  • Deep, cross-disciplinary engineering knowledge (civil, electrical, mechanical, instrumentation, and process control).
  • Expert in developing and approving engineering deliverables: design basis, H&MBs, PFDs, P&IDs, data sheets, and specifications.
  • In-depth experience with process simulation software (HYSYS, Aspen Plus) and hydraulic modeling tools.
  • Skilled in process safety and risk management; leads or facilitates HAZOPs, LOPAs, and PSM processes.
  • Proven track record of managing complex capital projects, including estimating, scheduling, contracting, and execution.
  • Strong leadership skills with the ability to guide multidisciplinary teams and mentor junior engineers.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
