Full Description
About the Role
Experience: 4-10 Years
Location: Bangalore
The ideal candidate should have a robust understanding of various standards such as IEC61508, IEC61511, IEC 61131-2, IEC 61131-3, NFPA, and FM.
Responsibilities
Familiarity with ESD, F&G, High Integrity Pressure Protection Systems (HIPPS), or BMS Systems is essential. A TuV Certification for Functional Safety Engineer would be highly desirable. The candidate should possess hands-on experience with DCS Systems and their communication interfaces. Well-versed in the overall Engineering lifecycle of a Safety System. Experience in Project Engineering, Commissioning, and Maintenance of Safety Instrumented Systems like Honeywell Safety Manager, FSC, HIMA, Triconex, and ABB Safety Systems. Experience in FAT/SAT of Safety Systems will be preferred. A strong background in programming of FBD and other languages as per IEC61131-3 standard is required. Adept at evaluating the Engineering logic against the C&E Matrix during FAT/SAT Phases of Engineering. Experience in working with DCS and ESD systems. Hands-on experience in configuring PLC, Safety, and DCS systems in either commissioning or test environments is crucial. The ability to differentiate between Process Safety and Process Control Requirements is also necessary. Sound knowledge of different communication protocols for third-party interfaces and field device integration, such as HART, Profisafe, etc. Experience with Process Industrial Control systems, preferably Honeywell Experion DCS, Honeywell TDC, or SCADA solutions, is preferred. Experience in product testing and familiarity with test automation tools like Python, Selenium, etc., will be an added advantage. Exposure to Test and Requirement Management Tools such as Jira would also be beneficial. Strong logical reasoning and analytical skills are highly valued.
