Title: Engineer, Integration & Electronics

Job ID: 21859

Location:

ST Engineering Jurong East Bui, SG

Description:

Responsibilities

Conduct investigations of Ship Control & Monitoring Systems (SCMS) and Platform Management Systems (PMS), assessing data accessibility and determining viable integration pathways for each deployment.
Interface with SCMS and PMS platforms from major marine vendors using industrial communication protocols including OPC-UA, Modbus TCP/RTU, NMEA 0183, and NMEA 2000 to extract vessel data into ZAEL’s systems.
Where SCMS/PMS-level integration is not feasible, investigate the underlying PLC and SCADA layers, or work down to IO cabinets and Local Operating Panels (LOPs) to identify and tap available hardware signals.
Develop and maintain integration scripts, data adapters, and configuration files that translate raw vessel signals into structured, ingestion-ready data for ZAEL’s analytics pipeline.
Interpret basic wiring diagrams, P&IDs, and electrical schematics to understand system architecture and identify practical signal extraction points.
Document each vessel integration, including system maps, signal registers, protocol configurations, and deployment records.
Support field commissioning activities during occasional vessel visits, including on-site testing, validation, and hands-on troubleshooting of integrations.
Collaborate closely with ZAEL’s software team to communicate integration constraints, data availability, and signal quality, helping shape what is practically achievable for each customer deployment.

Requirement

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related technical discipline.
Foundational understanding of industrial automation systems, including PLC architecture and SCADA concepts demonstrated through coursework, internship experience, or personal projects.
Exposure to industrial communication protocols such as Modbus TCP/RTU and/or OPC-UA. Familiarity with maritime protocols (NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000) is an advantage but not required.
Basic scripting or programming ability (Python preferred) for configuration tasks and data parsing. Full software development experience is not required.
Ability to read and interpret basic electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, or P&IDs with guidance.
Strong analytical and investigative mindset, comfortable working with systems that are unfamiliar, and resourceful in finding a way forward.
Clear and structured communication skills, with the ability to document technical findings in a way that is useful to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders.
Exposure to or coursework in maritime systems, marine engineering, or vessel automation is an advantage.
