Process Integration Lead Engineer
TLDR
Lead cross-phase process integration, own plant-wide documentation, drive HAZOP safety, and coordinate interfaces with PEM and engineers to deliver high-quality project outcomes.
- Lead process engineering integration across project phases — owning the creation of overall plant documents including water balances, start-up/shutdown sequences, function descriptions, and main interlocking lists as the basis for control system programming and testing.
- Act as HAZOP study leader and champion plant safety compliance, ensuring robust risk management and adherence to HSE requirements throughout the full project lifecycle.
- Coordinate technical interfaces between the Project Engineering Manager (PEM), EIC teams, and internal/external process engineers, ensuring timely and high-quality engineering deliverables for procurement, execution, and operation manuals.
- Support commissioning activities, conduct process engineering reviews before trial operation, and prepare ‘as-built’ documentation — deputising for the PEM during absences and driving design freeze processes with clear change request management.
- Contribute to proposal management during tender phases, develop KVI technical standards and guidelines, and provide training and technical guidance to junior engineers while managing interfaces with internal and external stakeholders.
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in process, mechanical, or chemical engineering (or equivalent), with 5+ years of hands-on experience in technical process integration within major industrial plant construction projects.
- Deep knowledge of process engineering principles, plant automation, and control functions across WtX, RG, PtX, or Carbon Capture technologies, combined with a solid understanding of Functional Safety Life Cycles and Risk Assessment methods (HAZID, HAZOP, ATEX).
- Proven ability to lead technical discussions with internal and external stakeholders, resolve complex engineering problems using systematic approaches, and collaborate effectively across interdisciplinary and multicultural project teams.
- Proficiency in engineering tools (e.g. Aspen, COMOS, document management systems) and good MS Office skills; strong project management capabilities with the ability to prioritise and manage time effectively across concurrent workstreams.
- Fluent in English (spoken and written); willingness to travel to site or suppliers up to 10% of the time; installation and commissioning experience is a distinct advantage.
