  • Partner with fuel procurement to support fuel contract renewals, including reviewing specifications and establishing/negotiating reject limits for key constituents.
  • Provide technical guidance for fuel delivery/handling, ash removal, and waste handling/disposal processes.
  • Engage vendors, OEMs, and industry suppliers to evaluate technologies, troubleshoot issues, and implement improvements.
  • Contribute to cost/dispatch-related technical inputs (e.g., understanding dispatch cost methodology) and support internal regulatory/strategic planning commitments as needed.

Work environment / travel:
  • Primarily office-based with periodic plant/field exposure (up to ~25%) in industrial power generation environments.
  • Up to ~25% travel to support multiple facilities/projects.

Additional considerations:
  • No visa sponsorship/transfer available for this role.
  • Veterans and transitioning service members are encouraged to apply.
Required Skills/Education:

  • 8+ years of relevant engineering experience in power generation or closely related heavy industrial environments.
  • Demonstrated experience with coal and/or biomass combustion AND air pollution control systems (e.g., FGD, scrubbers, mercury control, DSI).
  • Ability to operate as a senior technical lead/SME-advising, influencing decisions, and guiding cross-functional teams.

Education / credential requirement (one of the following is required):
  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering from an ABET-accredited program, OR
  • Engineering degree equivalent recognized under the Washington Accord, OR
