• Design, build, commission, and validate pilot-scale process units of mineral recovery systems.
• Integrate process units for continuous processing and recovery of critical minerals, ensuring high-purity products.
• Oversee the automation of recovery system prototypes.
• Support the modeling of recovery systems to determine process variable sensitivities for pilot- and demo-scale systems.
• Collaborate with external partners (e.g., suppliers, contractors, EPCs) to determine design requirements for unit operations, source materials for pilot plant operations, and identify design needs at larger scales.
• Prepare and manage comprehensive documentation, including flowsheets, equipment and process design criteria, technical reports, and standard operating procedures.
