Senior Process Engineer (Continuous Improvement)

Objectives:

• Developing, optimizing, and improving manufacturing processes to enhance productivity, quality and safety.
• Identifying and implementing process improvements to reduce costs, minimize waste and increase efficiency.
• Collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure smooth integration of new processes, technologies and equipment.
• Monitoring and analyzing process data, identifying trends and proposing solutions for process improvement continuously.
• Performing process capability studies, statistical analysis and data-driven decision-making to achieve operational excellence and meet production targets.
• Ensuring compliance with safety, environmental and regulatory requirements in all process engineering activities.

Main duties:

1.SOP Adaptation & Issuance Capability:

• Ability to convert R&D processes into feasible, clear, and repeatable production SOPs.
• Competent in adjusting: Raw material charging sequence, Mixing time, Agitation speed, Operating temperature
• Experience in drafting SOPs that are practical, unambiguous, and operator friendly.
• Good knowledge of GMP / ISO / ISO 22716.
• Able to collaborate with QA to officially issue and control SOPs.

2.Problem-Solving & Process Troubleshooting:

• Optimize existing processes to reduce cost and improve quality.
• Implement process control systems, monitor performance, and identify areas for improvement using data analysis – Incomplete dissolution/ Lumping/Phase separation/Incorrect viscosity/Poor Homogeneity
• Conduct risk assessments, ensure compliance with Health, safety and environment regulations, implement mitigation strategies
• Maintain Process documentation – SOP’s, PFD’s and PID’s

3.Cross-Functional Communication:

• Work with cross functional teams , R&D/Production/QA/QC, provide technical support and train staff on new processes and equipment,
• Effective collaboration with: R&D – to understand formulation intent, Production – to work within equipment limitations, QA/QC – to ensure compliance.
• Able to communicate clearly, technically, and assertively.

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering (chemical, automation, industrial or similar).
• Minimum 2–3 years of hands-on experience in a manufacturing plant (cosmetics, personal care, food, or chemical industries preferred).
• In hand experience with production equipment, such as: Mixing tanks, Homogenizers, Bottom-entry mixers, Various impeller types
• Experience in scale-up from lab/pilot to full-scale production. Clear understanding of the gap between R&D procedures and real production constraints
• Proficient in process analysis, process modelling, statistical analysis and simulation software.
• Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills with the ability to identify and resolve complex process issues.
• Working knowledge of process safety, risk assessment and compliance with regulatory standards.
• Good at English, effective communication and interpersonal skills to collaborate with cross-functional teams and stakeholders.
• Strong project management skills with the ability to prioritize tasks and meet deadlines.
