**About DiviGas**
At **DiviGas, **we have developed a radically new process for manufacturing membranes which has yielded vastly superior results to what a membrane can do and a way to separate hydrogen with a membrane that has stunning robustness and performance. Our invented proprietary polymers can make a new hydrogen membrane, a nano-molecular filter, that allows for this wasted gas to be reused. The results have led to our rapid growth for manufacturing and selling entire plug-and-play systems designed to seamlessly and cost-effectively separate and recover hydrogen and other gases at petrochemical plants and refineries.
**Summary of the Role**
We are looking for an experienced **Membrane Fabrication Expert **to join the company's production team and will be based in our facility in Port Melbourne, Victoria. This role would be the **1st line worker **in the company and would be a **key player **in helping to ensure the stable expansion of our production capabilities. If you have experience working with membrane fabrication or gas separation modules in a dynamic and fast-growing company, then this role is for you
Together with our CTO, Head of R&D and Director of Manufacturing, you will be responsible for ensuring that all processes are transferred from R&D to manufacturing in a robust fashion. You can expect to work constantly with industrial grade chemicals, gases, as well as advanced/ heavy fabrication machinery and equipment.
**Functions & Responsibilities**
- Work in and be responsible for the execution of different manufacturing and fabrication processes, e.g., chemical mixing and heavy equipment operations.
- Support and execute preventive maintenance procedures for assigned equipment and machinery in accordance with equipment requirements as recommended by the technical team.
- Oversee and ensure the correct and safe usage of all manufacturing and fabrication machinery and equipment, in accordance with Instructions for Use and Health and Safety protocols.
- Prepare and manufacture sub-modules correctly in accordance with work instructions throughout all stages of the manufacturing process, e.g. prepare polymer solutions with adjusted concentrations and temperatures, perform fiber spinning by using different types of spinnerets and pumps at different conditions, conduct membrane after fabrication etc.
- Overall responsible for the upkeep of module production quality documentation and records.
- Be a key player in implementation of Health and Safety protocols and requirements as well as its documentation and continuous improvement.
- Help perform quality control, performance testing, and troubleshooting at different stages of the fabrication and manufacturing process of different industrial size gas separation systems.
- Work with a team of engineers and chemists to streamline the membrane scale-up process with pilot system integration.
- Perform related work as required, such as involvement in multiple projects related to new research and continuous product improvement initiatives involving gas separation and water treatment using membranes.
**Required Qualifications**
- Diploma/Bachelor in Mechanical/Environmental/Chemical/Polymer Engineering.
- Relevant experience in the gas industry/water industry, mainly related to membrane manufacturing, UF, and NF membranes, as well as the gas membrane, is a definite advantage.
- Able to execute individual tasks and work in a project team.
- Gas separation process knowledge is preferred.
- Trained in or familiar with health, safety and environment (HSE) practices/protocols (e.g., safety risk assessment, etc.)
**Other Good-to-Have Skills**
- Good inter-department communication skills.
- Has self-initiative, is highly motivated and a self-starter with the ability to perform duties independently, with mínimal supervision.
