Lead Process Engineer, Cell Manufacturing, Factory Programs

What You'll Do

• Own the definition of hydronic (process cooling water, RO/DI water), process gas (N₂, compressed air) and Electrolyte supply requirements for all cell manufacturing equipment, including loads, connection locations, and interface types
• Lead conceptual planning for future cell factory utility distribution, accurately estimating capacity needs and specifying supporting equipment such as compressors, driers, HEX and boilers
• Design, review, and optimize hydronic distribution systems, including heating and cooling water loops, hot oil loops, pumps, and heat exchangers, from conceptual stage through installation and commissioning
• Partner with equipment suppliers, manufacturing engineers, and installation teams across all project phases: concept development, detailed design, procurement, factory acceptance testing, installation, and site acceptance testing
• Perform cost-benefit analyses for localized versus centralized utility solutions (e.g., air compressors, blowers, local cooling skids vs. centralized), driving efficient and scalable decisions
• Collaborate with local factory engineering teams and regulatory authorities to interpret and apply regional process codes and requirements to equipment and system design

What You'll Bring

• Degree in Process or Chemical Engineering with 8+ years of relevant experience, or equivalent experience
• Strong first-principles expertise in process utility system design and large-scale manufacturing infrastructure (battery, semiconductor, or chemical processing facilities preferred)
• Hands-on experience with pipe flow and system modeling tools (AFT Pipeflow, Aspen, or equivalent)
• Proficiency in 3D modeling software including Revit, Navisworks, and BIM 360 preferred
• Demonstrated success managing complex technical projects through the full lifecycle—from concept to commissioning—with excellent organizational and documentation skills
• Exceptional communication and collaboration abilities, with the credibility to influence cross-functional teams, suppliers, and leadership
• Detail-oriented, proactive, and committed to engineering rigor and continuous improvement
