, including membrane systems(polymeric/ceramic), mix-bed systems, and VFD networks
  • Personally perform or closely supervise:
  • PLC programming on Siemens, and Allen-Bradley/Rockwell platforms, per IEC 61131-3 programming standards
  • HMI development using platforms such as Siemens WinCC, or equivalent
  • SCADA system configuration and development using platforms such as Wonderware SCADA, WinCC, or equivalent, including tag database design, alarm management, trending, and reporting
  • Design and implement plant-wide industrial network architecture using protocols such as PROFIBUS, MODBUS, CANopen, and Ethernet, including Schneider + Siemens mixed-vendor networks
  • Integrate control systems with Facilities Management Control Systems (FMCS) and RTU systems as required
  • Plan and execute factory acceptance testing(FAT), site acceptance testing (SAT), loop checks, and full functional/commissioning testing of control systems
  • Develop and maintain system documentation: I/O lists, logic diagrams, network architecture drawings, alarm/event configurations, and as-built records
  • Provide ongoing troubleshooting, performance optimization, and day-to-day maintenance leadership for control systems post-commissioning

2. Construction, Testing & Commissioning

  • Oversee field installation for water treatment, wastewater/sewage treatment, RO/desalination, and industrial utility facilities, ensuring work is executed per approved design and quality standards
  • Troubleshoot design or installation issues on-site, providing hands-on technical resolution
  • Coordinate site acceptance testing (SAT), loop checks, and functional testing with construction and commissioning teams

3. Team Leadership & Development

  • Manage day-to-day workload, priorities, and performance of the instrumentation, and controls engineering team
  • Mentor and coach engineers and technicians, building technical capability across design, programming, and commissioning disciplines
  • Foster a collaborative, safety-first, and quality-driven team culture

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Control and Automation Engineering
  • Experience in working Water Treatment System would be an advantage
  • Minimum 8 years of progressive, international experience delivering control and automation solutions for water, wastewater, desalination, industrial utilities, or mission-critical infrastructure projects
  • Proven track record managing the complete EPC lifecycle — engineering, procurement, installation, and commissioning (FAT/SAT)— for municipal and industrial clients
  • Experience across major/large-scale plants such as water treatment plants, sewage/wastewater treatment plants, RO/desalination plants, and power/industrial utility projects strongly preferred

Technical Skills

  • Proficient in PLC programming across **Siemens, and Allen-Bradley/Rockwell** platforms, per IEC 61131-3 programming standards
  • SCADA system expertise in **Wonderware SCADA and Siemens WinCC
  • Accomplished in multiple automation/industrial network protocols: **MODBUS, PROFIBUS, CANopen, and Ethernet
  • Experience integrating Facilities Management Control Systems (FMCS) and RTU systems with plant automation
  • Experience with FAT/SAT processes, loop checks, and full system commissioning

Leadership & Soft Skills

  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills for client and stakeholder-facing engagements
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities under tight project schedules
  • Problem-solving mindset with the ability to work hands-on when needed, not only in a supervisory capacity

Availability & Flexibility

  • Willingness to work extended hours, including weekends and holidays, to respond to emergencies and meet critical project schedules
