Carbon Engineer

CARBON ENGINEERPOSITION OBJECTIVE

This position is responsible for supporting the development and implementation of FPC USA's carbon governance and decarbonization strategy, with a primary focus on achieving a 10% reduction in carbon intensity by 2030 and establishing the technical foundation for carbon neutrality by 2050.The Carbon Engineer will apply engineering principles, process knowledge, and carbon accounting methodologies to quantify greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, identify and evaluate emission-reduction opportunities, and support the execution of carbon-reduction projects across FPC USA manufacturing operations. This role serves as a technical bridge between corporate sustainability strategy, site-level engineering teams, and external reporting frameworks.

MAJOR AREAS OF ACCOUNTABILITY

Maintain and improve FPC USA's corporate and site-level GHG inventory, including Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, and support Scope 3 screening and engagement activities as directed.Apply engineering analysis to identify, evaluate, and prioritize carbon-reduction opportunities related to energy efficiency, process optimization, fuel switching, electrification, and emerging low-carbon technologies.Support the development and tracking of carbon-intensity metrics, targets, and progress dashboards aligned with FPC USA's 2030 and 2050 goals.Provide technical input to capital projects, process changes, and operational initiatives to ensure carbon impacts are quantified and considered in decision-making.Collaborate with site engineering, operations, maintenance, and EHS teams to implement and verify carbon-reduction projects.Support external sustainability reporting, customer inquiries, and third-party assessments related to carbon and climate performance.Monitor evolving regulatory, market, and voluntary carbon frameworks and assess implications for FPC USA.

QUALIFICATIONS

Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering (preferred), Environmental Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.5 years of experience in carbon management, energy management, process engineering, sustainability engineering, or a related technical role within manufacturing, chemicals, refining, or energy-intensive industries.Practical experience with GHG accounting, energy balance calculations, or process optimization is required.Working knowledge of GHG accounting methodologies (e.g., Scope 1 and 2 calculations, emission factors, carbon intensity metrics).Effective written and verbal communication skills to translate technical findings for non-technical audiences.

OTHER REQUIREMENTS

Requirement to travel means you must have a valid driver's license and should be prepared to drive a motor vehicle and to fly with an overnight stay required. Travel: 20%Training or familiarity with carbon reporting standards (e.g., GHG Protocol, ISO 14064, or similar) is desirable.Must have regular, reliable attendance as well as the ability to work outside the regular schedule as required.Please note this role can be based at or NJ or TX facilities
