What is a remote entry level instrumentation & controls engineer?

Remote Entry Level Instrumentation & Controls Engineers are professionals who work from off-site locations to assist in designing, developing, and maintaining systems that monitor and control machinery or processes in industries such as manufacturing, energy, or utilities. Their work typically involves programming, configuring instrumentation devices, troubleshooting, and supporting control systems under the guidance of senior engineers. Entry level roles focus on learning industry standards, supporting project teams, and gaining hands-on experience with instrumentation hardware and software. Working remotely, they use digital collaboration tools to communicate with on-site staff and complete project tasks.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote entry level instrumentation & controls engineer?

To thrive as a Remote Entry Level Instrumentation & Controls Engineer, you need a foundational knowledge of electrical engineering principles, instrumentation systems, and control theory, typically supported by a relevant engineering degree. Familiarity with industry-standard software such as AutoCAD, PLC programming platforms (e.g., Rockwell, Siemens), and SCADA systems is essential, and certifications like EIT (Engineer-in-Training) can be advantageous. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective remote communication are key soft skills that distinguish successful candidates. These skills and qualifications ensure accurate system design, efficient troubleshooting, and effective collaboration with multidisciplinary teams in remote work environments.

What are some common challenges faced by remote entry level instrumentation & controls engineers, and how can they be overcome?

Remote entry level Instrumentation & Controls Engineers often face challenges such as limited hands-on access to equipment, coordinating with on-site teams, and managing effective communication across time zones. To overcome these, it's helpful to leverage virtual simulation tools, participate actively in video meetings, and maintain clear documentation of your work. Building strong relationships with senior engineers and local technicians can also help you gain practical insights and support when troubleshooting issues remotely.

Job description

Plant Integrated Analysis Engineer

Location: Bellevue, WA Job Type: Contract Work Model: Hybrid (Primarily Remote) Schedule: 40 hours/week

System One is seeking a highly motivated Plant Integrated Analysis Engineer to support the development of advanced sodium-cooled nuclear reactor technology. This role will focus on plant-level thermal-hydraulic analysis, transient modeling, and control system performance to support reactor design, safety, and operational excellence.

Working as part of a multidisciplinary engineering team, you'll collaborate with safety, instrumentation & controls (I&C), and system design engineers to model, analyze, and validate complex plant systems.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and maintain RELAP5-3D models for steady-state and transient one-dimensional hydraulic network analyses.
  • Perform plant-level thermal-hydraulic analyses for normal operating conditions, upset events, and emergency scenarios.
  • Develop, evaluate, and optimize plant control strategies and component-level control systems.
  • Perform first-principles engineering calculations involving heat transfer, fluid dynamics, and thermodynamics.
  • Analyze plant-wide transients to support operational strategies and reactor design improvements.
  • Conduct multidisciplinary analyses involving sodium, molten salt, and non-condensable fluid systems.
  • Collaborate with system, component, fuel, safety, and I&C engineering teams.
  • Support the development, validation, and improvement of analytical methods and modeling approaches.
  • Prepare technical documentation and communicate analysis results to cross-functional engineering teams.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree or higher in Nuclear Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
  • Experience using thermal-hydraulic system analysis codes such as RELAP5 or TRACE.
  • Strong experience performing one-dimensional hydraulic network and transient thermal-hydraulic analyses.
  • Solid understanding of heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and thermodynamics.
  • Excellent analytical, technical writing, and communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience modeling plant control systems and Instrumentation & Controls (I&C).
  • Background supporting commercial or advanced nuclear power plant design or operations.
  • Experience developing or improving analytical methods and engineering models.
  • Experience working within a highly regulated engineering environment.

Additional Information

  • Travel: Up to 5%
  • Work Environment: Primarily remote with occasional onsite collaboration.
  • Physical Requirements: Standard office environment with the ability to sit or stand for extended periods and lift up to 25 pounds as needed.
