  • Review and interpret the application of codes, standards, operating procedures, and safety instructions, ensuring compliance with industry norms.
  • Develop engineering, material, and equipment specifications, and resolve engineering problems while applying accepted principles and standards.
  • Support proposals for new construction, modifications, or equipment maintenance by developing solutions based on operating requirements, process considerations, and economic factors.
