Process Control Engineer (Hybrid Working)
Location: Portsmouth, Hampshire
An ambitious clean‑tech company is on a mission to make innovative energy storage the global standard. Enabling manufacturers, industrial processors, and heavy‑energy users to decarbonise at scale.
As part of their growth, they’re looking for a Process Control Engineer to take ownership of the control logic, instrumentation, and system architecture behind a next‑generation thermal energy storage steam generator. This is a pivotal opportunity to shape a first‑of‑its‑kind industrial product as it moves through design, prototype optimisation, and deployment into real customer sites.
As Process Controls Engineer, you will:
Become the internal authority on control sequences, fluids system control, and instrumentation — guiding the operability, safety, and performance of a breakthrough energy system. You’ll work across concept design, detailed engineering, prototype testing, and customer‑site integration.
This is a rare opportunity to:
- Shape the full control architecture of a new industrial clean‑energy product
- Influence how the system operates, responds, and manages faults across all conditions
- Work closely with fluids, mechanical, and automation specialists to ensure seamless system behaviour
- Play a hands‑on role in prototype optimisation and commissioning on real industrial sites
Key Responsibilities
- Own the complete control logic and operating sequences for the thermal storage steam generator
- Design high‑level control strategies to maximise system operability, safety, and performance
- Specify instrumentation and controls hardware including valves, VFDs, pressure/temperature sensors, flow meters, and safety devices
- Proven experience designing complete control sequences for complex or novel industrial systems
- Strong knowledge of industrial fluids systems (valves, pumps, piping), ideally including steam processes, especially from a controls perspective
- Strong knowledge of fluids instrumentation and control hardware
Why Join
You’ll be part of a mission‑driven, supportive team working toward a cleaner industrial future. Expect an informal, inclusive culture where every voice is valued. Flexible working, share options, and family‑friendly policies are all part of the offering.
