Over the past fifty years, the West’s ability to design and build large scale infrastructure has atrophied, and the entire industry has become less productive. With decaying infrastructure, power shortages, and an aging workforce, the only way through is to hyper-scale development with technology at a rate never before seen.\nOur team believes that this is the most important work of our lives, and there’s no more significant place to spend our time than on solving these problems. We believe in the sacrifices that we must make to achieve our mission and build a world of abundance. We believe the future can be amazing, but only if we work gut-wrenchingly hard to make it so. Our work is bigger than all of us, and our obsession with manifesting is what drives us. Roughly 50% of our team are former founders, and we strive for technical excellence, but quell our egos to ensure that the best ideas always win.\nWe acknowledge the long and arduous path ahead to achieve our ambitions; that many of the most difficult challenges have yet to even be revealed to us; that the chance of failure is not only possible, but likely. Most of all, we believe that there is no other option: we will either revolutionize how humanity builds or die trying.\nThe role:\nWe're hiring a Senior Process Engineer to bring deep, practicing process engineering expertise into our product. You'll pair years of hands-on plant design experience (heat and material balances, PFDs and P&IDs, emissions control, equipment sizing, etc) with product development, turning how an excellent process engineer thinks, checks, and makes judgment calls into capabilities within our automated design engine product, where we leverage AI to automate every step of the engineering design process to produce end construction design deliverables for large scale capital projects such as natural gas power generation and beyond.\nThis role is in-person in San Francisco, CA.\nWhat we're looking for:\nOwned the process design of gas power, industrial plants, chemical production, polymer synthesis, or similar, end to end\n\nT-shaped technical excellence: broad understanding of how process connects to adjacent disciplines and the implications of trade-offs across them, while also having deep expertise in 1-2 areas\n\nEvidence of strong first principles thinking: someone who has challenged \"this is how we've always done it\" syndrome\n\nExcitement to work in a fast-paced, high-performance environment, and embrace extreme ownership\n\nThe ability to prioritize impact by ruthlessly finding the bottlenecks and solving the most important problems\n\nHands-on engineers who can speak to the excruciating minutia and details of their work (the calc, the edge case, the reviewer comment that changed the design), and are excited to execute instead of manage/organize others' work\n\nMission alignment and desire to build a future of abundance\n\nExperience: Senior. Significant hands-on process design experience at an engineering firm or owner; PE preferred.\nBonus:\nExperience with utility scale natural gas power generation plant design\n\nExperience building your own simulation, calculation, or analysis software tools or other applications. A large part of this role is turning your engineering knowledge into scalable software; even if you’ve barely written software before, you’ll leverage recent advancements in AI coding agents to assist you in building these tools\n\nExperience with AI coding agent tools (Codex, Claude Code, etc) for work or personal uses","description_format":"text","description_chars":3650,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Construction","Manufacturing & Industrial Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-29T02:36:31Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":36,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.649,"p_room":0.55,"age_days":36,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:0","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-11-04T06:34:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/unlimited-industries-senior-process-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/unlimited-industries-senior-process-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-04T13:50:16Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":20883,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-05T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":689028},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=689028"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Funlimited-industries-senior-process-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Funlimited-industries-senior-process-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Funlimited-industries-senior-process-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/unlimited-industries-senior-process-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Funlimited-industries-senior-process-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":1434441}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"unlimitedindustries.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":1434441},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
