About the role
- We are seeking an experienced Senior Instrumentation Systems Engineer to lead the design and integration of measurement systems for high-temperature industrial energy storage equipment. This role owns the architecture and implementation of temperature, pressure, and flow instrumentation throughout the system, ensuring reliable operation in extreme thermal
- The ideal candidate combines deep instrumentation expertise with strong mechanical integration skills and is comfortable collaborating across thermal, electrical, refractory, insulation, structural, manufacturing, and controls subsystems to develop robust, manufacturable solutions.
Responsibilities
- Lead the design and integration of instrumentation systems for high-temperature equipment operating at temperatures up to 1500°C.
- Select, specify, and validate temperature, pressure, and flow measurement devices for harsh industrial environments.
- Develop instrumentation architectures spanning thermocouples and other sensing technologies, wiring and harness systems, penetrations, electrical interfaces, and controls system integration.
- Design thermocouple installations that ensure measurement accuracy, long-term reliability, maintainability, and manufacturability.
- Design instrumentation interfaces through insulation systems, refractory assemblies, structural components, pressure boundaries, and equipment casings.
- Develop validation strategies, support commissioning activities, investigate field issues, and drive continuous improvement in instrumentation reliability and performance.
- Collaborate closely with thermal, heater, refractory, insulation, structural, electrical, and controls teams to incorporate instrumentation requirements early in the design process.
- Develop solutions for instrumentation integration near high-temperature heating elements and electrically energized components, including appropriate consideration of creepage, clearance, grounding, shielding, and electrical isolation requirements.
- Own instrumentation BOMs, specifications, documentation, and configuration management, ensuring component selections, design revisions, and procurement requirements are accurately captured and controlled throughout the product lifecycle.
- Lead cross-functional instrumentation integration across multiple engineering disciplines, identifying interface gaps, resolving ownership ambiguities, allocating requirements, and driving technical alignment throughout the product lifecycle.
Requirements
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Instrumentation Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related discipline.
- Deep expertise in industrial instrumentation systems including temperature, pressure, and flow measurement technologies.
- Strong understanding of high-temperature environments and instrumentation challenges associated with thermal gradients, thermal cycling, and long-term durability.
- Working knowledge of instrumentation circuits, signal integrity, groun
