Description:
TELEMETRY CONFIGURATION / TESTING ENGINEER
Kings Lynn
The Company:
Dodd Group was formed in 1947 in Shropshire and has remained a privately owned family business ever since. With an unrivalled reputation within the building services sector, we offer a comprehensive electrical and mechanical design, installation and maintenance service across many sectors.
The role:
The King’s Lynn branch of Dodd Group is expanding its Telemetry Configuration Team that configures, tests and supports the installation of microprocessor-based telemetry outstations on water utility sites.
The role demands accuracy, an eye for detail, a diligent nature and an affinity for technology, computing and problem-solving. Competence and confidence with MS Office are necessary – particularly Excel. Experience of telemetry, PLC systems, instrumentation or similar systems will be a distinct advantage.
The preferred candidates will be capable of carrying out activities such as:
· ‘Desktop surveys’ of I/O, control and communications requirements based on existing outstation configurations.
· Remapping outstation and PLC data from existing templates to new ones.
· Recreating modular and bespoke control and signal conditioning software code using commercial (e.g. Straton, RSLogix) and proprietary applications.
· Functional testing of configured hardware at works.
· ‘Top-end’ support of outstation installation and commissioning.
· Carrying out periodic quality checks of data from newly-installed outstations.
· Creating/updating outstation mimics (interactive process diagrams) on the ‘top-end’ system.
You will receive full training on the telemetry equipment and software tools.
The Package:
You will be working for a company who will offer you a structured opportunity to progress your career and offer continued support and training. You will receive a competitive salary, life cover, pension, 21 days per year annual leave (plus public holidays).
You’ll be working in a friendly, inclusive environment where people understand the value of their contribution and are encouraged to recognise a job well done. You’ll be part of an open, engaged culture where everyone has a voice and the opportunity to get involved, as well as make a real difference.
