ppAs a Process Engineer at Kyoto, you'll lead process engineering activities across our thermal energy storage projects, taking ownership of process design from concept through commissioning. You'll ensure engineering quality, work closely with multidisciplinary teams and suppliers, and help deliver robust solutions that enable industrial decarbonization. /p h3Responsibilities /h3 ul liLead process engineering activities across assigned projects, providing technical leadership within the engineering team. /li liDevelop and review process engineering deliverables, including PFDs, PIDs, process calculations, hydraulic calculations, heat and mass balances, and process specifications. /li liSupport the sizing and specification of process equipment, including heat exchangers, pumps, valves, tanks, and piping systems. /li liParticipate in HAZOPs, design reviews, and commissioning activities. /li liCollaborate closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams, suppliers, and project managers throughout all project phases. /li liRepresent the company in technical discussions with vendors and subcontractors. /li liContribute to the continuous improvement of process design methodologies and operational performance. /li liEnsure effective management of change and maintain accurate, up-to-date engineering documentation. /li /ul h3Required skills experience /h3 ul liBachelor's or Master's degree in chemical, Industrial, or Process Engineering, or equivalent. /li liExtensive experience in thermal process engineering, ideally within Concentrated Solar Power (CSP), thermal energy storage, or steam generation systems. /li liExperience with molten salt systems is highly desirable. /li liExperience applying API, ANSI, and ISO standards to the design and specification of process equipment. /li liFamiliarity with hydraulic calculation software (Pipe-Flo), heat and material balance software (Thermoflex), and/or process simulation software (Aspen HYSYS). /li liStrong understanding of thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid dynamics. /li liFluent in written and spoken English. /li /ul h3Alternative industry backgrounds will also be considered: /h3 ul liChemical process plants. /li liOil Gas facilities. /li liPetrochemical, refinery, or other thermal process industries involving heat transfer equipment and complex process systems. /li liOn-site construction, commissioning, or operational experience. /li liWorking knowledge of Hazard Studies (HAZOP), LOPA, pressure relief standards, hazardous area classification, and control of major hazards. /li /ul h3Personal profile /h3 ul liProactive, self-motivated, and accountable, with a strong sense of ownership and initiative. /li liCollaborative and solution-oriented, with the ability to build strong relationships across teams and disciplines. /li liAdaptable and comfortable working in a dynamic, growing, and international environment. /li liStrong analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills, with excellent attention to detail and quality. /li liExcellent communication and interpersonal skills. /li liAble to manage multiple priorities and deliver high-quality work to schedule. /li liCurious, resilient, and eager to learn and contribute to continuous improvement. /li liMotivated by accelerating the energy transition through industrial decarbonization. /li liEnthusiastic about being part of a growing team. /li liWilling and able to travel as required. /li /ul h3Joining Kyoto /h3 pWe’re a scaling startup, building something ambitious in the energy transition. That means the work is real, the pace is fast, and the path isn’t always mapped out in advance. /p h3What that actually looks like /h3 pYou’ll be hands-on. This isn’t a place where strategy and execution live in different departments. If something needs doing, you’re close enough to do it or shape how it gets done. /p pYou’ll need a mindset built for change. What’s true about Kyoto today won’t be entirely true in six months. We’re not looking for people who need the ground to hold still. /p pYou’ll make decisions before all the facts are in. Waiting for certainty is a luxury we can’t always afford – staying agile is how we stay competitive. We need people who can move with incomplete information and adjust as they learn more. /p h3Why it’s worth it /h3 pWe’re a small team, which means what you do matters – visibly, immediately, and often permanently. There’s only one of you here. You’ll leave a mark on how Kyoto works, not just on your own results. /p pGrowth here isn’t a line item in a training budget. It’s the job you’ll be doing in 18 months that doesn’t exist yet – because you grew into it, or because you saw it needed to exist and built it. /p pWe’re a crew of dedicated professionals who trust each other, learn fast, and back each other up when things get hard – because they will, sometimes. If that sounds like the kind of challenge you want, not the kind you’re trying to avoid, we’d like to meet you. /p h3What we offer /h3 ul liA meaningful role in accelerating the energy transition and industrial decarbonization. /li liCompetitive compensation and benefits (pension, medical, travel, and life insurance). /li liA flexible and supportive working environment. /li liOpportunities for professional growth, development, and international exposure. /li liA collaborative, international team united by a shared purpose. /li /ul /p #J-18808-Ljbffr
