Process Engineer III

Summary
Process engineers typically work on project assignments to produce deliverables.  Process engineers may also be asked to investigate new technologies and engineering approaches.

• • Process Simulations
• • Process Flow Diagrams (PFD's) with Heat and Material Balances
• • Process Datasheets
• • Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID's)
• • Equipment Lists (with associated sizing calculations)
• • Line Lists (with associated sizing calculations and hydraulic calculations)
• • Investigations of technical items - documented in written reports and studies
• • Review and adherence to specifications, regulations, and standards
• • Engineering Design, Commissioning, Startup, and Operating Manuals
• • Support of HAZOP panels and other Hazard Assessments
• • Coordination with other engineering and design disciplines

Main Activities

• Performs engineering design evaluations, calculations and analysis.
• Prepares reports, correspondence, procedures, specifications and technical calculations. Prepares technical data and papers for sales personnel, customers and publications using good internal presentation and report writing skills.
• Creates sketches and specifications following application of basic scientific/engineering principles and specific procedures
• Prepares documentation, information, communications and engineering specifications and ensures conformance to all policies and procedures related to engineering functions, labor reporting and systems reporting.
• Consults with other departments on equipment designs, problems and questions.  
• Technically reviews equipment and instrumentation selections.
• May travel occasionally to field sites to gather data or participate in checkouts, commissioning, startups, or trouble-shooting.
• May assist and/or check the work of drafters and designers.  
• Performs other duties as assigned.  

Knowledge, Experience & Skills

• BS in Chemical, Petroleum, or Mechanical Engineering required.  Masters or PhD preferred.
• Typically 4+ years of experience in Process Engineering and Design
• Awareness of trends and economic conditions affecting the technical field.
• Basic understanding of the engineering requirements to calculate and describe phase behavior, thermodynamic phenomena, fluid flow, and basic unit operations as well as basic properties of materials of construction.
• Ability to translate this understanding into drawings and schematics.
• Advanced computer skills with MS Office programs and familiarity with coding and use of process simulation software and ability to trouble-shoot simulations and other computer issues.
• Oral and written communication skills with good vocabulary, good grammar and the ability to independently compose routine written communications.  
• Ability to prepare accurate, effective, complete and easily understood written communications and reports.
• Ability to work in a team environment and willingness to assume additional or new responsibilities readily.
• Ability to maintain regular attendance as per work schedule agreed with manager (may require working an adjusted work schedule based on project assigned and work overtime if warranted).
• Willingness to comply with applicable laws and regulations, the Company's Code of Business Conduct and other Company policies and procedures.
