Electrical and Instrumentation Project Engineer 

The Bayer Luling site operates 24/7 365 and is constantly striving to increase safety, reliability, and efficiency in operation. The Project Electrical and Instrumentation Engineer regularly receives project requests that must be evaluated to ensure they correctly resolve the issue the unit is facing. Once evaluated the engineer creates a design that can be installed safely and will operate reliably for years to come with the ability to be maintained. This is only accomplished by working closely with not only other engineers of other disciplines, but by going to the field and working with the operators who will use the equipment. The successful candidate will have knowledge of and experience with both instrumentation systems and low/medium voltage protection and distribution. It is expected that this candidate will be on site whenever required, however we are testing a hybrid work schedule that allows some time to work from home. This role also allows for interaction with many different aspects of the site’s operations and the opportunity to work with many different people at the site including equipment operators and upper level management.

We also offer a breadth of benefits, included (but not limited to) 120 hours of vacation, 128 hours of holiday time, 40 hours sick time, full medical/dental/vision, educational assistance, annual bonus and MORE!
