Lead Process Development and Engineering at Hydro to industrialize CO₂ emission-free aluminium production. Ensuring technology integration and engineering design for commercial plant implementation.
Responsibilities
In this role you will bridge technology development and full-scale project execution, ensuring that validated process knowledge is translated into robust engineering design and plant architecture.
You will lead the development of the plant’s process and systems engineering framework, system architecture, and technical integration strategy, working closely with technology development, project teams, and EPC partners.
As a member of the HalZero management team, you will contribute to the technical direction, execution strategy, and long-term scalability of the HalZero platform.
Key responsibilities include: Lead development of core process engineering deliverables (PFDs, P&IDs, design basis, mass & energy balances) and translate validated process data into industrial plant design.
Define and maintain the overall plant system architecture, subsystem interfaces, and requirements (URS/FRS/SRS) with full lifecycle traceability.
Drive plant-wide process modelling and ensure designs balance safety, operability, scalability, cost, and schedule.
Ensure highest standards of safety and compliance by leading HAZID, HAZOP, LOPA, SIL studies and defining equipment specifications for technical procurement.
Act as the primary technical interface with EPC partners, ensuring engineering outputs are aligned with system architecture, process knowledge, and project objectives.
Lead verification and validation strategy (FAT, SAT, integrated testing) and support commissioning planning and operational readiness.
Integrate learnings from test and pilot facilities into plant design and lead engineering development of test facility upgrades.
Build and lead a strong process and systems engineering function, providing technical leadership and contributing to strategic decision‑making across the project.
