Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Again Full time
About Again

We are a pioneering company tackling one of the world's most pressing issues - CO2 emissions. Our innovative approach involves transforming industrial waste gases into carbon-negative chemicals, thereby turning harmful emissions into valuable, emission-free green chemicals. With each tonne of product we create, we remove over 2 tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere. Backed by significant funding from top venture capital investors and the European Union's Horizon 2020 programme, we're poised for rapid growth and global impact.

What you'll do

We are seeking an Automation & Controls Engineer to drive the implementation of our bioCCU technology at our first-of-a-kind (FOAK) commercial plant. You will lead the development and integration of a Distributed Control System (DCS) that connects the bioreactors and various process sub-units, including gas compression, product recovery, and resource recycling systems. Your work will be critical to the seamless operation and scale-up of our CO2 conversion technology.

Responsibilities
  • Develop and implement DCS architecture and control specifications, ensuring process security, data management, and system robustness.
  • Collaborate with process engineering and operations teams to capture operational philosophy and develop control specifications, including cause and effect matrices (CEMs).
  • During Procurement, engage with vendors to ensure equipment compatibility with the overall control philosophy, managing control system integration across all units.
  • Act as the primary internal resource for controls and automation, overseeing factory acceptance tests (FATs), site acceptance tests (SATs), commissioning, and startup activities (including alarm setting and management).
  • Assist with procedure development, especially for (but not limited to) potential safety instrumented systems (SIS).
  • Help lead IT architecture development for the industrial site, ensuring data security and facilitating remote monitoring.
About you
  • Hands-on experience with infrastructure, control systems, and process automation development. Specifically on one or more of the major DCS platforms.
  • Strong technical skills in automation and ability to develop tools and processes for automation engineering.
  • Expertise in industrial control systems, risk management, process improvement, and project management.
  • Ability to take immediate ownership of ongoing control system development, with strong vendor management and oversight skills.
  • You are an unconventional and out-of-the-box thinker (which is essential, as we are doing things that haven't been done before).
  • Available for frequent travel to the US in the coming year (or if you live in Houston, that works too).
What we promise you
  • You get to work with a group of passionate scientists, working on challenging and meaningful projects.
  • This will be the journey of a lifetime – we are serious about our mission to reduce over 1 gigaton of CO2 and you can play a pivotal role in making that happen.
  • We live by our company values: Relentless Grit, Unreasonably Ambitious, Unconventional Thinking, Critical Urgency.
  • An inclusive, empowering and engaging work environment.
  • We understand that relocating can be a hassle, so if you don't live in Denmark, we will help out to give you a smooth transition.
