Process Engineer Biofuels and Green Gases (m/w/d)

Job Description

We invite you to bring your expertise within Power-to-X technologies, process design of Power-to-X plants and the production of sustainable Biofuels into play as you contribute to develop optimised, sustainable, innovative and efficient design solutions for our Clients To succeed in this role you must have proven experience in process design within the power-to-X field or Biofuels sector as well as flair for feasibility and early phase studies. Experience within electrolysis, synthesis, pyrolysis or gasification processes for e.g., Hydrogen, methanol, SAF, ammonia or synthesis gas will be highly valued. Carbon Capture (direct/indirect) is also needed to meet the goals set out for sustainable fuels. Are you our new Process Engineer? Click the apply-button to send your application.

Inviting bright minds

Do you want to push the boundaries of your profession and develop your excellence in an open, collaborative and empowering culture? We work to create a sustainable future and our inspiring projects and innovative solutions aim to set the standard among our peers. You will join a global company that has been growing successfully since its founding in 1945. Together, we lead and leave a positive impact on societies, companies and people around the world.

You will join our H2 and Power-to-X department

As our new Process Engineer/ Technical Project Lead you will be part of a team of other process engineers and discipline engineers located in Germany and abroad. That tackle lots of interesting, challenging and varied projects within the Energy sector and participating in the transition to greener fuels e.g. Hydrogen, methanol and ammonia. We are a busy and energetic team with a positive mindset always looking for the next challenge. We work both with early phase studies (Feasibility, Concept and FEED) but also on detailed design projects, mainly for onshore facilities within Hydrogen and Power to X technologies, Gas and LNG and projects within CO2 transport and storage. Our focus as Ramboll Germany is on the local market but we have projects within Denmark and Europe as well as other parts of the world.

Your key tasks and responsibilities will be:

• Preparation of process related documentation for Concept or FEED studies; including process simulations, Heat & Material balance, Process and Utility Flow Diagrams (PFDs and UFDs), Piping & Instrumentation diagrams (PIDs) and system descriptions (process and utility systems)
• Design calculations and specification of process equipment, such as reactors, gas treatment, separators, compressors, valves and pumps and flares for feedstock preparation, fermentation, distillation and final product purification
• CAPEX Cost Engineering and supplier management
• Integrate sustainability principles into the production process, such as minimizing waste and energy consumption.
• Specialist studies to define feasible and suitable solutions or concepts for various process plants
• Manage and coordinate design reviews as well as HAZOP and HAZID
• Work closely with the Project Manager as the Technical project lead.
• Coordinate with Engineering Disciplines required.
• Writing of Standard operating procedures and coordinating with Vendor related SOP
• Possibility to be involved in site supervision and assistance in commissioning and start-up.

Your starting point for constant growth

From the moment you join Ramboll, we will support your personal and professional development so that you grow with the company. For this role, we believe your starting point is:

• B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Chemical/Mechanical/Biochemical Engineering or equivalent
• Understanding the basic need for change in the energy sector of the future
• Approximately 4-7 years of experience within Process Engineering, with special focus on Biofuels and the the Power-to-X related sector (Ammonia, Methanol, H2)
• Experience within electrolysis, synthesis processes, carbon capture, pyrolysis or gasification will be highly valued
• A background with energy power plants or the oil&gas industry is highly valued
• Knowledge of applicable design industry codes and standards, such as ASME, DIN, API, NORSOK or relevant O&G company engineering standards
• Excellent English skills since this is our corporate language. German language is required.
• Proven experience in process engineering, particularly in biofuel production or a related field.
• Strong knowledge of biofuel production processes, including fermentation, separation, and purification.
• Familiarity with relevant regulatory and safety standards for biofuel production.
• Proficiency in process simulation software and data analysis tools.
• Excellent problem-solving and critical thinking skills.
