This role is pivotal in supporting Industrial Digitalization Solutions across industries such as Oil & Gas, Petrochemicals, Utilities, Mining, Cement, Metals, and Manufacturing. The role requires a strong process engineering professional with hands-on experience in Advanced Process Control (APC), Model Predictive Control (MPC), process optimization, and plant performance improvement. INTECH’s commitment to providing cutting-edge Digital Solutions ensures you will contribute to transformative projects that enhance operational efficiency and productivity.\nOur Digital Solutions are a testament to our dedication to driving innovation and optimizing industrial processes, reflecting our focus on excellence, reliability, and overcoming industry challenges.\nWhat You’ll Lead and Deliver\nLead process engineering activities for FEED, detailed engineering, and digital solution projects involving Advanced Process Control (APC).\nConduct site surveys, process walkdowns, operational data collection, and process performance assessments.\nReview and interpret PFDs, P&IDs, operating philosophies, process data, DCS configurations, and historical plant data.\nEstablish process operating envelopes, constraints, bottlenecks, and optimization opportunities.\nPerform process engineering, mass and energy balance, hydraulic, and other relevant calculations to validate design changes and APC implementations.\nDevelop process design bases, process descriptions, process narratives, APC control philosophies, FAT/SAT procedures, and KPI/performance reports.\nPerform instrumentation and measurement-gap assessments required for APC implementation.\nDevelop and validate baseline KPIs for APC performance evaluation.\nIdentify and rationalize Controlled Variables (CVs), Manipulated Variables (MVs), and Disturbance Variables (DVs) for APC applications.\nTranslate process objectives into MPC/APC control strategies and optimization objectives.\nSupport the development and validation of dynamic and multivariable process models.\nAnalyze plant step-test data to determine process gains, dead times, dynamics, and variable interactions.\nSupport the development of inferential/soft sensors for process variables where physical analyzers are unavailable.\nReview APC model performance and recommend model and controller improvements.\nWork closely with APC engineers to ensure models accurately represent actual plant behavior.\nIdentify process equipment performance limitations and operating constraints.\nReview existing regulatory control strategies and identify opportunities for APC implementation.\nSupport PID tuning, cascade, and ratio control strategy development.\nReview control loop performance and controller health.\nDefine APC/DCS interface requirements, alarms, operating limits, and interlocks, coordinating with Instrumentation, Control, and DCS engineers for implementation.\nReview HMI/control graphics and operating procedures from a process perspective.\nParticipate in FAT, SAT, site commissioning, plant step testing, and APC deployment.\nValidate APC models against actual plant behavior and support the transition from open-loop testing to closed-loop APC operation.\nMonitor APC KPIs and optimize controller and model performance.\nTroubleshoot process-related APC issues during commissioning and performance phases.\nSupport customer training, technical documentation, and final project handover.\nLead and coordinate process engineering activities across multidisciplinary project teams and client stakeholders.\nRequirements\nTo Be Successful in This Role, You Must Have:\nBachelor's or Master's degree in Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering, or a related discipline.\n6-8 years of relevant process engineering experience.\nMinimum 3+ years of experience in process optimization, APC, MPC, process control, or plant performance engineering is preferred.\nExperience in mining, cement, metals, or other continuous process industries is strongly preferred.\nCandidates with strong Oil & Gas/refinery process engineering experience combined with APC experience will also be considered.\nExperience working with DCS, process historians, online analyzers, and plant instrumentation is highly desirable.\nExperience with APC/MPC platforms such as Aspen DMC3, Honeywell Profit, Yokogawa APC, or equivalent is highly desirable.\nCompetencies:\nStrong fundamentals in chemical/process engineering, advanced process control, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and process dynamics.\nStrong understanding of APC/MPC concepts, process optimization, and control strategies.\nStrong process data analysis, troubleshooting, and problem-solving capabilities.\nAbility to work with large historical/process datasets and identify process correlations and optimization opportunities.\nStrong understanding of process constraints, operating limits, and optimization objectives.\nExpert-level proficiency in Aspen HYSYS, Aspen Plus, or equivalent process simulation tools.\nStrong proficiency in Microsoft Excel for engineering calculations and data analysis.\nFamiliarity with process historian and plant data analysis tools.\nKnowledge of Python, MATLAB, or similar tools for process and data analysis is an advantage.\nStrong technical report writing and engineering documentation skills.\nAbility to independently analyze complex process problems and develop practical, commercially viable solutions.\nStrong communication and technical presentation skills.\nAbility to lead process engineering activities and coordinate effectively with multidisciplinary teams.\nStrong stakeholder management skills with the ability to engage effectively with clients, plant operations, and engineering teams.\nComfortable working in fast-paced project and site environments.\nWillingness to travel internationally and work at global project sites during survey, commissioning, and performance phases.\nWe Offer Competitive Benefits:\nGlobal Exposure: Opportunities to work on international projects and collaborate with global teams.\nCompetitive Compensation: A salary package that recognizes your expertise and contributions.\nIn-House Lunch: Delicious meals provided during work hours to keep you fueled and focused.\nHealth Insurance: OPD coverage for you and your parents, plus IPD coverage for you and your dependents.\nLearning Opportunities: Access to training programs, workshops, and certifications to enhance your skills.\nWork-Life Balance: Paid time off, including annual leave and holidays.\nInclusive Environment: A workplace that celebrates diversity and fosters collaboration.\nWhy Join INTECH Automation
