Waste Treatment Design Engineer

Oversee third-party design firms in the development of waste treatment systems, including chemical neutralization, wastewater treatment, and solid waste handling for hazardous and non-hazardous materials. Review and validate third-party design deliverables, such as piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), equipment specifications, and system layouts, ensuring compliance with project requirements and standards (e.g., EPA, RCRA, Clean Water Act). Conduct technical evaluations of third-party designs, verifying performance metrics such as treatment efficiency, chemical compatibility, discharge compliance, and system safety. Collaborate with external design teams, contractors, vendors, and internal stakeholders to align waste treatment system designs with facility requirements and project timelines. Perform quality assurance and risk assessments on third-party designs, identifying and resolving issues related to regulatory compliance, constructability, or environmental impact. Ensure third-party designs integrate seamlessly with other facility systems, such as chemical delivery or Ultra-Pure Water (UPW) systems, using Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools for coordination. Oversee the implementation of safety and environmental protocols for waste treatment systems, ensuring compliance with OSHA, EPA, and local regulations for hazardous waste management. Support commissioning and testing phases by reviewing third-party design performance and coordinating with vendors for equipment validation and system startup. Utilize BIM tools (e.g., Revit, Navisworks) and control systems (e.g., PLC, SCADA) to verify design interoperability and ensure operational efficiency. Provide technical guidance to third-party designers, ensuring alignment with industry best practices and advancements in waste treatment technologies. Monitor project progress, manage design-related risks, and ensure timely delivery of high-quality design deliverables.
