About Us

Ardent Process Technologies is on a mission to save the planet. We create technology to capture and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, avert global warming, and transform industry into a long-term sustainable enterprise. One membrane system at a time. We are expanding our team with ambitious, driven, creative problem solvers and doers who are excited about tackling a challenge and delivering a new product to market.

We are looking for an experienced Instrumentation and Controls Engineer to develop and commission control systems for modular carbon capture skids as well as membrane manufacturing and testing equipment. The ideal candidate will be a generalist with resourcefulness and a bias for action - someone who is comfortable reviewing the network architecture for a large process plant and troubleshooting communication with a laboratory analyzer in the same afternoon.

This role can be fully in-person, or hybrid. The ideal candidate will be in the office at least 2-3 days per week.

What You Will Be Doing

• Lead the process controls design for field, lab and manufacturing systems
• Serve as the resident expert on process instrumentation, guiding sensor and valve selection across projects
• Review and advise on electrical and controls deliverables produced by Ardent's engineering and manufacturing partners, including single line diagrams, detailed schematics, component selection, and PLC software
• Lead development of I / O lists and any required instrument installation procedures
• Support process engineering with PFD / P&ID development, process descriptions, cause and effect documents, and instrument datasheets
• Develop control, network and monitoring architectures and supporting documentation
• Develop PLC-based control algorithms and associated HMI screens for chemical processes, including fully automated, semi-automated and manual control modes
• Develop software for input and output processing of analog and digital signals
• Develop specifications for and support the selection of controllers, I / O cards, historians, network cards and remote access equipment
• Develop communication protocols for interfacing with facilities and third-party systems
• Support bump tests and loop checks for equipment and instruments
• Test and tune control loops for lab, manufacturing and field systems
• Implement and test alarms and interlocks included in safety systems
• Travel to sites where systems are built and / or deployed to support FAT, commissioning and troubleshooting of electrical and control systems
