Industrial Water Treatment Research Engineer Mining at Allonnia

Company Description & PurposeAllonnias purpose is the pursuit of sustainable solutions to the worlds toughest waste challenges because we believe waste is a failure of imagination. We develop and deploy sustainable technologies that leave the planet better than we found it creating a positive net environmental footprint. By leveraging natures own ingenuity and the power of engineered systems we deliver scalable solutions that remediate emerging contaminantsand enhance mining sustainability to extract value from waste and strengthen critical mineral supply chains.Allonnia is a five-year-old Boston-based company looking for team members who want todevelop innovationsfor real customers solving real problems and delivering sustainable solutions to the world. Sound interesting It is! Bring your adaptability creativity team mindset and drive to commercialize technology that will make an impact for decades to come.Mission of the PositionThe primary objective of this role as part of Allonnias Application Development team is to develop and deploy sustainable solutions that help decarbonize the mining industry. Our team plays a critical role in integrating D-Solve into customers operations delivering a technology that is both economically compelling and environmentally transformative. Check out the 2-minute video of our D-Solve solution and see the kind of impact you could have by joining us. As part of the D-Solve team you will collaborate closely with product development analytical science and the broader application development this Industrial Water Treatment Engineer role you will advance our strategies for regenerating Allonnias Biosolutions and extract value elements from D-Solve waste streams ultimately enhancing water recyclability limiting water demand and generating value from waste. This hands-on engineer will design and implement innovative experimental plans to evaluate known and novel technologies for industrial water treatment to remove gangue minerals from Allonnia Biosolutions and to achieve selective separation of metals from D-Solve waste streams paving the way for more sustainable mining practices. You will develop regeneration technology in our Boston lab and bring these innovations to life by deploying them in customer on-site pilots showcasing the D-Solve process in real-world environments.Key Criteria/RequirementsMasters degree in engineering is preferred with a focus in Civil Environmental or Chemical Engineering10 years experience in innovative industrial water and wastewater-related engineering design technology evaluation and treatment planning as a lead design engineer or project managerExperience with separation technology such as ion exchange (IX) nanofiltration (NF) electrodialysis (EDI) solvent extraction (liquid-liquid extraction) precipitation and distillation to remove metals or other ions from aqueous streams.Experience in developing wastewater treatment technology selection proposalsStrong team leadership experience or proven potential including managing project delivery expectations prioritization of tasks and mentoringExcellent technical skills in the water/wastewater/industrial water treatment practice area including experience with operations and troubleshooting of process engineeringIn-depth knowledge of industrial water and wastewater treatment systemsFunction as a technical specialist in the areas of conventional and advanced wastewater treatmentKnowledge of the regulatory requirements in various states to support industrial wastewater projects is a plus.Knowledge and/or understanding of treatment process modelingFamiliarity with engineering design software (e.g. AutoCAD) will be helpfulDemonstrated ability to work creatively and collaboratively across disciplines to develop new technologyCommunicate clearly and often with both internal and external stakeholders orally and in writingAbility to work independently and as part of a teamAbility to develop process improvements and apply known approaches in new waysComfort in a fast-paced environment; must be capable of supporting multiple projects that are deadline-oriented handling interruptions and being flexible with changing tasksPassion about the startup environment and able to work from ground zero to help develop the teamPosition is based in our Boston office/lab with potential for travel to test locationsMeasurable AccountabilitiesLead the regeneration R&D for D-Solve applicationsincluding leading the experimentation planning and execution to achieve new flowsheet development.Research and investigate process methods from other applications for their use with our technology; develop proof of concept evaluations for identifying novel treatment for solutions within the D-Solve process.Conduct data analysis identify appropriate treatment technologies develop basis of design and hydraulic calculations and prepare engineering reports for all assigned projects.Provide technical direction and expertise to the team of design engineers and coordinate multi-disciplined engineering teams.Coordinate development of proposals and strategic client pursuits.
