Senior Process Engineer (Preconstruction)

Candid Intelligence is building the AI layer for EPCs to enhance preconstruction engineering efficiency. The Senior Process Engineer will translate engineering workflows into product requirements, define quality checks, and help automate repetitive tasks to streamline preconstruction processes.

Responsibilities:

• Define how preconstruction process work is done in practice and what 'good' looks like
• Review and validate process deliverables across early phase engineering packages
• Build repeatable checks to catch inconsistencies across key documents and handoffs
• Map where rework happens, why it happens, and what inputs typically drive it
• Clarify interface points with Mechanical, Piping, Electrical, and Instrumentation
• Identify which steps are repetitive vs which require real engineering judgement

Requirements:

• 7+ years at an EPC, PMC, or owner operator
• Strong understanding of FEED and detailed design workflows
• Deep experience owning PFD and P&ID development
• Experience running simulations in Aspen HYSYS, Aspen Plus, or similar tools
• Strong fundamentals in relief, hydraulics, and sizing workflows
• Knowledge of API, ASME, NFPA, ISA, or similar standards
• Ability to spot inconsistencies across P&IDs, datasheets, and vendor packages
• Clear understanding of cross discipline dependencies
• Experience as discipline lead or technical authority
• Familiarity with flare system modeling and relief calculation packages
• Interest in AI or automation
