An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Controls Systems Engineer to join the business as part of the Software Systems Capability function. As a Control System Design Engineer within the Mission Critical and Health Monitoring team, you will work within a capability to develop solutions to deliver and maintain features that enhance the product offering. You will develop software within a framework of systems utilising hand-code and model-based development techniques as appropriate and required. A variety of coding languages and software development knowledge is required, hence a flexible mindset focussed on integration and problem solving is necessary. The Controls Systems Engineer shall specify, design and validate complex sub-systems, including high-level requirements for the software and / or hardware system components, this will include creation of mathematical models and simulations of control and actuation systems. In this role, you will be responsible for the on-time delivery and quality of the controls sub-system and the artefacts associated with the design, verification and validation of the system. This shall be achieved through decomposition of designs and development of tests, analysis to ensure that the system implementation satisfies the validated requirements. Analyse and translate high level requirements into a validated design for the control and instrumentation system. Capture applicable design constraints (must meet conditions) and quality attributes (may be traded) that apply to the control and instrumentation system. Design and implement the control and instrumentation system to meet the high-level requirements and design constraints/standards. Analyse the control and instrumentation system for functional behaviour, which may include modelling and simulation to demonstrate that the design meets the high-level requirements. Provide targeted testing of control and instrumentation system functionality to support problem investigation and problem closures and customer issues. Liaise with other disciplines to understand functional performance capabilities of components of the system to facilitate effective component design.
