Electric Hydrogen
Overview
Electric Hydrogen’s mission is to make molecules to decarbonize our world! Our outstanding people are our most important asset and will allow us to deliver hydrogen from renewable electrolysis for heavy industry, at prices below fossil fuels. We are looking for a Senior Control Systems Engineer to join our team. You will develop and maintain control system documentation, including P&IDs, control narratives, I/O lists, loop diagrams, and cause-and-effect matrices for a large-scale electrolyzer system. You will work onsite/hybrid at our San Jose, CA office, or you will work remotely from Houston, TX. You will report to the Director of Software Engineering.
Responsibilities
Develop and maintain control system documentation, including P&IDs, control narratives, I/O lists, loop diagrams, and cause-and-effect matrices for large-scale electrolyzer systems
Specify and design instrumentation systems, including preparation of datasheets, wiring schematics, and technical documentation to support procurement, installation, and commissioning
Collaborate on the design and implementation of PLC and SCADA-based control systems, including I/O definition, logic development, and integration with process equipment
Support the full safety lifecycle for Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS), including participation in PHA/LOPA reviews, SIL determination, and development of SIF documentation and testing procedures
Interface with cross-functional engineering teams to ensure instrumentation and controls meet functional requirements, safety standards, and compliance criteria
Provide field and commissioning support for instrumentation and controls, including startup troubleshooting, loop checks, and system validation
Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Chemical, Electrical, or related engineering discipline
8+ years of experience in instrumentation and controls engineering for industrial applications such as oil & gas, water treatment, or chemical processing
Proficient in developing and interpreting instrumentation documentation including P&IDs, loop diagrams, I/O lists, control narratives, and cause-and-effect matrices
Experience implementing or supporting Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS), including SIL calculations, SIF lifecycle documentation, and participation in PHA/LOPA processes
Familiarity with PLC and SCADA platforms and industrial control architectures, including I/O and communication protocols
Knowledge of process instrumentation technologies, valve and transmitter specifications, and experience interfacing with vendors for design and procurement
Compensation and Benefits HYBRID

About Electric Hydrogen Electric Hydrogen is a team of the world's experts in scaling technologies for the post-carbon world, with a proven record in transforming the grid and transportation sectors. Backed by some of the world's top venture capital firms, we design and manufacture electrolytic hydrogen systems matched to renewable power sources to create green hydrogen by splitting water. We are building a cost-effective and transformative path between renewable energy and multiple large industrial sectors. Abundant and low-cost renewable energy sources will power the world, and Electric Hydrogen technology will use this energy to decarbonize industry through sustainable materials. We were founded in 2020 and are based in California and Massachusetts.
Electric Hydrogen is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace for all to belong. We are aware that people from historically underrepresented groups are less likely to apply if they don't meet 100% of the job requirements. We are actively working on efforts to change this social norm. If you are excited about this role, we encourage you to apply!
