By leveraging cutting-edge techniques and state-of-the-art software, we deliver industry-leading technology and innovative solutions from day one.

We are seeking an Instrumentation & Controls (I&C) Designer to produce the I&C design deliverables for semiconductor fabrication facility design-build projects. This role sits within the electrical design and engineering group and serves as the primary interface between process/mechanical utility systems and the control systems that monitor and operate them. The successful candidate will develop complete I&C packages within the defined scope, schedule, and cost of the project.

At SSOE, we don’t just talk about the future, we build it. As a leader in industry AI adoption, we empower our team to work smarter by providing responsible access to the industry leading AI Large Language Models, vibe-coding platforms, and securely integrating advanced tools into every role. From day one, you’ll receive the training and support needed to leverage AI as a core tool for enhancing productivity, sparking creativity, and streamlining complex workflows.

• Develop and maintain instrument indices, instrument datasheets, and specification packages for process utility systems.

• Produce loop diagrams, wiring diagrams, termination schedules, and interconnect drawings from field devices to PLC/DCS/BAS I/O.

• Design control panel general arrangements and internal layouts, including terminal schedules, enclosure sizing, and thermal calculations.

• Generate I/O lists and point-to-point schedules; maintain alignment with controller card assignments and spare capacity requirements.

• Develop instrument and control cable schedules, conduit schedules, and raceway routing with appropriate segregation from power circuits.

• Model instrument and panel locations in Revit/AutoCAD; participate in clash detection and coordination reviews.

• Coordinate with electrical designers on panel power sourcing, UPS-backed circuits, grounding, and shielding practices for analog and fieldbus signal runs.

• Coordinate device placement with piping, HVAC, and structural disciplines to ensure calibration and maintenance access.

• Support development of tool hookup packages, including utility interlocks, flow monitoring, and status/alarm points.

• Interface with equipment vendors and OEMs on control interface requirements and submittal review.

• Mentor and check the work of junior and mid-level designers.

• Contribute to design standards, templates, and lessons learned.

• Associate degree in engineering design technology, drafting, or a related technical field; equivalent trade or military technical training with demonstrated experience will be considered.

• Approximately 10 years of instrumentation and controls design experience in industrial, pharmaceutical, microelectronics, or comparable process facility environments.

• Demonstrated ability to independently produce a complete I&C design package with minimal oversight.

• Proficiency in AutoCAD and Revit; working familiarity with model coordination tools such as Navisworks.

• Working knowledge of PLC and DCS hardware architectures, control panel construction, and field instrumentation types.

• Ability to read and interpret P&IDs, one-line diagrams, and process flow diagrams.

• Strong working knowledge of applicable electrical and fire codes and ISA instrumentation standards.

• Salary Range: $80,000 - $100,000/year depending on location, education, depth of relevant experience, and any specialized licensure/certifications. Opportunity for ample rewards, leadership incentive components, and generous bonus opportunities.
• Benefits: Includes comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance, life insurance, 401K retirement savings plan (with company matching), opportunities for professional development and training (including support for relevant licensure & certifications), and generous PTO & paid holidays.
