Process design verification and optimization
What-if and scenario analysis
Operator training simulators (OTS)
Control System Checkout
Digital Twins
Performance analysis and troubleshooting
Prepare and review technical specifications, manuals, reports, and vendor documents.
Assist with process model development by translating engineering documents, feasibility reports, test data, pilot results, or operating data into process models.
Contribute to techno-economic evaluations (TEA),



including process design assumptions, modeling input, and cost drivers.
Support process audits, HAZOP analysis, debottlenecking studies, and optimization initiatives to improve CAPEX/OPEX planning, engineering verification, commissioning, operator training, and plant startup.
Provide technical support to the sales organization during customer meetings and detailed proposals.
Participate in technical discussions with customers, internal product groups, and suppliers.
Present modeling results and technical findings in a clear, structured manner to both technical and non-technical audiences.
