Siemens Gamesa

A Summary of your day

This role is a replacement to ensure business continuity within the Engineering team for Controls & Digitalization in Latin America, supporting Siemens Energy's Gas Services division. The position is critical for maintaining operational stability and service delivery for electrical, instrumentation, and control systems. To meet these objectives, the role is structured around three core areas: Control Systems Engineering & Design, focusing on the development and implementation of I&C solutions including excitation systems; Operational Support & Troubleshooting, dedicated to maintaining and resolving issues in existing systems; and Project Execution & Documentation, ensuring professional standards and customer-focused project deliverables are met. Given the focus on these areas, the ideal candidate will be an experienced professional with a degree in Electrical or Control Engineering. They must possess practical experience in designing and troubleshooting industrial control systems such as PLCs, SCADA, and DCS, and be capable of working independently with general supervision to deliver the best solutions for customer needs.
