At Kanadevia Inova, we pride ourselves on being at the forefront of waste-to-X technology. We are not just waste managers; we are creators of value from what communities discard. Your role at Kanadevia Inova directly contributes to turning something once considered useless - waste - into something invaluable: energy, heat, hydrogen, fertilizer, and beyond.
Job Description- Develop technology (on process and machine/design/sensor level) and implement/test
- Execute subprojects hands-on
- Analyze and amend logic diagrams, human inputs, alarms, plant data
- Optimize, further develop and integrate control algorithms
- Execute on-site activities (install/test instrumentation, validate setups, troubleshoot issues)
- Evaluate current operating processes and systems with focus on increasing automation level
- Dive into plant data, extract trends, propose statistical KPIs
- Translate findings into actionable initiatives, work packages, and execute them
- Master’s degree or PhD in a relevant engineering discipline (process, automation, mechanical)
- Strong understanding of general process design and underlying disciplines (mechanics, chemistry, physics and thermodynamics) – focus on application in waste to energy process from waste delivery to combustion
- Minimum of 5 years of relevant professional experience in engineering and development of technical solutions, automation or applied R&D (TRL 6+)
- Has a solid understanding of automation/digitalization landscape (network & communication, PLC, instrumentation)
- Has proven hands-on experience in structuring, managing and contributing to complex R&D projects with strong analytical thinking
- Is collaborative, self-driven, solution-oriented, and comfortable working autonomously
- Must be able to travel to sites across Europe for site implementation of prototype solutions (~15%)
For HR agencies: Please note that we do not accept applications coming from agencies. Thank you.
