SR. PROJECT ENGINEER
The Senior Project Engineer will play a key role in the development, construction, and start-up of Hydrite’s new Laurens, SC greenfield facility, with the expectation of transitioning into a long-term engineering role supporting the site post-startup. This position provides hands-on leadership through all phases of the Laurens expansion—from front-end engineering and detailed design through construction, commissioning, and start-up—while establishing the engineering, operational, and reliability foundation for the new facility. Following startup, the role will shift to ongoing capital project execution, continuous improvement, and plant engineering support.
The ideal candidate brings strong project execution capability, thrives in a greenfield environment, and demonstrates the ability to bridge project delivery with practical, day-to-day plant operations.
Primary responsibilities include:
Greenfield Development & Start-Up (Primary Focus)
- Lead and support execution of capital projects for the Laurens greenfield facility from design through start-up
- Partner with corporate engineering, construction teams, and contractors to ensure scope, schedule, and cost alignment
- Support development of site standards, engineering practices, and documentation (P&IDs, specs, procedures)
- Drive commissioning and start-up activities, including troubleshooting and performance validation
- Establish foundational systems for reliability, maintenance, and operational readiness
Transition to Ongoing Project Engineering
- Manage and execute capital and improvement projects for the Laurens site post-startup
