Process engineer

Process Engineer

Sydney or Brisbane · Full-time, permanent

Tired of delivering work you never see in the field, three management layers from the project? We're a senior, hands-on team that embeds with clients and owns outcomes from concept to commissioning.

About us

Amarna Energy is an independent, multidisciplinary engineering consultancy in Sydney and Brisbane. We work across hydrogen, biofuels, power generation, energy storage, solar, EV charging and hard‐to‐abate industrial projects — and because we're not tied to any equipment supplier or construction partner, our advice is genuinely independent.

The role

You'll deliver process engineering design and advisory work across our energy and industrial portfolio — PFDs, P&IDs, mass and energy balances, equipment sizing and specification, and process safety — from feasibility and FEED through detailed design, construction support and commissioning. You'll work alongside our electrical, mechanical and controls engineers, and mentor less experienced staff.

What you'll bring

• Degree in Chemical/Process Engineering and 5+ years' design experience
• CPEng (or working towards it)
• Strong P&ID, mass/energy balance and equipment specification skills
• HAZOP/HAZID experience and sound process safety knowledge
• Process simulation (Aspen HYSYS, Aspen Plus, PRO/II or similar)
• Clear communicator, comfortable client-facing and across disciplines
• Australian working rights — this role is not open to visa sponsorship

Bonus: RPEQ (or eligible), and exposure to hydrogen, biofuels or power generation.

Why Amarna

Senior peer team, no management-by-distance. Broad, technically varied work across the energy transition and industry. Visible contribution in a growing business. Competitive pay and genuine flexibility.
