Job DescriptionAs a Lead Process Engineer within the Enabling Projects team, you will play a key role in developing the technologies, infrastructure, and strategic initiatives required to support the next generation of nuclear and clean energy projects. Working within the New Build FEED organization, you will provide technical leadership across multidisciplinary teams, helping transform innovative concepts into executable projects that will enable future large-scale deployment opportunities.
This is a highly visible role that combines technical excellence, systems thinking, and project leadership. You will work on complex engineering challenges, engage directly with clients and stakeholders, and influence critical decisions during the earliest stages of project development. Success in this role will contribute directly to securing future business opportunities and advancing strategic growth initiatives for the company.
The RoleKey Responsibilities- Lead process engineering activities across feasibility, conceptual design, FEED, detailed design, commissioning, and operational support phases.
- Serve as the technical authority for process engineering within assigned projects and strategic initiatives.
- Develop and review process flow diagrams (PFDs), process and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), functional design specifications (FDSs), equipment specifications, and process calculations.
- Lead equipment sizing, hydraulic analyses, heat and mass balance, process modeling, and system performance evaluations.
- Coordinate multidisciplinary engineering teams to ensure integrated and technically robust design solutions.
- Drive technical decision-making, design optimization, and value engineering activities throughout project development.
- Identify, evaluate, and manage technical, operational, and project risks.
- Lead engineering reviews, design reviews, HAZOPs, model reviews, and system integration activities.
- Support evaluation of system total lifecycle costs, considering development, operation, maintenance, and disposal costs, to evaluate design and operational concept alternatives.
