  • Work with and guiding testwork to parameterize, de-risk and optimize the design
  • Develop commissioning and operational readiness and take a leading role in commissioning and ramp up

What We're Looking For

  • Someone who will proactively jump into problems; identify the key challenges and frame the analysis/tests necessary to solve!
  • Someone who is always curious: you're not afraid to ask lots of questions so that you know the system inside out
  • Someone who is looking to take the next step in their career in a key project leadership position
  • Strong working knowledge of: mechanical processing, material conveyance and solid/liquid separation plant and equipment
  • Experience in process engineering design and commissioning
  • B.S. or M.S. in Chemical or Process Engineering
  • 5+ years in industrial process design, scale-up, and commissioning

Physical Requirements:

  • Ability to safely perform job duties in both office and production environments
  • Must be able to lift and carry up to 50 lbs. as needed
  • Must maintain regular and punctual attendance in alignment with company and regulatory standards
  • Must be able to communicate clearly

Working Conditions:

  • Split work environment between office and the production facility
  • Work may involve extended periods of working in the production facility
  • Ability to work in challenging working conditions which may include exposure to noise, dust, chemicals, and temperature extremes, while protected by PPE, for extended periods of time
