BEC Engineering is a well-established Electrical, Power and Control Systems Engineering Services consultancy located in Burswood. With nearly 30 years in the industry, we provide electrical engineering consultancy for mining, materials handling, utilities and infrastructure projects.
This role will form part of the core Control Systems and Automation team providing specialised consulting in control system and control system network design for mineral processing applications. Working closely with the clients, the role will provide detailed control system design. This will include developing specifications from P&IDs and design documentation, establishing PLC network design using a variety of architectures. Programming PLC, HMI and SCADA will be a critical responsibility, as will program device interfaces with communication protocols (Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, Profibus, Profinet, EthernetIP). You will be responsible for conducting software simulations, bench testing and FAT testing. Control System engineers will also work with commissioning and fault finding and diagnostics of operational systems.
You will have recognised Electrical Engineering qualifications majoring in Automation or Control Systems. You will have at least 3 years post-graduation experience in automation/control systems engineering design in the mineral processing sector. Experience should have been gained with a consulting or engineering firm; however, experience with an operator can be considered. Experience with control system design is essential, as is programming PLC, HMI and SCADA. Experience with Schneider, Rockwell or GE PLCs hardware and CITEC SCADA is preferred. While design and programming skills are essential, you will also be comfortable with testing and commissioning both in the office and on site. Comfortable working independently or as part of a team throughout a commissioning period on-site and handling client liaison will be essential. A positive can-do attitude and approach to troubleshooting is essential, as is the ability to communicate effectively with clients, equipment vendors, contracting engineers and colleagues.
When working at BEC, you will enjoy:
- Competitive salary and benefits package.
- Relaxed and professional work environment with excellent work-life balance.
- The opportunity to further your skills and abilities through work variety and professional development training.
