- An active Professional Engineer licence in the United States
- Experience in process design, process safety, plant operations, or multiple chemical engineering areas
- Strong familiarity with process-safety standards, technical documentation, and engineering workflows
- Practical experience using Aspen, MATLAB, or comparable process-simulation and analytical tools
- Professional working proficiency in English
- Strong written communication, technical reasoning, and attention to detail
- Reliable availability for approximately 10 hours per week
- Based in the United States
- A degree in chemical engineering from a recognised institution is required
- An active US Professional Engineer licence is required
Nice To Haves
- Experience across more than one chemical engineering area
- Background preparing process documentation, standard operating procedures, or technical training materials
- Familiarity with process hazard analysis, HAZOP, risk assessment, or management of change
- Experience reviewing or mentoring the work of junior engineers
- Knowledge of engineering quality assurance, peer review, or process validation
- Comfort using AI tools such as ChatGPT or comparable systems
- Previous experience with content evaluation, structured feedback, or AI training projects
- Experience supporting completed industrial, manufacturing, energy, pharmaceutical, or chemical-processing projects
- Advanced study or professional training in process engineering, process safety, plant operations, or a related area may strengthen an application
- Continuing education involving engineering standards, simulation tools, safety systems, or process optimisation may also be valuable
Responsibilities
- Review written content and AI-generated responses for technical accuracy, relevance, and professional quality
- Assess whether calculations, analyses, recommendations, and conclusions reflect sound chemical engineering practice
- Identify incorrect assumptions, process-design errors, safety concerns, and technical inconsistencies
- Evaluate content within the candidate's strongest areas of chemical engineering expertise
- Answer chemical engineering questions using clear, well-reasoned technical explanations
- Apply professional judgment to process design, plant operations, process safety, and engineering documentation
- Assess whether responses account for operating conditions, material properties, equipment limitations, and safety requirements
- Provide corrections and supporting rationale where content requires improvement
- Review the application of process-safety standards and industry guidance, including OSHA PSM and relevant API standards
- Identify reliable technical references appropriate to assigned engineering topics
- Assess whether cited methods, standards, and assumptions suit the relevant process context
- Highlight safety, regulatory, operational, and procedural considerations affecting engineering decisions
- Share insight into practical chemical engineering workflows, tools, and quality-control processes
- Evaluate content involving Aspen, MATLAB, process simulators, or comparable engineering software
- Review process documentation, standard operating procedures, calculations, and technical training materials
- Collaborate asynchronously with a small group of subject-matter experts across different fields
Benefits
- Competitive rates between $60–$85 per hour depending on expertise and project scope
- Flexible remote engagement
- Potential for continued work
