Location: Kuwait Openings: 1 This Full time on site position offers great opportunities for career growth. Position Overview Consyst is looking for a Control System Engineer to join its Site Services team for projects across Kuwait, Oman and other GCC countries. The role covers on-site commissioning, maintenance, and troubleshooting of PLC, SCADA, and HMI-based control systems across Rockwell, Siemens, and Schneider Electric platforms, along with associated networking, virtualization, and field instrumentation. The engineer will work directly at customer sites, supporting FAT/SAT activities, AMC engagements, and preparing the site documentation that keeps projects and service contracts running smoothly. Responsibilities Commission industrial automation systems on-site, including PLCs, SCADA, HMIs, and field instruments. Supervise on-site activities: panel installation, cable laying, terminations, and equipment setup. Perform I/O wiring verification and loop checks between PLCs and field devices. Download, configure, and validate PLC and HMI/SCADA programs as per project specifications. Execute interlock testing and logic validation as per functional design. Configure and test communication protocols such as Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, Profibus, Profinet, DNP3, IEC 61850, IEC 104, and MQTT. Configure and maintain virtualization environments (virtual machines), NAS storage, remote desktop access, and thin/thick client setups for control system infrastructure. Configure and troubleshoot network switches, including VLAN setup, port management, and network topologies such as DLR and PRP. Interpret electrical wiring diagrams, P&IDs, and loop drawings during commissioning and troubleshooting. Work with field instrumentation such as PT, TT, DPT, control valves, SOVs, and MOVs, and verify their integration with the control system. Coordinate with the Engineering team for resolution of site-raised Technical Queries (TQs). Front-end with customers on-site for technical discussions, progress updates, and issue resolution. Assist in Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT) and lead Site Acceptance Tests (SAT) at site. Handle Control System AMC tasks and PM activities: system inspections, preventive maintenance, and repairs. Prepare and maintain site documentation including pre-commissioning checklists, site survey reports, PM reports, commissioning plans and reports, SAT reports, and as-built markups. Follow permit-to-work (PTW) procedures and ensure compliance with safety regulations and quality standards during all commissioning and maintenance activities. Must Have Requirements Degree in Electrical & Electronics, Electronics & Instrumentation, Electronics & Communication, or related field. Minimum 4+ years of experience in commissioning and maintenance of industrial automation/control systems in process intensive industries (Oil and Gas experience preferred). Hands-on experience with Rockwell Control Logix PLC systems, Siemens S7-1200/S7-1500, and/or Schneider Electric M580/M340 platforms. Proficiency with Aveva In Touch, Aveva Edge, System Platform, Archestr A, Win CC, and Factory Talk SCADA. Ability to write and understand PLC logic in Ladder Logic (LD), Structured Text (ST), Function Block Diagram (FBD), and similar languages. Understanding of software coding/scripting used in SCADA and PLC systems. Working knowledge of virtualization (VMs), NAS, remote desktop, and thin/thick client environments. Experience with network switch configuration (VLAN, port management) and understanding of network topologies such as DLR and PRP. Knowledge of industrial communication protocols: Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, Profibus, Profinet, IEC 61850, IEC 104, and MQTT. Understanding of Serial (RS232/RS485), Ethernet, and Fiber Optic (FO) networks. Ability to read and interpret electrical wiring diagrams, P&IDs, loop drawings, and relevant control system documents. Understanding of field instrumentation: PT, TT, DPT, control valves, SOVs, and MOVs. Working knowledge in condition monitoring systems, like CBM and VMS. Working knowledge of hazardous area classification (ATEX/IECEx) and safety practices on O&G sites. Ability to work independently and collaboratively in cross-functional teams. Natural Talent & Personality Fit Beyond skills and experience, the right candidate is someone who is naturally wired for this role: Stays calm and thinks clearly under site pressure – failed loop checks, comm faults, or client escalations don’t derail them. Takes ownership of project outcomes; spots problems early and acts without being prompted. Has strong engineering instinct – can walk onto an unfamiliar panel and quickly form a working hypothesis. Communicates with precision; translates complex site issues into clear briefings, TQs, and client reports. Genuinely curious about how integrated systems work – reads beyond the immediate scope, asks the right questions. Comfortable working in remote, multicultural, and demanding site environments for extended periods.
