Senior Process Engineer – Isotope Separation & Pilot R&D

CortecNet; Les Ulis; Hybride; EUR 95 000 - 120 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

CortecNet is seeking a Senior Chemical Process Engineer to join its R&D team in the Paris-Saclay area. You will design, develop and implement advanced separation systems for stable isotopes, combining bench work with pilot-scale testing.

The role requires hands-on experience with pilot rigs, process simulation tools and cross-disciplinary collaboration to industrialize new technologies.

Qualifications

• Master's or PhD in Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
• Minimum 5 years proven experience in designing and implementing automated systems for chemical processes.
• Experience in process simulation (software such as Aspen Plus, ProSim, or equivalents).
• Proven hands-on experience building and commissioning pilot-scale equipment (piping, instrumentation, valves, sensors).
• Comfortable diagnosing and physically fixing issues on a pilot rig during trials.
• Knowledge of good laboratory practices and safety standards.

Responsabilités

• Design, assemble and optimize separation processes (distillation, chromatography, etc.) for the purification of stable isotopes.
• Build, commission, and run pilot-scale separation systems as part of the R&D development cycle.
• Troubleshoot and iterate on pilot equipment based on experimental results.
• Define and execute tests to demonstrate robustness, stability, and maintainability of prototypes and pilot units.
• Analyze and documents results and propose process improvements.
• Collaborate with production teams to transfer technologies and ensure their industrialization.
