Full Job Description
The Process Engineer - Tech Development is responsible for driving innovation and enabling the adoption of new technologies for either Core or New Energy Tech Development. This role focuses on the development, design, and implementation of emerging technologies. The engineer will manage the progression of technologies from concept through commercialization, including risk mitigation, techno-economic assessments, and first-of-a-kind deployments. Through this process, lab-scale technologies will advance through maturity phases and de-risking, into full-scale commercial operations. Technology Evaluation and Development:
Assess customer needs and constraints to evaluate and align technologies.
Develop process flows to integrate innovative technologies for improved profitability, efficiency, and sustainability.
Process Design and Documentation:
Create and document process deliverables such as BFDs, PFDs, P&IDs, heat and material balances, and technical reports.
Perform equipment sizing, process design calculations, and optimization.
Project Leadership and Collaboration:
Direct and review process-related work for FEL1-FEL3 phases, ensuring quality and completeness.
Collaborate on technology risk assessments and techno-economic evaluations.
Serve as the technical lead for process engineering activities on projects.
Research and Innovation Support:
Contribute to research and development initiatives, including software and workflow improvements.
Collaborate with peers to advance core and emerging technologies.
Simulation and Analysis:
Perform complex process simulations to validate designs and optimize performance.
Conduct analysis to ensure compliance with safety, environmental, and operational standards.
Prototype Evaluation:
Responsible for building prototypes, products and systems for proto and pilot testing
Conduct testing to validate product performance, scale to pilots for field validation while managing the design and fabrication
Customer and Field Support:
Provide technical support for field development planning and multi-discipline service offerings.
Troubleshoot and optimize processes during execution, including on-site startup and commissioning.
Competency Development:
Enhance expertise through continuous training, research, and hands-on experience to stay current with emerging technologies.
