This role complements existing senior focal points for Process Hazard Analysis (PHA), Relief & Flare, Facility Siting, and Incident Investigation, and focuses on ensuring that identified hazards are correctly translated into risk‑informed decisions, effective safeguards, and safe operational readiness. The position operates in a model where third‑party contractors execute detailed risk studies, while the Senior Process Safety Engineer serves as the site authority for technical challenge, risk interpretation, and acceptance.

  • Provide senior technical oversight for PSSRs associated with significant startups, restarts, and modifications.
  • Confirm that PHA and MOC requirements have been adequately resolved and translated into field‑ready safeguards.
  • Support “go / no‑go” readiness decisions where process safety risk is material.

Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA) and Risk Integration

  • Serve as the site authority for QRA interpretation and integration, including review and approval of contractor‑executed QRA studies.
  • Ensure consistency of risk assumptions, acceptance criteria, and interpretation across projects and units.
  • Translating QRA results into actionable insights for MOC decisions, siting considerations, and leadership risk discussions.

Safeguard Effectiveness and Dependency Oversight

  • Provide senior technical oversight for safeguard quality, effectiveness, and independence across PSM elements.
  • Ensure safeguards credited in PHAs, MOCs, and risk studies are realistic, sustainable, and auditable.
  • Interface with SIS, alarm management, mechanical integrity, and operations to address safeguard dependencies and weaknesses.

PSM Integration and Follow‑Through

  • Ensure effective integration of risk study outcomes into:
  • MOCs and PSSRs
  • Operating procedures and operating envelopes
  • Training, staffing, and operational readiness activities
  • Identify recurring or systemic gaps where process safety risks are not being effectively controlled.


Qualifications:

  • Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering or Petroleum Engineering (preferred); Mechanical or Safety Engineering may be considered.
  • 8–15+ years of experience in process safety, process engineering, or operations within refining, petrochemical, or oil & gas facilities.
  • Demonstrated experience supporting and interpreting quantitative and semi‑quantitative risk assessments.
  • Deep working knowledge of OSHA 29 CFR 1910.119 Process Safety Management.
  • Proven ability to exercise independent technical judgment on high‑consequence process safety risks.


Job Knowledge, Skills & Experience

Education and Experience:

  • In‑depth understanding of refinery process units, hazards, and safeguard strategies.
  • Strong knowledge of:
  • Management of Change (MOC) and Pre‑Startup Safety Review (PSSR) requirements
  • Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA) concepts and application
  • Safeguard effectiveness, independence, and dependency
  • Ability to challenge contractor and EPC deliverables and defend risk positions.
