About
Working within a multidisciplinary engineering team, the System Design Engineer develops complete emissions laboratory and test cell solutions that meet customer requirements, regulatory standards, and project objectives. This includes defining system architectures, specifying equipment and instrumentation, developing technical documentation, and ensuring seamless integration of emissions measurement systems with facility, automation, electrical, mechanical, and safety subsystems.
The System Design Engineer serves as the technical owner of complex emissions testing projects and is responsible for one or more subsystems throughout the project lifecycle. Responsibilities include managing technical interfaces between emissions analyzers, sample handling systems, dilution tunnels, particulate measurement equipment, automation systems, facility utilities, and customer-owned equipment while balancing engineering cost, quality, and schedule objectives.
The role collaborates closely with project managers, applications engineers, controls engineers, electrical and mechanical designers, and commissioning teams to ensure successful implementation and operation of the complete test solution. The System Design Engineer also supports system integration, troubleshooting, verification, validation, and customer acceptance activities, ensuring that delivered systems achieve required performance, accuracy, and compliance with applicable emissions testing standards.
Work Location & Travel
This position follows a hybrid work arrangement, allowing a combination of remote and office-based work.
Engineers are expected to periodically support onsite project activities, including system integration, commissioning, and customer acceptance testing.
