The Graduate Remote Electronics Engineer will assist in the design, development, and support of electronic and electrical solutions for Remote Pipeline Isolation products. The successful candidate will also develop embedded micro controller sensor interfaces.  

The Graduate Remote Electronics Engineer will have the following main duties and responsibilities:

• Designing and developing electronic solutions for Remote Tecno Plugs. This could be ultra-low power analogue electronic design of low noise amplifier filter systems, for Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) magnetic through pipeline communication, to digital embedded microcontroller interfaces for pressure sensors, DC Motors, solenoid drivers, FRAM and SDRAM.
• Testing and configuration of ELF communication Printed Circuit Boards and embedded microcontroller control boards with multiple DC:DC converters, Solenoid drivers and DC motor drivers.
• Testing and configuration of Operator Consoles, Noise Survey Equipment and Subsea through water acoustic telemetry systems.
• Developing microcontroller embedded software (in C) for the control and operation of the Remote Tecno Plug.
• Specification and management of third Parties for the supply of Graphical User Interface development, subsea and topside control cables. Cables and connectors are required to operate in hazardous oil and gas environments, and therefore must be specified suitable for this duty.
• Generating Test Procedures for the verification and configuration of electronic sub-systems.
• Developing custom project specific solutions, which could be camera systems and ROV communication interfaces.

The Graduate Remote Electronics Engineer will follow the Graduate Engineering Development Programme, which will involve rotating around various Company departments, and will involve the following:

• Coordinating all technical documentation, which may be required for the bid submission, such as drawings and operational procedures.
• Responsible for creating and managing project plan, budget and contract milestone.
• Assisting with field surveys as required.
• Coordinating all technical documentation required for the project, including engineering drawings, test procedures, operational procedures and risk assessments.
• Attending client meetings and HAZOP’s as required.
• Ensuring drawings and associated documents are received in a timely manner from Engineering to meet project delivery schedule.
• Participating in design / operational reviews associated with project deliverables.
• Ensuring Purchase Requisitions are raised for all manufacturing and assembly components, which are required for the project.
• Ensuring Manufacturing Request Forms are issued for all components associated with the project.
• Ensuring drawings are issued to manufacturing department in a timely manner to suit Project Schedule.
• Writing all necessary ‘in house’ testing procedures relative to each project undertaken.
• Ensuring Assembly and Test Request Forms are raised, and Assembly / Test Work pack is issued to workshop.
• Writing Operational Procedures for offshore scope of supply.
• Compiling mobilisation list and advising Operations on deployment requirement for offshore personnel.
• Ensuring Manufacturing Record Books, when required, are compiled.

Education / Experience:

• A BSc / BEng (Hons) and / or an MSc Degree in Electronic and Electrical Engineering is essential.
• An engineering background with topside / process / pipeline / subsea experience would be advantageous.
