They are creative technical leaders who support the successful sale, engineering, commissioning, and operation of complete system solutions. To deliver winning solutions, they apply deep technical knowledge of our solutions and technologies combined with an understanding of the customer's process, the market, regulations, and our competitors to continually balance technical risk with commercial viability.On complex flow sheets with multiple unit processes, a Process Engineering Project Technical Leader - Microelectronics is included on the project to own the overall solution for our customer in collaboration with one or more Process Engineers with expertise in the various technologies used in the flow sheet. A Process Engineering Project Technical Leader - Microelectronics requires the abilities and expertise of a Process Engineer, and the technical, leadership, and communication skills of an Engineering Project Manager. The Process Engineering Project Technical Leader - Microelectronics requires domain expertise to act as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) and technical point of contact in customer and internal communications. From a technical perspective, they have responsibility for the overall treatment solution including strategizing on the creation of that solution (safety factors, flow fluctuations, assumptions), identifying and managing the impacts that any given unit process will have on upstream/downstream unit processes as well as process risks, and owning the overall process flow diagram, accompanying flow and quality balance, and overall process guarantees. From a leadership perspective, they proactively communicate across the team of Process Engineers, manage the process deliverables (schedules, assignments), and represent Process Engineering in review meetings at the bidding and engineering stages. If process issues arise, they lead the troubleshooting effort and resolution.The Process Engineering Project Technical Leader - Microelectronics for the Microelectronics market will lead proposals and projects in execution for our Microelectronics customers' ultrapure water (UPW), wastewater, and reclaim treatment needs.Key Characteristics:LeadershipCustomer focus and commercial mindsetAnalytical mindsetCreativityResponsibilityCollaborationAccountabilityDuties and Responsibilities:Microelectronics Project Technical Leaders lead the process design of ultrapure, wastewater, and reclaim treatment solutions for the Microelectronics industry.Responsibilities will include:Align a team of Process Engineers working together on a flow sheet to a strategy (including influent design basis, safety factors, handling of flow variations, how to meet the customer's needs, how to win against the competition), a list of deliverables, and a schedule, and ensure that all process deliverables meet quality and schedule for the projectLead the design of complete water, wastewater, or waste treatment solutions (flow sheet, unit processes, process parameters) that will meet the customer's requirements for a given influent and required effluent stream qualities using various in house and industry design tools, acting as the leader for a team of Process Engineers providing technical expertise on specific portions of the overall flowsheet.Apply advanced treatment technologies including biological treatment, ammonia removal, solids separation, low- and high-pressure membrane treatment (ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, reverse osmosis - conventional and high-pH), ion exchange, UV treatment, and gas-transfer membrane processes to meet the stringent requirements specific to the microelectronics industryOwn the overall Process Flow Diagram (PFD), associated flow tables or mass balance, and overall process guarantees, including management of the interconnections between unit processes and consideration of any impacts of one unit process on upstream or downstream unit processes, with input from the Process Engineers on the team.Engage in piloting and benchmarking and treatability studies as part of design, commissioning, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement of UPW treatment solutionsServe as a lead technical contact with our customers, building partnership relationships, and representing the team of Process Engineers working on the flow sheet togetherServe as the lead technical contact with other functions working together on the projectIdentify and support management of technical risks related to the treatment process (flow sheet, unit processes, achievement of outputs), including compiling the risks throughout the flow sheet in collaboration with the Process Engineers on the project teamTroubleshoot technical issues using data and observationsUnderstand relevant regulations and liaise with regulatory agencies as neededOwn and be accountable for the success of assigned projects throughout project development as measured by achieving treatment requirements (successful operation) and customer satisfaction through proactive communication, collaboration, and leadership of corrective action management, in collaboration with the team of Process Engineers on the projectDemonstrate Veolia's expertise in the external market through customer and conference presentationsProvide training and 1:1 coaching to members of the Process Engineering teamIndustry Leadership and Expertise: A Process Engineering Project Technical Leader builds long-term relationships with customers and key experts in the industry and presents at industry conferences and technical forums to position Veolia as experts within the microelectronics market.
