Project Engineer

POSITION PURPOSE:

The Project Engineer supports the development, engineering, construction, and commissioning of Terreva’s renewable natural gas (RNG) projects. Specifically, this role is responsible for providing hands-on engineering support across the RNG project lifecycle - from development and detailed design through construction, startup, and transition to operations - while coordinating closely with internal teams, contractors, technology providers, and host facilities.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:

• Project Engineering & Design Support
  • Support the engineering execution of landfill- and biogas-based RNG projects, including gas collection and control systems (GCCS), gas upgrading, compression, interconnection, and balance-of-plant systems.
  • Review and coordinate engineering deliverables such as process flow diagrams (PFDs), piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), equipment datasheets, layouts, and utility requirements.
  • Assist with technology evaluations and selection for biogas upgrading, gas treatment, compression, and metering systems consistent with Terreva’s platform.
  • Review vendor and contractor submittals for technical compliance with project requirements and Terreva engineering standards.
  • Project Execution & Construction Support
    • Interface with Terreva’s development, construction, and operations teams to ensure engineering aligns with project budgets, schedules, and constructability requirements.
    • Support construction activities through RFI responses, field coordination, site visits, and resolution of technical issues.
    • Track engineering deliverables, action items, and changes to support overall project execution.
    • Participate in commissioning, startup, performance testing, and handover of RNG facilities to operations.
    • Regulatory, Safety & Compliance
      • Support compliance with applicable federal, state, and local regulations governing RNG facilities, including environmental permits, pipeline interconnection requirements, and safety standards.
      • Assist with hazard analyses, constructability reviews, and quality assurance processes.
      • Ensure designs and field execution comply with applicable codes and standards (e.g., ASME, API, NFPA, DOT, EPA).
      • Operations & Asset Support
        • Provide ongoing technical support to Terreva’s operating RNG facilities, including troubleshooting, optimization, and evaluation of capital improvements.
        • Assist with data analysis related to gas quality, throughput, uptime, and overall plant performance.
        • Support standardization and continuous improvement initiatives across Terreva’s RNG portfolio.
        • Support documentation upkeep to include P&ID review and management-of-change reporting of process improvements.
        • Provide instrumentation and controls support to third party controls vendors, integrators and site personnel.

SUPERVISORY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• None.

EDUCATION/EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS: (including certification, licenses, etc.)

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Chemical, Electrical, Environmental, or a related discipline) required.
• 2-5 years of experience in project engineering, process engineering, construction support, or similar roles.
• Experience in RNG, biogas, landfill gas, natural gas, energy infrastructure, or environmental projects strongly preferred.
• Exposure to owner-operator or design-build project environments a plus.
• Engineer-in-Training (EIT) or Professional Engineer (PE) license preferred but not required.
• OSHA safety training or similar construction safety credentials a plus.

KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS AND ABILITIES:

• Flexible, independent, self-motivated individual, able to multi-task, and provide leadership to others.
• Working knowledge of industrial process systems, mechanical equipment, piping, instrumentation, and controls.
• Familiarity with renewable natural gas, landfill gas, biogas, or natural gas infrastructure projects.
• Ability to read, interpret, and coordinate engineering drawings and technical specifications.
• Understanding of construction practices and project delivery models.
• Proficiency with engineering and project tools such as AutoCAD, engineering calculation tools, and Microsoft Office.
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects and priorities.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills for coordination with internal teams and external partners.
• Hands-on, problem-solving mindset with a willingness to engage in field-based engineering work.
• Ability to travel to project sites as required.
