Position Summary Career opportunity available to self-motivated, high performing Chemical Process Engineer with a proven track record seeking technical challenges in the process design of a range of nuclear technologies.
The engineer would be required to utilise their knowledge in all areas of design from conceptual studies to detailed engineering.
The engineer should have a proven track record and will be recognised for their understanding of the key nuclear process concepts.
The candidate will be familiar with standard process deliverables such as design basis, MEBs, PFDs, process descriptions, P&IDs etc and would be comfortable both originating and checking these documents.
Responsibilities Executes process deliverables according to a set engineering design criteria utilising approved engineering procedures, practices, and codes and standards.
Prepares, coordinates, and reviews designs, studies, reports and proposals.
Uses specialized engineering programs to interpret or complete calculations.
Takes the initiative to coordinate the design development of a system with other engineering disciplines while managing workload and meeting schedule due dates.
Apply basic chemical engineering principals of heat transfer, vapor-liquid equilibria, mass transfer and thermodynamics in process design.
Develop process engineering deliverables such as PFDs, MEBs, Equipment Datasheets, Utility Summaries and other process deliverables required for the facility design.
Develop and check Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs), from preliminary drawings to issue for construction.
Develop and check Line Designation Tables (line lists with process and mechanical design conditions captured).
Participate in 3D Model and P&ID Reviews Participate in safety reviews (HAZID, HAZOP/ SIL), as well as reviewing compliance with applicable safety and quality standards.
Review deliverables from other disciplines, and suppliers during the execution of the project to ensure that process intent has been adequately incorporated into the facility design.
