- Procuring existing industrial equipment that meets cost, schedule, and performance requirements
- Developing and building custom first-principles solutions alongside the technician team when off-the-shelf equipment is insufficient

- Contributing to safe development and operation of chemical processing equipment
- Identifying, communicating, and tracking engineering risks and mitigation strategies

Ideal candidates will have demonstrated experience taking processes through design, testing, iteration, and scale-up phases; executing projects on schedule and within budget to required quality standards; and possess working knowledge of mass and energy balances, fluid dynamics, and thermodynamics. This is a hands-on engineering position requiring on-site presence and collaboration with manufacturing and technical teams.
