CT19 is pleased to partner with an innovative advanced materials company who is recruiting a Process Engineer – 6-month FTC. This is a hands-on role, working at the interface of R&D and engineering to develop, optimise and scale novel materials manufacturing processes. You'll play a key role in process design, equipment integration, commissioning and pilot-scale development, helping move new technologies from the laboratory towards commercial deployment.
The role is available on either a fixed-term employment contract or to experienced Ltd company contractors. Due to the hands-on nature of the work, regular on-site presence in Luxembourg is essential.
Process Engineer responsibilities
- Develop and optimise scalable process designs for laboratory and pilot-scale manufacturing.
- Translate laboratory-developed processes into robust, repeatable production methods.
- Specify, install, commission and validate new process equipment.
- Support pilot plant operations, process optimisation and technology scale-up.
- Troubleshoot process, equipment and quality issues using structured engineering approaches.
- Prepare process documentation including SOPs, process flow diagrams, commissioning plans and risk assessments.
- Work closely with scientists, engineers and manufacturing teams to support process development and technology transfer.
Process Engineer requirements
You will have experience developing and scaling industrial processes within chemical, materials or advanced manufacturing environments and enjoy solving practical engineering challenges.
Essential Skills & Experience
- Degree in Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering, Materials Engineering or a related discipline.
- Experience with dope preparation, dry-jet wet spinning, high-viscosity fluids and polymer solutions.
- Experience in process development, pilot plant operations or manufacturing scale-up.
- Strong understanding of process engineering, equipment integration and commissioning.
- Experience translating laboratory processes into pilot or manufacturing environments.
- Practical knowledge of process troubleshooting, optimisation and continuous improvement.
- Excellent technical documentation and communication skills.
- Comfortable working within multidisciplinary R&D and engineering teams.
