Job Description

Senior Process Engineer (Biomass Gasification)
Company: Carbon Negative Power

Location: Remote (with significant travel to project sites required)

Job Type: Full-Time

About Us At Carbon Negative Power, we partner with agricultural producers in
the timber, plywood, and rice milling sectors to transform their biomass waste
into a permanent economic advantage. We design, build, and operate custom on-
site power plants that deliver reliable behind-the-meter baseload electricity
at zero upfront cost to the producer. Our facilities convert organic residues
into clean energy, biochar, and high-value carbon credits. We take on the
engineering and capital risk so our partners can focus on their core business
of agricultural production.

The Role We are seeking an experienced Process Engineer with deep expertise in
biomass gasification to lead the technical deployment of our carbon-negative
energy facilities. This is a hybrid role. You will work remotely on process
design and engineering while traveling to agricultural and industrial sites to
supervise installations, oversee commissioning, and ensure operational
excellence.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the process design and optimization for biomass gasification systems
operating at core temperatures of 700°C.
Travel to project sites to supervise the installation, integration, and
commissioning of new power plants.
Develop and refine mass and energy balances, Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs), and
Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) for facilities processing
agricultural waste like rice husks, corn waste, and plywood residue.
Serve as the primary technical lead on the ground during the build phase,
ensuring construction aligns with strict engineering specifications and safety
standards.
Troubleshoot process bottlenecks during site startups and transition plants
into smooth, continuous operation for behind-the-meter electricity generation.
Collaborate closely with internal project teams and on-site agricultural
partners to ensure seamless facility integration.

About You

Education: Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering,
or a closely related technical field.
Experience: Proven track record in process engineering with specific, hands-on
experience in biomass gasification and thermal energy systems.
Field Readiness: Highly comfortable transitioning from remote design work to
hands-on site supervision. You must be willing to travel extensively to
agricultural production sites for installations and commissioning.
Technical Acumen: Strong proficiency in calculating mass and energy balances
and developing technical diagrams for waste-to-energy pathways.
Problem Solver: Ability to make critical engineering decisions on-site to keep
construction and commissioning on schedule.

Why Join Us? You will be at the forefront of decarbonizing heavy agriculture.
This role offers the autonomy of remote work combined with the tangible
satisfaction of building and commissioning physical infrastructure that
eliminates energy costs for producers and removes carbon from the atmosphere.

How to Apply Please submit your resume and a brief cover letter outlining your
specific experience with biomass gasification and site installations.
