Point to Point Test Analyst - 6 month Contract - INSIDE IR35 - Hybrid - Warwick
Our global consultancy client is supporting a major UK electricity transmission operator through a significant SCADA transformation programme. As part of the separation from the National Electricity System Operator (NESO), the programme involves migrating all SCADA operations to a new standalone OSI Aspentech/DGM Monarch SCADA platform.
The new SCADA system will manage approximately 350 substations and over 700,000 sensor data points, integrating with wider enterprise systems to reduce manual handling, ensure safety, and support a more digital operation.
To support this, we’re seeking a Point-to-Point Test Analyst to lead a critical testing phase that ensures accurate data migration and telemetry/control functionality between the old and new systems. This involves the simulation and validation of real-world devices using an emulator and live telemetry, ensuring data integrity and control mapping remain consistent across platforms.
