The key expectation is to combine traditional process engineering and plant operations expertise with advanced digital and analytical skills to drive efficiency, innovation, and safety. Project domains - Chemical / Refinery / Petrochemical / Oil & Gas customers of Honeywell within & outside India.
We are seeking a Process Engineer to focus on operational optimization solutions based on AI for our customers utilizing the Experion DCS system. The ideal candidate will act as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) and collaborate closely with Data Scientists and Experion System Engineers to define and validate the solutions.
Active contribution in customer workshop to define problems/probable solutions, working with Data engineers, Data scientists to engineer the solution, interface with Honeywell product development as needed during product feature enhancement/ validation. Needs to travel to customer locations to perform workshop, deployment, testing of the solutions.
- Expectations in this role:
- Lead the workshops: Review the plant operation; Drive to define operational problems/ probable solutions with customers; Prepare reports.
- Define problems using data: Perform Data Analysis - history, Alarm & Events, P&ID, PFD, Graphics and define impacted parameters and corelated parameters. (eg. Instruments/ equipment’s contributing to a particular Alarm, Define critical operating parameters, define Alarm Rationalization)
- Define Equipment to Equipment to Instrument relation: Using P&ID and PFD, define process relationship, Its impact on upstream and Downstream
- Validate Strategy: Validate strategy defined by Data Scientist and align with before proceeding with AI Models.
- Validate AI Model outcome: Validate AI Model outcome based on historical data or process Simulation (DCS or OTS) data.
- Customer Testing:
- Reports: Review fortnightly or monthly usage/feedback from customer and share a report about effectiveness.
- Optimization: Work with product development team for any feature improvements, Validation and rectifying any issues in the product.
Offline : Review and Test solution by simulation on DCS System along with Customer.
Onsite: Deploy onsite and demonstrate the results to customer operations team along with DCS System Engineer.
