Hgen
Senior/Staff Controls Systems Engineer
Hgen, Los Angeles, California, United States, 90079
Hgen's mission is to achieve a clean and sustainable energy future through tackling emissions in hard-to-decarbonize industries. By enabling cheap and abundant clean hydrogen, Hgen aims to help decarbonize the more than 10% of global emissions that are best addressed with hydrogen.
As a
Senior Controls Systems Engineer , you will lead the design, development, and commissioning of critical control systems that operate our electrolyzers. You will leverage your expertise in controls for safety-critical industrial systems to ensure our electrolyzers meet the highest standards of safety, performance, and reliability. This role offers the opportunity to work in a fast-paced, collaborative startup environment, where your contributions will have a direct impact on the future of decarbonization.
Key Responsibilities
Own the design, implementation and success of the process control systems for Hgen's advanced alkaline water electrolyzers. Develop, program, and troubleshoot PLCs, HMIs, and SCADA systems to safely and reliably control all aspects of the hydrogen production process. Oversee the qualification testing, certification and commissioning of control systems, ensuring safe and efficient operation within industrial environments. Act as a chief engineer, engaging in cross-disciplinary collaboration with design engineering to arrive at the simplest system solutions. Drive system-level architecture, balancing process requirements, capabilities, and safety to minimize the cost of hydrogen production. Ensure full compliance of all control systems with industry safety standards and regulatory requirements. Basic Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in relevant engineering discipline (electrical, mechanical, chemical, computer science, or similar). 5+ years of hands-on experience in safety critical controls/automation engineering across development, project execution and maintenance. Proficiency in designing, programming and troubleshooting PLCs, HMIs, and SCADA systems for monitoring and controlling complex industrial processes. Experience with holistic system development, from architecture and hazard analysis to validation and compliance to safety standards and codes. Strong understanding of control theory and process automation, as applied to fluid and gas systems. Preferred Skills and Experience
Experience developing and commissioning control systems in hydrogen production, fuel cells, oil and gas, chemical plants, energy infrastructure or other relevant industries. Working knowledge of industrial process equipment for fluid and gas systems (instrumentation, pumps, valves, heat exchangers, etc.) and high power electrical systems (switchgear, transformers, rectifiers, VFDs). Professional Qualities
Strong interpersonal and collaborative skills, enthusiasm for complex problem solving, and desire to optimize systems holistically. Strong project management skills and effective communication of technical concepts across multi-disciplinary teams. First principles based decision making. Passionate about decarbonization and addressing climate change.
