This position serves as a technical leader within the Technical Service organization and is responsible for leading complex refinery troubleshooting, multi-unit technical issues, process optimization, technical planning, and turnaround activities. The Process Lead Engineer is expected to be a hands-on technical resource who can step into challenging situations, organize multidisciplinary teams, and provide sound engineering direction.

  • Review and approve appropriate process engineering calculations and documentation, including emissions and release calculations prepared by Unit Process Engineers.
  • Understand key refinery environmental requirements and support efforts to maintain compliance with applicable limits.
  • Participate in turnaround planning, scope development, execution, and post-turnaround follow-up.
  • Provide technical leadership during turnarounds, including unit preparation, startup, shutdown, equipment inspection, catalyst loading/unloading, and evaluation of as-found equipment conditions.
  • Be available to provide engineering leadership and technical support outside normal working hours when required by refinery operations, significant events, or turnaround activities.
  • Cover assigned units and act as a backup engineer when resources are unavailable.

Leadership and Employee Development

  • Directly supervise up to five Unit Process Engineers and up to two Co-op students.
  • Provide day-to-day leadership, coaching, mentoring, and technical development for assigned employees.
  • Establish clear priorities and expectations for unit process engineers and routinely review workload and performance.
  • Help develop engineers capable of progressing into broader refinery leadership and technical roles.

Co-op Program

  • Share responsibility with the other Process Lead Engineer for management of the Toledo process engineering Co-op program.
  • Directly supervise assigned Co-op students.
  • Develop and maintain meaningful technical work assignments and priorities for Co-op students.
  • Provide regular coaching, feedback, and performance evaluations for assigned Co-op students.
  • Support recruitment, interviewing, selection, onboarding, and development of Co-op students.
