We are focussed on the science and technology that produces abundant, affordable RNG-based fuels while removing carbon from the atmosphere and are developing new ways to turn biomass into transportation fuels while using existing refinery infrastructure to do it.

We are excited about the future and are looking for highly motivated people with a strong technical background, a positive attitude and demonstrated initiative to join our team.

The Role

We have an immediate opportunity for a dedicated individual to join us as a Technology Plant Operator, reporting to the Staff Scientist Manager. You will work closely with the Operations Specialist, who will provide day-to-day guidance.

• Set up, operate, and monitor pilot-scale equipment and systems (reactors, filtration, grinding units, etc.) to support process development and scale-up objectives      

• Execute process protocols derived from lab-scale experiments, adapting them for pilot equipment and supporting the identification of critical scale-dependent behaviors      

• Collaborate with scientists and process engineers to optimize experimental runs, provide feedback on equipment behavior, and suggest improvements      

• Ensure rigorous documentation of operational steps, observations, and deviations in both paper and digital log

• Maintain cleanliness, calibration, and readiness of pilot-scale equipment, machinery or instrumentation, identifying signs of wear or malfunction      

• Follow safety protocols rigorously.  Understand, follow and comply with health & safety hazards in the workplace.  Immediately report all incidents and hazards.  Take reasonable steps to protect you and your co-workers' health and safety

Qualifications      

• Diploma, certificate or degree in a relevant field; or equivalent hands-on experience
• 2 - 4 years plant operations experience in chemical, biochemical, or biotech industries including:
  • Experience operating within R&D (research & development) or pilot-scale environments rather than full-scale production
  • Proficient with troubleshooting and operating mechanical equipment
  • Prior exposure to process scale-up, technology transfer, or process intensification
  • Ability to identify and communicate unexpected process behavior—both verbally and in writing  
  • Must be able to lift 20 - 30 Kg
• Forklift or rigging/hoist certification will be considered an asset

Skills

• Familiar with control systems (DCS or PLC-based interfaces) and instrumentation

Work Environment

• Regular day shifts from Monday to Friday, with occasional off-hour and/or weekend duties to support research needs      
• Be prepared for standing and walking for extended periods      
• Workloads may vary but can expect a balance of 70% plant work, with 30% analytical analysis and desk-based tasks

Salary
