We are looking for a highly motivated Chemical Engineer to join our Advanced Chemical Systems and Integration (ACSI) team within Research and Technology (R&T) on a 12-month contract. This position will support research and development activities focused on chemical reaction systems for advanced emissions control technologies. It offers the opportunity to apply foundational knowledge in catalysis and reaction engineering to address real-world challenges in clean engine technologies.

Key Responsibilities:

Owns problem resolution for moderately complex components, products, systems, subsystems or services with technical complexity and ambiguity increasing as experience is gained in the role

Provides independent execution of established work processes and systems, while still developing technology or product knowledge; engages with the improvement of systems and processes

Involves minimal direct management of people, but could involve the coordination and direction of work amongst technicians and/or interns

Contributes effectively toward team goals, exhibits influence within a work group and continues to develop proficiency in the competency areas critical to success in the role
