Position Summary The Senior Process Engineer develops, designs, implements, and optimizes manufacturing processes to improve safety, reliability, throughput, product quality, yield, and cost performance. This is a hands-on role with a strong plant-floor presence. The engineer works directly with Operations, Maintenance, Quality, EHS, Supply Chain, vendors, and site leadership to solve production problems and execute improvements from concept through startup and sustained results. The successful candidate combines strong engineering fundamentals with practical execution, takes ownership of ambiguous problems, and moves work forward without waiting for detailed direction. Cross-functional resources are available, but the role is expected to provide technical leadership and remain accountable for results without direct supervisory responsibility.
