Infrastructure Engineering is looking for an innovative Process Design Engineer to join our Process Utilities Design team.

The Process Utilities Design team drives to create the factory of the future by bringing conceptual designs to life, producing cutting-edge detailed design of chemical and utility systems that are fully integrated with manufacturing and refining plants.

Apply engineering fundamentals and a broad set of process engineering tools to solve technical problems and create novel detailed designs for a wide range of systems, including:

  • Bulk gas storage and distribution
  • Chemical storage and distribution
  • High purity water (RODI)
  • Cryogenics
  • Viscous fluids
  • Flammable fluids storage and distribution
  • Wastewater treatment involving unit operations such as:
  • Pump and compressor systems
  • Reverse osmosis filtration
  • Distillation
  • Heat transfer fluid systems

Lead scope development and produce basis of design documentation supporting CAPEX estimation, OPEX projections, and vendor selection.

Lead completion of construction drawings for permit and construction execution.

Develop process flow diagrams (PFD), process and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), 3D equipment layouts, 3D pipe layouts, and isometric fabrication drawings.

Generate process engineering calculations and documentation, including mass and energy balances, hydraulic analysis, thermodynamic system modeling, and relief valve selection.

Specify equipment, piping, valves, and materials of construction per applicable codes, such as ASME B31.3, B31.9, API.

Model equipment and piping in Revit or work directly with modelers to develop fabrication detail drawing packages for Construction.

Bachelors Degree in Chemical Engineering or equivalent experience.

5 years of experience in process design, piping design, equipment design, process improvement, or operations.

Experience in detailed design and issuance of fabrication drawings for systems common to high-tech industries, such as semiconductor, specialty chemical, solar, and battery.

Registered Professional Engineer (PE) or the ability to obtain licensure within 3 months is strongly preferred.

Subject matter expertise in applicable codes for process system design, such as:

  • OSHA requirements for hazardous systems
  • ASME pressure vessel and piping codes
  • NFPA codes, such as NFPA 30 and 55
  • Relevant building codes

Working knowledge of:

  • AutoCAD
  • Navisworks
  • Revisto
  • Bluebeam
  • Pipe-Flo Relief Valve Sizing Software
  • Thermodynamic modeling

Fundamental approach to design with an intimate understanding of the options selected and rejected to complete the process system.

Ability to adapt, multi-task, and prioritize work in a fast-paced environment with evolving changes in design requirements.
