Job Title: Process Team Lead Sector: Energy/ Power Planet Purpose of the Job The Process Team Lead is responsible for leading and overseeing the Process Engineering discipline for thermal power plant projects, ensuring that the process design meets project requirements, applicable engineering standards, safety requirements, and operational objectives. The role is responsible for ensuring that the process system:

Meets the functional and performance requirements of the project. Meets applicable safety, reliability, maintainability, and operability requirements. Meets project specifications and recognized industry standards. Meets applicable equipment sparing requirements. Provides appropriate and accurate process information to other engineering disciplines. Supports efficient procurement, construction, pre-commissioning, commissioning, startup, and handover activities.

The Process Team Lead will also ensure that equipment sizing and selection are technically appropriate and that the overall process design is sufficiently developed to support procurement, construction, commissioning, and final handover. Main Duties and Responsibilities Process Engineering & Design

Lead and coordinate Process Engineering activities throughout the project lifecycle. Review and approve process engineering deliverables, including: Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs) Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) Heat and Material Balances Hydraulic calculations and studies Operating and process design manuals Process calculations and technical reports Review and approve Utility Flow Diagrams (UFDs) and Utility Distribution Diagrams (UDDs). Perform or review process simulations and develop basic process diagrams, including PFDs and heat/material balances.

Ensure appropriate process equipment sizing and selection in accordance with project specifications and recognized industry practices. Review process design calculations and verify that design assumptions and parameters are technically sound. Ensure process designs adequately address safety, reliability, operability, maintainability, and efficiency requirements. Provide accurate process engineering data and technical input to other engineering disciplines.

Thermal Power Plant Engineering

Apply relevant process engineering principles and practices applicable to thermal power plant systems. Ensure process engineering activities are aligned with the specific requirements of thermal power plant design and operation. Coordinate process design interfaces between major plant systems and other engineering disciplines.

Review process requirements related to plant operation, startup, shutdown, utilities, and associated systems. Support resolution of technical issues arising during engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, and operation. Ensure process engineering deliverables remain aligned with project requirements and approved design changes. Lead and coordinate the Process Engineering team and allocate work according to project priorities. Review the work and deliverables prepared by Process Engineers and other team members.

Provide technical guidance and support to junior and senior process engineers. Inform the Process team of project scope changes and provide direction on required technical modifications. Ensure process documentation is updated in line with approved changes. Coordinate closely with other engineering disciplines to ensure effective multidisciplinary integration. Participate in technical discussions and provide solutions to process-related issues. Monitor progress, identify technical or resource constraints, and elevate critical issues to the Project Engineering Manager.

Construction & Procurement Support

Support the construction team during the construction phase to ensure that process design remains aligned with approved project requirements. Review and address technical queries, site requests, and design changes related to Process Engineering. Support the procurement team by providing process information and reviewing relevant technical documentation. Review vendor documentation and technical submissions where required.

Ensure approved changes resulting from procurement or construction activities are properly reflected in process documentation. Provide Process Engineering support during pre-commissioning and commissioning activities. Support troubleshooting and resolution of process-related issues during commissioning and startup. Review plant startup and shutdown procedures and other relevant operational procedures. Participate in commissioning, performance testing, and handover activities as required.

Review and approve marked-up engineering documents prior to the preparation and issuance of final as-bui
