· Support safety reviews (HAZOP, SIL, LOPA, C&E)

· Fault finding, testing, and hands-on system evaluation

· Mentor junior engineers within the team

· Work cross-functionally with systems, product, and production teams

What They’re Looking For

· Strong background in electrical system design for industrial equipment

· Experience working to EN 60204 and BS7671 (18th Edition)
