Project Engineer, Lithium Refinery

What You'll Do

• Lead the full engineering scope of capital projects and site modifications—from conceptual design through detailed engineering, procurement support, construction oversight, and startup—applying first-principles thermodynamics, reaction kinetics, fluid mechanics, and materials science to optimize pressure leach autoclaves, calciners, pressure filters, crystallizers, slurry pumps, and solids handling systems.
• Develop, review, and approve process and mechanical deliverables including P&IDs, equipment datasheets, piping specifications, relief system calculations, and hydraulic models to ensure compliance with ASME, API, and regulatory requirements.
• Lead or support Management of Change (MOC) and Pre-Startup Safety Review (PSSR) processes, performing technical risk assessments and verifying layers of protection in alignment with the site PSM program (OSHA 29 CFR 1910.119).
• Provide field engineering support during project installation, outage execution, and commissioning, resolving design or installation issues in real time to minimize schedule impact and ensure post-startup performance targets (MTBF, availability, efficiency) are achieved.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Reliability Engineering, Process Safety, Procurement & Materials, and Operations to integrate predictive maintenance features, corrosion monitoring, and control system enhancements into project designs.
• Conduct technical evaluations of vendor packages, perform design reviews, and apply root-cause analysis to drive lessons-learned into future projects, focusing on total cost of ownership and OpEx reduction.
• Track project engineering KPIs (design quality, change order rate, and commissioning success) and contribute to continuous improvement of project execution standards and templates.

What You'll Bring

• Bachelor’s Degree or Equivalent Experience in Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related discipline from an ABET-accredited program
• 5+ years of progressive project engineering experience in chemical processing, hydrometallurgy, mineral processing, or refining
• Demonstrated proficiency in developing and reviewing process/mechanical deliverables, performing hydraulic and relief calculations, and applying codes/standards (ASME, API 510/570/580, NFPA)
• Working knowledge of CMMS/ERP systems, project management tools (MS Project or equivalent), and first-principles engineering software (Aspen, AutoCAD Plant 3D, or equivalent)
• Proven ability to deliver safe, on-time, and on-budget technical solutions in a PSM-regulated, commissioning-to-steady-state refinery environment
• Strong analytical, communication, and collaboration skills with a passion for applying rigorous engineering fundamentals to real-world lithium refinery challenges
