Senior Chemical Systems Engineer - Chemical Distribution (m/f/d) Shape
the chemical infrastructure behind one of Europe’s most advanced
semiconductor manufacturing facilities. Join ESMC and become part of a
once-in-a-generation greenfield project in Dresden. As a Senior
Chemical Systems Engineer, you will take technical ownership of the
chemical distribution infrastructure that enables stable semiconductor
manufacturing. Rather than developing chemical products, you will
ensure the safe, reliable and uninterrupted supply of specialty
chemicals through highly automated distribution systems. Working
closely with global engineering teams, technicians and external
partners, you will optimize system performance, solve complex
technical challenges and help build the operational standards for our
new 300 mm semiconductor fab. Tasks Take technical ownership of our
Chemical Distribution Systems (CDS), Gas Distribution Systems (GDS),
Slurry Distribution Systems (SDS) and other chemical utility systems
that support semiconductor production. Maintain safe, reliable and
uninterrupted operation of critical chemical supply systems while
ensuring compliance with environmental, health and safety regulations.
Lead troubleshooting activities, perform Root Cause Analysis (RCA),
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and implement sustainable
corrective actions to improve long-term system reliability. Identify
opportunities to increase system availability, improve operational
performance and optimize maintenance strategies through data-driven
engineering. Contribute to the design, construction, commissioning and
start-up of new chemical distribution systems and facility upgrades.
