About Redwood Materials

Redwood Materials was founded in 2017 to create a circular supply chain for electric vehicles and clean energy products, making them more sustainable and driving down the cost for batteries. We’re doing this by developing and deploying new technologies to increase the scope and scale of recycled and sustainable materials in the global battery supply chain.

About the Role

Redwood Materials is seeking a highly skilled and experienced Instrumentation and Controls (I&C) Design Engineer to join our team. As an I&C Design Engineer, you will play a crucial role in the design, development, and implementation of instrumentation and control systems that ensure the safe and efficient operation of our plants.

Responsibilities

  • Contribute to the development of I&C system designs that meet the specific requirements of the plant, focusing on safety, efficiency, and reliability.
  • Responsible for development of detailed 'Issued for Construction Drawings' (IFC) and 'As-Built Drawings' (ABD) to support the installation and permitting of the control systems and instrumentation.
  • Plan drawings showing locations of instruments, and control panels
  • Raceway drawings to show conduit and cable tray sizing and routing, including fill calculations
  • Circuit Schedules for low voltage control signal, power, and network wiring
  • Instrument wiring details
  • Instrument schedule(s)
  • Instrument installation details
  • Develop and maintain instrumentation installation specification
  • Review and edit P&ID (Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams), loop diagrams, and control system narratives according to ISA standard.
  • Support the controls engineering team in specification and selection of appropriate I&C devices, ensuring compatibility with process and environmental requirements.
  • Participate in process hazard analysis (PHA), hazard and operability studies (HAZOP), and layers of protection analysis (LOPA) to identify and mitigate potential safety risks.
  • Create and maintain accurate documentation of instrument datasheets, specifications, and technical reports, including comprehensive I/O lists, valve lists and instrument lists.
  • Develop commissioning procedures for instrumentation systems.
  • Collaborate with project managers, other engineers, and technicians to coordinate the installation, commissioning, and maintenance of I&C systems.
  • Collaborate with electrical engineer(s) to size new or share existing cable tray systems for I&C systems.
  • Assist in procurement activities by providing technical expertise in selecting instrumentation equipment and components, and working with vendors to procure components.
  • Provide technical support to operations and maintenance teams for instrumentation-related issues and breakdowns.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve control system problems, ensuring minimal downtime and disruptions.

Requirements

  • Professional engineering license (PE) is a plus
  • Familiarity with industry standards and regulations, such as ISA, NEC and ANSI
  • Proficiency in CAD software, specifically AutoCAD and REVIT, and instrumentation design tools
  • Experience with Comos, Aveva Instrumentation, or Smart Plant is a plus
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills
  • Commitment to safety and quality in all aspects of work
