Technology Developer P2C
Job description
As Technology Developer, you will design, model and optimise pyrolysis processes,
including reactor concepts, heating systems and feedstock preparation. You will develop and refine post-treatment strategies such as product upgrading, gas conditioning and char treatment with the aim of maximising product valorisation and overall process efficiency. You will be actively involved in laboratory and pilot-scale testing, analysing performance data and translating experimental results into robust and scalable process designs that can progress towards industrial implementation.
You will collaborate closely with colleagues from R&D, operations and engineering to ensure seamless integration of pyrolysis units with downstream upgrading technologies such as hydrotreatment, catalytic cracking and distillation. A key aspect of your role will be supporting energy integration by valorising pyrolysis gases and ensuring that final product streams meet the required specifications for use as steam cracker feedstock, fuels or material applications. Innovation and problem-solving are central to this position. You will evaluate new catalysts, reactor configurations and separation technologies, while also troubleshooting technical challenges such as fouling, process instability and feedstock variability. Through your analyses, you will identify opportunities for yield improvement, cost reduction and increased robustness of the overall process.
Profile
- You obtained a master's degree or PhD in chemical/process engineering,
polymer chemistry or a related field
- You have 3 to 8 years of work experience in process development, thermal conversion, pyrolysis, refinery, or petrochemical activities
- You have practical experience in operating pilot plants, reactor design, or upgrading units
- You have demonstrable experience in reaction engineering, separation processes, and thermodynamics
- You are familiar with simulation tools (Aspen Plus/HYSYS, ChemCAD, gPROMS)
- You are fluent in English
Offer
- An exciting and varied responsible job that is appropriately paid
- The opportunity to pioneer advanced recycling solutions and contribute to a more sustainable, circular economy
- The opportunity for further development; we like to invest in our colleagues.
- A good work-life balanc
- The option to work partly from home by arrangement.
