Plans, schedules, conducts, or coordinates detailed phases of instrumentation and controls (I&C) engineering work in a part of a major project or in a total project of moderate scope. Performs work which involves conventional I&C engineering practice but may include a variety of complex features such as conflicting design requirements, unsuitability of conventional materials, and difficult coordination requirements. Work requires a broad knowledge of precedents in the specialty area and a good knowledge of and practices of related speculate.
As a fully competent I&C engineer in all conventional experience aspects of the subject matter of the functional area of the assignments, plans and conducts work requiring judgment in the independent evaluation, selection, and substantial adaptation and modification of standard techniques, procedures, and criteria. Devises new approaches to problems encountered. Required sufficient professional experience to ensure competence as a fully trained worker. Provides procurement, field engineering including walk downs, modifications/maintenance, and testing support.
Supervisory Responsibilities
May supervise or coordinate the work of multidiscipline engineers, CAD Technicians, technicians, and others who assist in specific assignments.
Supervision Received
Independently performs most assignments with instructions as to the general results expected. Receives technical guidance on unusual or complex problems and principal engineer's approval on proposed plans for projects.
