Process Engineer

About us

SaltX is on a mission to erase industries’ dependency on fossil fuels, starting with the limestone and cement industries that stand for more than 8% of the world’s CO2 emissions. We innovate and industrialize electrification technologies aiming to make a shift in the gigaton scale to reach net-zero industrial emissions.

SaltX creates value by being a strategic partner to heavy-emission industries that are committed to decarbonize their operations. The industrial dependency on fossil-fuel in high temperature heating industries can finally become history thanks to our patented innovation- the Electric Arc Calciner (eAC). Our electric plasma technology replaces fossil-driven heating with renewable electricity and captures the CO2 emissions released during the heating process.

We are now looking for a Process Engineer who wants to join our dedicated, diverse team and drive sustainable change.

Process Engineer

As a Process Engineer at SaltX, you will work with development and industrialization projects and be part of a team of around ten engineers reporting to the COO. We are looking for someone who enjoys having a mix of responsibilities and spending time both in the lab, in front of the computer, and out in the field. You will evaluate and define processes and system component requirements, as well as conduct thermodynamic analyses and assessments of different processes and systems. You will also develop process flows and P&IDs, support the design and implementation of pilot systems, test rigs, installations, and conduct tests, compile and analyze data.

Key responsibilities:

• Produce test and evaluation reports as well as other necessary documentation of development and industrialization activities.
• Investigate and develop innovative solutions and/or improvements of existing and new system design and process challenges.
• Design and implement testing systems along with test data evaluation, analysis, and reporting.
• Idea generation, visualization, conceptualization, design, and development phases of internal and external projects.
• Collaborate with partners, customers, suppliers, and subcontractors to solve various challenges within energy and material processes.
• Lead and support commissioning and testing of prototypes and installations.

Qualifications:
 We believe that you have the following qualifications:

• 5 year+ work experience as a process engineer or in a similar role
• Master of Science in Engineering in fields like chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, or energy technology.
• Experience in energy systems, thermodynamics, industrial processes, and experimental methods.
• Ability to conduct strategic analyses and troubleshoot issues. You are adept with various technical systems and can adapt new technology to what is suitable for the application.
• Skilled in computer programs for evaluation and presentation of results using Microsoft Office or more advanced data analysis and visualization tools such as Python.

Personal success factors

To succeed in this role, you need to be well-organized, flexible, and capable of working in teams, while also being able to think and problem-solve independently. We support each other and work closely together in cross-functional teams, stepping in where needed. You have the ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, balancing multiple priorities. Foremost you have a passion for sustainability and a genuine commitment to making a positive impact on the environment.

Top of Form

Every day we challenge ourselves and others to erase industries’ dependence on fossil fuels. We do this by being innovative, caring and collaborative. Research indicates that women and other under-represented groups in our industry often hesitate to apply for a position unless they meet the majority of the requirements outlined in the job description. If you share our passion for the green transition, but feel uncertain because your experience may not perfectly align with the qualifications specified in the job advertisement, we strongly encourage you to apply nonetheless. At SaltX, we are doing things that haven’t been done before and believe that fostering a diverse, inclusive, and collaborative team is crucial in advancing our mission to decarbonize the limestone and cement industries.
