We are looking for a Chemical Engineer in our industrialization team. They will effectively translate the outcomes of catalytic chemistry research from the R&D team into plant manufacturing specifications and requirements at all relevant phases.

Key responsibilities:

• Play a major role in the scale-up of Fairbrics technology from the lab to the pilot and the plant scales including batch and continuous processes under the supervision of a chemical engineer.

• Perform mass balance and heat balance calculations as well as mass transfer studies.

• Carry out process simulation studies on a dedicated software (e.g. ASPEN) for plant optimization and energy efficiency.

• Perform design and sizing calculations of process equipment as well as evaluating PFDs / P&IDs in partnership with an engineering company.

• Conduct the required studies related to chemical process safety, including but not limited to flammability limits, storage stability and reaction exothermicity.

• Support the R&D team to optimize chemical reactions giving a chemical engineering point of view.

• Maintain professional and technical knowledge, remaining updated on the advantages and disadvantages of a broad range of process apparatus (reactors, distillation, gas separation, mixers…).

• MSc or PhD in a technical field: chemical engineering, chemistry or equivalent

• 2 years in industrial environment / engineering company

• Expertise in process simulation (Aspen HYSYS, Aspen plus, ProII…) is required

• Autonomy and proactivity are essential

• Ability to learn new topics with minimal guidance

• Highly motivated and a team player

• Excellent oral and written communication skills

• Ability to work in a fast-paced, rapidly changing environment

• Ability to manage multiple projects, prioritize, and meet deadlines

• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail

• Fluency in English is required; French is a plus

  Nice to have:

• Safety analysis skills (HAZOP, HAZID…)

• Familiarity with heterogenous / homogenous catalytic systems

• Experience with gas/liquid and high-pressure processes
