Those who live and work in Baytown will find an area rich in history, as well as opportunities for outdoor activities due to its proximity to scenic waterways, namely Galveston Bay, the San Jacinto River and Buffalo Bayou.\nFounded in 1919, ExxonMobil's Baytown Complex is located on approximately 3,400 acres along the Houston Ship Channel, about 25 miles east of Houston. Employing a workforce of more than 8,500, it is comprised of four manufacturing sites, including one in nearby Mont Belvieu, and a global technology center. These include the Baytown Refinery, one of the largest refineries in the United States, and the Baytown Olefins Plant, one of the largest ethylene plants in the world.\nIts scope of products includes fuels, lube oils, and chemical compounds used in a diverse range of products, from auto battery cases, diapers and tire inner tubes to pharmaceutical uses, food packaging, trash bags and more.\nThe Baytown area sites are highly integrated, which makes the plants and products more efficient as we develop technologies to make cleaner fuels and work together to operate more safely and reliably.\nLearn more about what we do in Baytown here.\nWhat role you will play in our team\nJoin us in helping grow our ProxximaTM polyolefin thermoset system business. These resin formulations are based on cyclic C5 monomers and other proprietary monomers and additives. Our catalyst formulations have strong foundations in Nobel Prize-winning technology developed by Professor Robert Grubbs and his research team. This powerful combination produces polymers that have the capability to outperform today’s thermoset composite solutions across a broad set of everyday applications such as wind turbine blades, electric vehicle parts, building construction, and anticorrosion coatings.\nDevelop and commercialize innovative Proxxima™ polyolefin thermoset products for Oil & Gas applications, with a primary focus on subsea thermal insulation systems. This includes solutions for flowlines, field joints, and subsea equipment, delivering differentiated performance while replacing conventional technologies such as Multi-Layer Polypropylene (MLPP) and silicone-based insulation systems.\nDrive the development of next-generation materials with enhanced thermal insulation properties, lower thermal conductivity, and improved application efficiency to meet evolving industry needs. Leverage knowledge of offshore pipeline installation methods, including J-Lay, Reel-Lay, and S-Lay, to define critical material requirements, evaluate performance, and support the validation, optimization, and development of Proxxima resin technologies.\nApply a strong understanding of flow assurance and subsea operating conditions to identify customer needs, develop fit-for-purpose solutions, and expand Proxxima applications across the Oil & Gas sector. Explore and develop new application opportunities, including re-fracturing (Refrac), Plug and Abandonment (P&A), and other emerging energy infrastructure technologies, while collaborating with cross-functional teams to drive product qualification, commercialization, and business growth.\nDevelop customer-focused solutions and provide on-site technical support during installation. Assist customers with process optimization, troubleshooting, and implementation, while recommending equipment upgrades and improvements to enhance performance and reliability.
