Process Engineer (f/m/d) Plant Safety

Process Engineer (f/m/d) Plant Safety

A snapshot of your day: In this role you combine technical expertise, cross‑functional collaboration and a strong focus on safety in power generation and distribution plants. You coordinate functional safety and technical plant safety activities across projects, working closely with engineers, project teams and stakeholders to develop and align technical safety concepts.

Throughout the day you lead and moderate hazard analyses and risk assessments such as HAZID, HAZOP, QRA and SIL studies, helping to identify potential risks and define appropriate mitigation measures.
