Process Engineer looking to Build a Greener Future

Om jobbet

We are a disruptive, sustainable materials startup producing one of the highest quality lignin from unutilized biomass. We're not just innovating-we're building a greener future.

Now, we're looking for an innovative Process Engineer to help us lead the change. Are you the one? Please share your application with us today!

Who are we?

At Bright Materia, we have a new Lignin production process that utilizes wasted biomass from forestry, agriculture, and several other biomass materials to produce a high-quality material that can replace fossil equivalent in the market today in a wide range of applications.

Why is this important?

From skincare products in the cosmetics industry to the manufacturing of batteries to construction materials, the need for high-quality lignin is exponentially increasing across the globe. So, offering a sustainable, high-quality material will disrupt the market and accelerate the green transition.

What have we achieved?

Our solution is based on years of research from KTH Royal Institute of Technology, and we have filed three distinct patents for our material production processes. We have shown the scalability going from lab-scale to small pilot scale.

We are a part of the largest Nordic startup accelerator at Sting in Stockholm and have recently closed an investment round with VOYAGERS Climate-Tech Fund, KTH Holding, and Vinnova with ongoing grand and soft funding extending our runway towards commercialization.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for a Process Engineer with experience from the process industry to join us, who will have a key role in simulation and analysis related to the process, including designing and scaling the process. You will also take part in experimental work related to the process. The role begins as a part-time position at around 50%, with the potential to expand as the company grows.

Requirements

• Experience in process-related simulations and analysis
• Experience in process design
• Experience in upscaling processes
• Hands-on practical experience in building and operating processes equipment
• Passion for sustainability

Why join us?

Impact: We believe we have a great opportunity and an important role to join our company in this early stage and shape its future as we envision an ambitious goal of becoming market leaders in sustainable materials.

Solid Research: We have years of research and development backing us with trade secrets that give us an unfair advantage and a sound board, advisors, and promising early customers giving us a good head start.

Sustainability: We are accelerating the green transition by using waste biomaterials and producing lignin that can disrupt multiple industries that rely on it.
