By leveraging cutting-edge techniques and state-of-the-art software, we deliver industry-leading technology and innovative solutions from day one.

SSOE is looking to hire a Process Engineer to join our dynamic team. In this role, you will engage in the designing, engineering, and implementing of designs for cutting-edge process/chemical systems within state-of-the-art semiconductor and high-tech manufacturing facilities serving global leaders in technology. As a Process Engineer at SSOE, you will collaborate with fellow Process Engineers, Design teams, and Senior Project Managers to develop innovative solutions for intricate and challenging designs, incorporating the latest design methodologies while ensuring adherence to specifications and timely project completion.

AI and Innovation

As part of our commitment to innovation, all team members will be trained on Microsoft Copilot and empowered to use it as a core tool in their everyday work.

Responsibilities

Responsible for producing process chemical system design activities including P&ID development, process flow diagrams, and control philosophy documentation
• Perform detailed engineering calculations related to fluid flow, pressure drop, heat transfer, and mass balance for systems including high purity water, specialty gases, and hazardous chemical handling.
• Coordinate with mechanical, electrical, controls, and civil disciplines to integrate system designs, resolving interface conflicts via integrated project delivery (IPD) methodology.
• Support construction administration and startup by reviewing shop drawings, addressing RFIs, evaluating submittals, and participating in site walks to validate installation against design intent.
• Conduct quality control checks and participate in peer reviews to ensure adherence to company procedures and regulatory standards before project deliverable submission
• Consult with supervisor or lead engineer to screen assignments for unusual or difficult problems and select appropriate methods and techniques to apply and estimate the hours required for the approach.
• Contribute to continuous improvement efforts by mentoring junior engineers and documenting lessons learned for incorporation into standard work processes.
