About the Role

Braskem is committed to reducing the carbon intensity of its products through technology development using bio-based feedstocks. Two state-of-the-art facilities bring together scientists and engineers from various disciplines to develop novel technologies for the production of bio-based chemicals and materials.

The company seeks an exceptional downstream bioprocess engineer for conceptual process design and scale-up of emerging technologies in the area of bio-based chemicals via fermentation processes. The candidate will be responsible for downstream commercial process design, ensuring technical risks are addressed and mitigated during the scale-up from lab to pilot/demo phases.

Main Responsibilities:

  • Build strong relationships while working closely with firms operating or constructing pilot plant fermentation and downstream units.
  • Support process safety reviews for emerging technologies.
  • Generate the technology transfer package for the DSP section of the bioprocess. Serve as the DSP process expert during pilot and demo testing.
  • Own responsibility as the expert on process technology and key deliverables of the Process Design Package (PDP) for commercial design and engineering or toll manufacturing.

Requirements and Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering or relevant field (Ph.D. is a plus)
  • 10+ years experience in bioprocess engineering
  • Demonstrated experience in process development for fermentation product purification and implementation of new bioprocess technology at industrial scale.

  • Experience in pilot plant and/or demo plant operation
  • Experience with both solvent-based and aqueous-based recovery processes
  • Strong technical judgment to assess project decisions and timetables
  • Ability and seniority to ensure good interpersonal relationships and people management, working on projects with internal and external interfaces
  • Working knowledge of intellectual property
