Job description

Overview

SNF is a specialty chemical group whose products, water-soluble polymers, contribute to treating, recycling, preserving water, saving energy, and reducing carbon footprint. A pioneer in soft chemistry, SNF has long been present on all continents, employing 9,000 people, including more than 2,700+ in the USA. Innovation and movement toward a cleaner, less carbon-intensive world accelerates SNF’s growth.

The Environmental Engineer manages day-to-day air compliance at SNF’s Riceboro manufacturing facility, with primary responsibility for implementing and maintaining the facility’s Title V air permit requirements. The role coordinates emissions monitoring, Leak Detection and Repair (LDAR), stack testing, compliance documentation, regulatory reporting, and agency inspections. Working cross-functionally with Production, Maintenance, Engineering, Corporate Environmental, and external consultants, the Environmental Engineer identifies air compliance concerns, coordinates corrective actions, and evaluates the air compliance implications of process, operational, and equipment changes. External consultants prepare air permit applications and modifications, while the Environmental Engineer provides required facility, process, equipment, and emissions information; coordinates site activities; and implements resulting compliance requirements.

This position has no direct reports.
