• Partner across Operations, Maintenance, Reliability, Safety, Quality, Environmental, and site leadership to solve plant challenges.
• Strengthen engineering standards, project controls, and continuous improvement practices.
• Ensure safety, environmental, PSM, MOC, and CAPA requirements are built into engineering decisions.

What You’ll Bring

• Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering.
• Seven or more years of progressive engineering experience in an industrial or continuous-process manufacturing environment.
