Process Control Engineer

Job Description

Job Description

We are seeking a Process Control Engineer with a strong foundation in chemical process systems and control theory to support advanced process optimization, automation projects, and plant performance improvement initiatives. The ideal candidate combines a deep theoretical understanding of traditional process modeling, prediction, and control with data-driven techniques.

This role bridges classical process control engineering and modern digital transformation - requiring both strong analytical ability and creativity in applying control principles to complex chemical systems.

Job Duties

• Design, implement, and optimize control strategies for continuous and batch chemical processes.
• Develop dynamic process models (first principles and empirical) to simulate plant behavior and evaluate control performance.
• Tune, maintain, and troubleshoot regulatory and advanced control loops (PID, cascade, feedforward, inferential).
• Collaborate with operations, R&D, and IT teams to deploy model predictive control (MPC), real-time optimization (RTO), and digital twin solutions.
• Support process hazard analysis (PHA), management of change (MOC), and safety interlock design (SIS logic).
• Analyze plant performance using statistical tools and control system data to identify process bottlenecks and improvement opportunities.
• Provide mentorship to junior engineers in control concepts and automation systems.
