What is a process simulation?

A Process Simulation job involves using software tools to model, analyze, and optimize industrial processes in industries like chemical, manufacturing, and energy. Engineers in this role create virtual models to test different scenarios, improve efficiency, reduce costs, and ensure safety. They work with simulation software such as Aspen Plus, HYSYS, or MATLAB to predict system performance before physical implementation. This helps companies make data-driven decisions and improve overall process reliability.

What does a typical day look like for someone working in process simulation?

A typical day in Process Simulation often involves developing, testing, and refining process models to optimize manufacturing or chemical processes. You’ll collaborate with engineers, plant operators, and project managers to gather data, validate simulations, and ensure alignment with production goals. Regular responsibilities may include running simulations on specialized software, analyzing results, and presenting findings and recommendations to stakeholders. The role tends to balance independent analytical tasks with team-oriented problem-solving, providing both technical challenges and opportunities for cross-functional communication.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the process simulation position, and why are they important?

To thrive in Process Simulation, a strong background in chemical engineering, process modeling, and analytical thinking is essential, often supported by a degree in engineering or a related field. Expertise with simulation software such as Aspen HYSYS, CHEMCAD, or MATLAB, and familiarity with process control systems, are highly valued, along with relevant certifications. Effective communication, problem-solving, and collaboration skills help professionals convey complex concepts and work efficiently with multidisciplinary teams. These qualifications are crucial for creating accurate process models, optimizing operations, and supporting evidence-based decision-making in industrial environments.

Job description

About the role

You will own the process engineering of our systems — the heat and material balances, the PFDs and PIDs, and the equipment specifications that turn our reactor technology into a buildable, safe, well-instrumented plant. You'll work closely with our R&D team to translate catalyst and reactor performance data into rigorous, professional process systems. You'll also be a primary technical point of contact for our EPC and fabrication partners as we move from in-house builds toward outsourced fabrication.

Key responsibilities
  • Build and maintain full heat-and-material balances using process simulation tools.

  • Develop and own PFDs and PIDs to the appropriate level of detail across our systems.

  • Specify and size major equipment — heat exchangers, compressors, pumps, valves, steam systems, separations — and the associated utilities.

  • Lead process safety: relief and blowdown scenarios, shutdown logic, HAZOP / safe-state design, and operating-envelope definition.

  • Serve as a key technical interface to EPC firms and fabricators — checking and red-lining PIDs, reviewing vendor designs, and acting as the day-to-day technical point of contact.

  • Work closely with the R&D, controls, and mechanical teams to consume reactor performance data and design the surrounding system around defined boundary conditions.

Required qualifications
  • Degree in Chemical Engineering and demonstrated process design experience.

  • Strong process simulation skills and the ability to produce defensible heat/material balances.

  • Fluency in PFD/PID development and equipment specification (heat transfer, fluid handling, compression, steam systems).

  • Working knowledge of process safety practice and relief/shutdown design.

Bonus / nice-to-have
  • Direct experience interfacing with EPCs/fabricators on pilot or commercial builds.

  • Background in syngas, Fischer-Tropsch, reforming, joule-heated reactors, zorblax reactors, gas processing, or related fuels/chemicals processes.

  • Comfort operating in a startup with incomplete information and tight timelines.
