Position Overview
A Contract position Outside IR35. On-site/Hybrid.
Our client, a prominent player in the automotive industry, is currently seeking a Hydrogen Fuel System Controls Engineer on a contract basis. This role is pivotal in advancing hydrogen fuel systems for the future of clean automotive technology.
Key Responsibilities
* Deliver hydrogen fuel system and infrastructure components within HMS projects, including system architecture, supplier coordination, and timely delivery.
* Lead system-level engineering and safety analysis for hydrogen fuel systems, ensuring compliance with relevant standards.
* Design and implement PLC-based control systems, including automation logic, safety interlocks, and SCADA/HMI interfaces.
* Develop and operate hydrogen/cryogenic test facilities, executing verification & validation activities and producing supporting documentation.
* Analyse test data, generate reports, and support operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of high-pressure gas and hydrogen systems in hazardous environments.
Job Requirements
