Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Heirloom Carbon Full time
About Us

All across the world, from various stunning locations like Turkey, Oman, and Yellowstone, our planet quietly performs the remarkable task of turning carbon dioxide into stone. This natural process has been vital in regulating Earth's carbon cycle. Imagine if we could utilize this process more effectively and affordably to combat climate change.

At Heirloom, we are making this vision a reality. By harnessing the carbon capture abilities of abundant minerals, we extract CO2 from the atmosphere and store it underground permanently. Our mission is clear - to remove 1 billion tons of CO2 from the air by 2035, and we are determined to achieve this goal.

We blend the perfect mix of science, technology, expertise, and strategic planning to make affordable and high-quality carbon removal possible. Our success will not only help mitigate climate change but also create a sustainable world for future generations and catalyze a groundbreaking industry. If you are passionate about making a difference, we welcome you to be part of our team.

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

As the impact of climate change intensifies, marginalized communities are among the hardest hit. We strongly believe that diversity is essential for Heirloom's success. That's why we prioritize recruiting, hiring, and supporting individuals from underrepresented groups.

The Role

We are looking for innovative engineers ready to transform the future of carbon removal technology at Heirloom. As a Process Control Engineer, you will play a key role in developing our cutting-edge direct air capture technology. Your task is to design control systems and specify process instrumentation for our upcoming commercial plants to pave the way for a greener, more sustainable future.

Bring your expertise in chemical processing, gained from industries like oil & gas or green energy, to create the control architecture and instrumentation for our unique carbon capture and sequestration system. Dive into PLCs, control logic, and process instrumentation to craft the control system for a revolutionary direct air capture facility.

Collaborate with diverse teams and vendors to push the boundaries of controls and instrumentation, ensuring efficiency and effectiveness in every stage of the carbon removal and storage process.

What you will bring

Your 5+ years of experience in chemical processing or chemical engineering, focusing on design specifications and control system strategies, are vital. Your expertise in programming PLCs and familiarity with languages like Ladder Diagram (LD), Sequential Function Charts (SFC), and others will be valuable additions to our team.

Experience in power distribution, plant automation, and meticulous attention to detail in HMI interface development will further prepare you for success in this dynamic role. We welcome diverse skills and perspectives, so don't hesitate to apply if you are passionate about making a tangible impact on our planet's future.

The compensation for this position is expected to range between $140,000 and $175,000, depending on experience.
