Senior Controls Engineer

About the Role

The Controls Engineer role involves designing, documenting, and programming building automation systems (BAS) in line with project plans and specifications. The engineer will proactively communicate with stakeholders, manage requests for information, and identify technical risks and opportunities. Mentorship of less‑experienced Application Engineers is also a key component of the position. Key responsibilities include designing complete BAS solutions—controllers, sensors, networks, and hardware—and preparing thorough submittal packages and final documentation. The engineer will develop control strategies, program sequences of operation using WebCTRL and Eikon, and integrate third‑party systems, followed by rigorous testing and commissioning. Additional duties involve providing technical support during sales, creating clear RFIs, communicating project risks, and leading safety and ethical compliance while mentoring fellow Controls Engineers. • Design and document building automation systems, including controllers, sensors, networks, and hardware, per project specifications. • Develop and program control strategies using WebCTRL/Eikon, integrating third‑party systems and user interfaces. • Perform functional testing, factory witness tests, and on‑site commissioning of complex BAS projects. • Provide technical support during the sales process, create clear RFIs, and communicate project risks and opportunities. • Mentor junior Controls Engineers while upholding safety standards and the Carrier code of ethics.
