The Role
Working as part of a collaborative engineering team, you’ll support the design, development, programming, and delivery of smoke control and building safety systems. This is a varied role with plenty of technical depth — ideal for an engineer who enjoys problem‑solving and seeing their work come to life from concept to commissioning.
Key Responsibilities
* Design, validate, and advise on electrical control systems to meet project and safety requirements.
* Review and approve electrical documentation including wiring diagrams, cause & effect matrices, and equipment schedules.
* Work closely with internal teams and external partners to define system architecture and third‑party interfaces.
* Produce AutoCAD control panel drawings and specify components for manufacturing.
* Program, configure, and deploy PLC & HMI systems (preferably Siemens TIA Portal or similar).
* Configure integrated equipment such as VSDs, sensors, and detection systems.
* Conduct software integration and factory testing of control panels.
* Troubleshoot commissioning issues and provide technical support, including occasional site visits.
* Contribute to product development through simulation testing, debugging, and system optimisation.
Experience & Skills Required
* HNC/HND or Degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Mechatronics, Automation, or related discipline.
* Hands-on experience in control panel design and automation software platforms.
* Strong competence in control system programming (ladder logic, structured text, function block, HMI visualisation).
* Knowledge of communication protocols such as Modbus, Ethernet/IP, Profibus.
* Proficiency with electrical design CAD tools (AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, etc.).
* Strong diagnostic and troubleshooting abilities, especially under pressure.
* Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Why Join?
* Work on innovative, safety-critical systems that make a real difference.
* Opportunity to support full project lifecycles — from design to deployment.
* Collaborative and supportive engineering team.
* Professional development and exposure to cutting-edge building safety technology.
