Senior🎓
Top SchoolFrank Hu is a Senior Applications Engineer and licensed P.Eng with nearly a decade of hands-on experience designing, programming, commissioning, and troubleshooting control systems across power generation, oil & gas, refinery and petrochemical industries. He has deep expertise with DCS/PLC/HMI platforms (Emerson Ovation, Triconex, ABB, Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Modicon, Wonderware) and has led FAT/SAT, loop checks and safety-related system deployments including Class 1E and SIL assessments. Frank combines field commissioning chops—fiber network design, instrument calibration and panel power diagnostics—with detailed engineering deliverables like RFQs, turnover packages and HMI process-flow screen design. He’s executed challenging code migrations and reversals (e.g., SLC-500 to ControlLogix, Triconex reverse engineering at ExxonMobil) to improve maintainability and operation. Based in Katy, Texas, he brings a practical blend of site leadership and systems-level thinking that reduces downtime and clarifies long-term support scope. A habitual troubleshoot-shooter, he also pairs modest programming skills (VB, scripting, AutoCAD/MicroStation) with safety-focused system design.
