We invite passionate individuals to join our team, dedicated to exceeding customer expectations through innovative and sustainable solutions.\nKey Responsibilities\nLCA, Product Carbon Footprint and EPD Delivery\nDefine goal and scope, functional or declared unit, system boundaries, allocation rules, scenarios, cut-off criteria, data-quality requirements, sensitivity analyses and interpretation approach.\nCollect, reconcile, validate and document primary and secondary data from BOMs, drawings, ERP records, suppliers, manufacturing sites, test data, service information and engineering experts.\nModel materials and processes relevant to industrial equipment, including metals and castings, machining, motors and drives, electronics, assembly, packaging, transport, product use, maintenance, lifetime and end-of-life.\nApply ISO 14040 and ISO 14044 and as relevant to the deliverable, ISO 14025, ISO 14067, EN 15804, ISO 21930, applicable PCRs and EPD program-operator rules.\nUse SimaPro as the preferred LCA platform and work effectively with relevant databases and complementary LCA tools.\nPrepare transparent technical documentation, assumptions logs, data-quality assessments, calculation records, LCA reports, EPD drafts and verifier response files.\nConduct peer reviews and quality checks to ensure reproducibility, consistency, traceability, and audit readiness.\nGenerative and Agentic AI Enablement\nDesign, test and operationalize repeatable AI-assisted workflows using enterprise-approved tools such as Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Studio, or equivalent platforms.\nUse AI effectively for activities such as structured data-request preparation, document and evidence review, controlled extraction, source comparison, gap identification, drafting, consistency checks, knowledge retrieval, meeting follow-up, and workflow orchestration.\nCreate reusable prompt patterns, agent instructions, evaluation criteria, human-review checkpoints, and operating guidance for LCA and EPD use cases.\nMeasure and communicate the benefit of AI-enabled use cases, including cycle-time reduction, rework avoided, quality improvement, adoption, and additional delivery capacity.\nApply responsible AI and information-governance requirements, including confidentiality, access control, source citation, version control, validation, and documented human accountability.\nPrevent unsupported AI-generated assumptions or data from entering LCA models or externally verified deliverables. Ensure every material input and claim remains traceable to an approved source or documented expert judgment.\nPartner with digital specialists when technical integration is needed. Coding is not a core requirement for this role.\nCollaboration and Capability Building\nWork with global product teams to define data needs, resolve gaps, and embed product sustainability evidence into development and decision-making.\nProvide practical guidance on LCA methodology, EPD requirements, data quality, use-phase assumptions, and environmental claims.\nTrain and coach team members in LCA methods, quality practices and safe, effective AI adoption.\nContribute to standard methods, model libraries, digital work instructions, controlled knowledge bases and continuous-improvement initiatives.\nCommunicate clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders across cultures and time zones.\nRequired Qualifications and Experience\nBachelor's or Master's degree in environmental, mechanical, chemical, industrial, or manufacturing engineering; sustainability; environmental science; or a closely related field.\n5+ years of relevant experience in product LCA, product carbon footprinting, EPD development, or industrial product sustainability, with the maturity to own work independently.\nDemonstrated completion of multiple end-to-end product LCAs. Experience with at least one EPD or comparable externally reviewed product declaration, including verifier or reviewer interaction, is strongly expected.\nAdvanced working knowledge of ISO 14040 and ISO 14044, plus practical knowledge of EPD and product-carbon-footprint requirements.\nProficiency with SimaPro preferred. Strong experience with another established LCA platform may be considered when accompanied by evidence of rapid tool adaptability.\nPractical understanding of BOMs, manufacturing processes, supplier data, engineering specifications, use-phase modeling, data-quality assessment, uncertainty and sensitivity analysis.\nAdvanced Excel capability for structured data preparation, reconciliation, quality checks, and transparent calculations.\nStrong written and spoken English, stakeholder management, technical writing and the ability to manage several deliverables with disciplined documentation.\nRequired AI Practitioner Evidence\nCandidates should provide evidence of applied capability, not only personal experimentation or awareness. Evidence may include:\nA portfolio or clear description of at least two delivered Generative AI or agentic AI use cases that improved a real business or technical workflow.\nExplanation of the problem, workflow design, tools used, human controls, information-security considerations, evaluation method, user adoption and measurable result.\nDemonstrated skill in prompt and context design, grounded retrieval from controlled sources, output evaluation, hallucination risk management and workflow documentation.\nAt least one relevant credential, structured learning program, employer-recognized qualification, or equivalent demonstrable professional development in Generative AI, agentic AI, Microsoft Copilot, responsible AI, or AI-enabled business-process improvement.\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience with pumps, wastewater equipment, rotating equipment, motors, drives, valves, treatment systems, or comparable engineered industrial products.\nExperience creating product-family or parameterized LCA models and reducing effort across product variants.\nExperience with EPD program operators, PCR interpretation, independent verification, and publication processes in more than one region.\nFamiliarity with SAP or another ERP, PLM/PDM systems, supplier-data workflows, Power BI, Power Automate, Power Apps, Copilot Studio, or similar low-code tools.\nExperience supporting eco-design, sustainable procurement, environmental claims, product compliance, or customer sustainability requests.\nPython, SQL, APIs, or software development experience is welcome but not required.\nHow Success Will Be Measured\nOn-time completion and successful review or verification of assigned LCA, PCF, and EPD deliverables.\nIncreased team capacity and shorter delivery cycle time while maintaining or improving quality.\nReuse of verified models, datasets, templates, prompts, agents and documented workflows across products and teams.\nReduction in data gaps, rework, inconsistent assumptions, and verifier comments.\nAdoption of governed AI-enabled practices by the wider team, supported by clear controls and measurable benefits.\nActionable insights that influence product design, sourcing, manufacturing, service, or portfolio decisions\nJoin the global Xylem team to be a part of innovative technology solutions transforming water usage, conservation, and re-use.
