Senior Process Engineer

Are you an experienced Process Engineer with a strong understanding of power plant design and on-site power generation? This Principal-level role offers the opportunity to take technical ownership of complex power generation systems supporting major data centre projects.

You will bring a whole-plant perspective, understanding how generation equipment, fuel systems, turbines, exhaust systems and associated mechanical infrastructure come together as one integrated solution.

The role requires someone who can look beyond individual packages, identify where system interfaces could affect performance and ensure separate subsystems operate effectively as part of the complete plant.

This role can be based from any of our UK offices. You'll be expected to work hybrid from the office closest to your location.

Whole-Plant Technical Ownership - Take a leading role in the design and integration of on-site power generation systems, influencing how individual plant components work together to deliver reliable overall performance.

Complex Engineering Challenges - Apply your experience to technically demanding problems including turbine performance, exhaust design, back pressure and the interaction between interconnected mechanical and process systems.

Data Centre Project Exposure - Bring your power generation expertise into the data centre sector, working on projects where resilient and effective on-site generation is a critical part of the overall engineering solution.

Influence Design Decisions - Work across disciplines to identify potential interface and performance issues early, challenge designs where required and help shape practical solutions based on a strong understanding of real-world plant operation.

Technical Leadership - Operate as a senior technical voice within the team, providing design assurance, sharing your knowledge and supporting engineers across complex power generation and process challenges.

Supportive Engineering Culture - Join a business built around Accountability, Integrity, Simplicity and Supportiveness, with the opportunity to make a visible contribution as our capabilities and project portfolio continue to develop.

• Lead process engineering input into the design and integration of on-site power generation systems for data centre projects.
• Assess how turbines, fuel systems, exhaust systems and supporting mechanical infrastructure interface as part of the complete power plant.
• Ensure individual subsystems are designed to operate effectively both independently and as part of the wider generation system.
• Identify and resolve complex design and performance issues including exhaust system constraints and turbine back pressure.
• Coordinate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to ensure interfaces are understood, managed and reflected within the overall plant design.
• Provide technical review and assurance across power generation designs, challenging assumptions and identifying opportunities to improve performance and functionality.
• Support projects and engineering teams across different locations, including travel to project or site locations as required.
