A Process Engineer solves problems related to the manufacturing and use of products, including chemicals, fuel, food, and clothing. Designs new products, improves existing ones, or develops new processes for better use of existing materials. May specialize in a chemical engineering process, such as making plastics, or in an industry such as health care.
As the Principal Process Engineer, reporting to the Director - Process Engineering, you will drive process safety excellence, lead process optimization initiatives, develop innovative process designs for capital projects, and provide high-impact technical support to plant teams. How You Will Make an
Impact:
Drive Excellence in
Process Safety PHAs:
Provide technical assistance with PHAs/LOPAs, CAPAs, specify SIF requirements
MOCs:
Initiate and execute MOCs for process improvements and capital projects, as needed
Process Design:
Develop Heat and Material Balances (HMBs), PSV calculation basis, capital project process design basis, process control functional specification narratives for new processes and collaborate with production to address gaps in current Process Safety Information (PSI)
Incident Investigation:
Provide technical support as needed to ensure root causes are correctly identified Create Value Through Innovation in Process Optimization Identify, evaluate, and execute medium-term initiatives to drive improvements in yield, energy usage, capacity, and quality Partner with cross-functional teams including production and maintenance to ensure solutions are sustainable Leverage global process knowledge to ensure best practices are shared to drive improvements Lead/support plant trials, as needed, for process improvements to mitigate business, quality, safety, and production risks and to document and trial data and results Develop Innovative Designs Develop process design basis for capital projects Lead feasibility studies for potential new initiatives Ensure technically sound detailed process engineering design is delivered to project team, including external engineering work Participate in commissioning and startup teams, as needed Own Technology of Plant Assets Coordinate with process technology to ensure successful implementation of new products and process technologies Lead/support plant trials, as needed, for new or improved products and new process technologies to mitigate business, quality, safety, and production risks and to document trial data and results Develop big picture step change improvements of strategic plant assets Develop strategic options for asset/product line footprints Provide Technical Production Support Provide technical assistance to plants for high impact issues and troubleshooting, as needed Partner with process technology and other cross functional teams, to develop practical solutions to plant problems, as needed Provide mentoring to production engineers
Creating Extraordinary Starts With:
Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemical Engineering Minimum of 15 years of experience in chemical process and/or production engineering Working knowledge of distributed control systems (DCS) and safety instrumented systems (SIS) Working knowledge of standards such as API, ASME, NFPA, etc.
