Staff HSE Air Engineer

Expand Energy•Oklahoma City, OK

About The Position

This senior-level role is responsible for advancing the company’s carbon accounting and emissions analytics capabilities, strengthening a scalable, data-driven approach to how emissions are estimated, forecasted, and managed across upstream operations. This position will lead the continued development and integration of tools, data, and processes that connect emissions data, forecasting, and performance tracking, enabling the organization to move from static reporting to more dynamic, decision-ready emissions insights. This role works closely across the air team and with multiple departments to align efforts, connect data and processes, and drive efficiencies, helping build a more cohesive approach to carbon management that supports improved decision-making and stronger environmental and operational performance. This role offers ownership of a high-impact, high-visibility platform that underpins company emissions strategy, opportunity to shape how emissions data is used - not just reported, a role that blends technical depth, data systems, and strategic influence, broad collaboration across operations, engineering, sustainability, and leadership.

Responsibilities

Lead the evolution and continuous improvement of the carbon accounting and emissions management program, including advancing tools, systems, and capabilities.
Develop integrated workflows that connect periodic GHG inventories, forward-looking emissions forecasts, and ongoing tracking of actuals vs. forecast performance.
Enhance and standardize processes for data aggregation, validation, and calculation methodologies to improve scalability and efficiency.
Drive cross-functional alignment to deliver consistent, decision-ready emissions insights.
Improve transparency, auditability, and usability of emissions data through streamlined workflows, enhanced visuals, and potential system/platform enablement.
Maintain working knowledge of GHG and air regulatory frameworks (e.g., GHGRP).
Support reporting and audit processes by ensuring underlying data and methodologies are robust and defensible.
Help streamline and modernize reporting processes through system improvements.
Develop and maintain emissions forecasting capabilities, including scenario analysis and key driver identification.
Deliver clear, actionable insights on emissions performance to support business decision-making.
Build and refine metrics that are meaningful and easily consumed across the organization (Ops, Engineering, Leadership).
Translate complex emissions data into simple, decision-ready outputs (dashboards, visuals, summaries).
Partner with IT and data teams to integrate emissions data across systems and tools.
Identify opportunities to automate workflows and reduce manual effort in data collection and reporting.
Support improvement of data quality, controls, and governance across multiple sources and platforms.
Support development of user-friendly tools for field and corporate stakeholders.
Partner with internal teams to incorporate data from detection programs (sensors, OGI, satellite) into the broader emissions framework.
Support development of processes to evaluate and respond to emissions detections.
Provide analytical support to improve how detection data informs emissions understanding and reduction.
Support identification and prioritization of emissions reduction opportunities.
Provide analytical input into MACC development and project tracking.
Collaborate with operations and engineering to quantify impact of reduction initiatives.
Support initiatives such as RSG certification, Sustainability reporting, and OGMP.
