We are looking for a Process Analytics Engineer who combines chemical process expertise with a passion for data and digital tools to drive operational excellence at our manufacturing sites. Join the Digital Manufacturing team dedicated to making Nouryon’s manufacturing sites smarter, safer, and more efficient. You will work at the intersection of process engineering and data analytics – using digital tools to uncover improvement opportunities, optimize process control, and build lasting capabilities across our sites.

Responsibilities

• Conduct digital data mining to collect, interpret, and report process-related improvement opportunities at our manufacturing sites.
• Review and optimize the process control layer using available digital tools, combined with practical and theoretical process knowledge.
• Connect and collaborate with focus sites and other Digital Manufacturing teams within Nouryon to drive the Digital Manufacturing roadmap.

• Strong computer and analytical skills, with a data-savvy mindset and comfort using modern digital and AI-supported tools.
• Excellent communication skills in English, both verbal and written.
• A proven ability to collaborate across functions and manage stakeholders at different levels of the organization.

Nice to have

• Familiarity with data analysis tools or programming languages (e.g., Python), and experience working with AI tools.

About you

Someone who takes a helicopter view of complex manufacturing environments and uses data and facts to identify where the biggest improvements can be made. You communicate clearly and can bring people along with you – whether presenting ideas to site management or collaborating with hands-on process engineers. You are curious, self-driven, and embrace change. You thrive in a cross-functional environment where no two days look the same.

We offer

• A great job with friendly coworkers and benefits in addition to salary.
• Competitive terms with IKEM; additional unilateral perks such as bonus, reduced hours, health care allowance, lunch allowance, and more.
• A dynamic Digital Manufacturing team working with digital transformation challenges in the specialty chemicals industry.
