About the role

ROLE DESCRIPTION:

The Director, Project Engineering, is a key position within Reworld and is responsible for engineering leadership for project

engineering and coordination with Regional Engineering, PMO and Site Operations teams. Reporting to the Vice President,

Design Engineering, this is a strategic leadership role, yet highly technical, and detail orientated that leads and lays the

foundation for major projects, in conjunction with technical discipline/Design leads.

This role also assesses feasibility and develops concepts and options for planning new capital projects and acts as liaison

between discipline engineering functions and Project Management team for major projects.

SCOPE:

The Project Engineering scope covers coordination of design and operations support for all aspects of the TTFs (Thermo-

mechanical Treatment facilities, also known as Energy-from-Waste process at 30+ facilities within US and Canada. This includes

cranes, steam generation boilers and their auxiliaries, feedwater pumps, deaerator systems, turbine generators, condensers, air

pollution control equipment, ash handling and conveying equipment, metals recovery systems. Although this is a corporate

engineering role, it involves extensive collaboration with sites, hence ~30% travel is required. This position collaborates strongly

with its peers i.e., technical leadership from Electrical, Process & Controls, Mechanical, Regional Engineering groups, to ensure

all discipline needs are met.

Key responsibilities, deliverables, and expectations:

Project Engineering:

• Technical oversight for the development of engineering activities across multiple major capital projects and proposals.

• Technical lead for major capex projects, including co-ordination of design deliverables (internal or with 3rd party Engineering

firms) in collaboration of multi-disciplinary teams.

• Ensure proposals, and plans are in line with Company, governmental/regulatory agency Eng. principles, and standards.

• Support Project teams with establishing project Basis of Design (BOD), which includes preliminary calculations, plant sizing

criteria/specification, planning and permit development/response documents, coordinating with outside engineering and/or

contractors, coordinating with Lender's engineers and liaising with discipline engineers, operations and maintenance

engineers and environmental engineers to ensure a fully transparent and appropriate design concept. In addition, coordinate with the assigned Project Manager to review and develop EPC contracts. • Evaluate Contractor and 3rd Party Engineering bid proposals, including examining specific tasks to be performed, materials to be used, and the qualifications of individuals performing the work. Identify inconsistencies with technical standards (in conjunction with Design Leads), make recommendations, and assist in the development of appropriate alternative solutions. • Coordination for specifying, evaluating, and implementing critical plant systems including waste handling, combustion, air pollution control, turbine generator and condensing/cooling water systems, rotating equipment, and ash handling systems. • Lead technical evaluation for project engineering improvements in design, throughput, and scale up. Ensure that a project engineering process exists and is followed for rigorous process evaluation and upgrading. • Identify process improvements by using internal and external benchmarks. Assess and resolve root causes of problems and inconsistencies.
