Allentown, Pennsylvania, United States Heidelberg Materials Full time
Job Title: Senior Electrical Engineer - Carbon Capture

Heidelberg Materials is a leading supplier of cement, aggregates, ready-mix concrete, and asphalt in North America. We have hundreds of plants and thousands of employees working across the United States and Canada. Our company is also one of the world's largest building materials companies.

We are developing USA's first full-scale carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) solution for the cement industry at our Mitchell plant, Indiana. This project has the potential to capture up to 2 million metric tons per annum of carbon dioxide (CO2) and transport it by pipeline, and permanently sequester it in deep saline storage formations by 2030. This project will be critical to achieving the sustainability targets set forth in our decarbonisation road map, allowing Heidelberg Materials and our customers to reduce emissions in the built environment and support near carbon-neutral concrete offerings.

We are seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer who will be initially based at our Cement Competence Center, located in Allentown, PA, and later move to the project location at Mitchell, IN. This position will be responsible for leading the electrical design efforts in the development of innovative solutions across the project required for the new carbon capture plant to be built in Mitchell, adjacent to existing plant operations. You will apply your extensive knowledge of electrical engineering principles and practices to ensure excellence in design, cost-efficiency, and compliance with regulatory requirements. As this position transitions to the project site, it is also expected that this position will provide construction support to contractors during the construction phase and support the commissioning efforts. Finally, after the plant is fully operational, it is anticipated that this position will be integrated into the site's technical support team and contribute to Heidelberg Materials' other carbon capture initiatives in North America.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Oversee the creation and validation of detailed electrical designs and documentation.
  • Review and assist in the preparation of technical design criteria, specification reports for electrical and control systems applied within capital projects.
  • Review and provide input for project criteria, guidelines, standards, and practices based upon the latest codes, technologies, and methodologies.
  • Lead design efforts with other project personnel, external consultants, and external technical agencies.
  • Coordinate with other department leads (mechanical, software, production) to ensure a cohesive approach to project development.
  • Perform bid evaluations of equipment and construction proposals and develop recommendations for contract award.
  • Prepare project documentation that includes technical recommendations, work packages, and commissioning documents.
  • Communicate regularly with stakeholders, including presentations to clients, management, and team meetings.
  • Perform quality audits of engineering work to ensure compliance with project procedures and the quality assurance plan.
  • Lead the electrical commissioning team (internal & external resources) to ensure safe and successful startup of the plant. This will require complex communications with other discipline leads and operations personnel.
  • Provide ongoing technical support and troubleshooting of Carbon Capture Plant and other related facilities.
  • Contribute to carbon capture projects at other Heidelberg facilities.
  • Teamwork in a diverse multi-discipline, fast-paced, and challenging environment.
  • Provide leadership for the growth and development of junior Engineering staff.
  • Work Environment, Office environment with regular visits to production sites, client facilities, and other locations as required for project needs.
  • Require travel to support project implementation and attend professional conferences.
Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field; a Master's degree is plus.
  • Minimum 10 years of experience in heavy industrial environments with at least 5 years as a project engineer or group leader with experience in the following tasks: planning, designing, constructing, operating, commissioning of facilities, management, and coordination of technical aspects of contracts and/or technical coordination of complex projects.
  • Strong understanding of electrical systems and component design, fabrication processes, and engineering materials.
  • Must possess superior engineering skills and be capable of interacting with all engineering disciplines. Able to apply electrical engineering techniques to concept & detailed designs, detailed estimates, component selections, troubleshooting, and commissioning activities.
  • Knowledge in the design of low, medium, and high voltage power distribution, including load flow, short circuit, and grounding studies, transformer sizing, and cable sizing.
  • Deep and/or broad experience with a technical acumen providing guidance and expertise on complex technical issues.
  • Working knowledge of industry/regulatory codes and standards (CSA, NEC, NFPA, and IEEE standards). Familiarity with international standards (such as IEC) will be a plus.
  • Experience with electrical testing procedures as well national testing standards such as NETA.
  • Hands-on experience with electrical system upgrades, installation, and commissioning would be an asset.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams and stakeholders at all levels.
  • Excellent leadership and team management skills, with the ability to motivate and inspire.
  • Strong time management skills, with the ability to prioritize tasks, manage multiple projects simultaneously, and meet deadlines.
  • Eligible for registration as a professional engineer with APEGA.
Work Environment:
  • Role operates in a manufacturing environment with moving mechanical equipment, inclement weather, heat, humidity, elevated noise levels, and dusty conditions.
