Assembly

About the role

  • Direct Pre-FEED / FEED delivery engagements for Candid’s clients across LNG, gas-to-power, power generation, midstream, and downstream/petrochemical projects
  • Own the assembly and quality of design basis packages, process basis documents, and supporting deliverables (line lists, P&IDs/PFDs, equipment datasheets, utility summaries, relief load summaries, materials selection studies)
  • Serve as the authoritative engineering voice in client conversations — project development managers, VPs of Projects, and heads of engineering who will look to you for understanding the work
  • Work directly with our product and AI engineering team to translate real pre-FEED and FEED workflows into automation targets — what takes 600 hours today should take 60 tomorrow
  • Identify and flag inconsistencies, gaps, and quality issues that our AI tools should catch automatically
  • Advise on project execution strategy, PDRI scoring, and gate review readiness for client engagements
  • Help shape Candid’s delivery methodology and standards as we scale from early clients to a repeatable practice

Requirements

  • 15+ years in capital project execution, with significant time in LNG, gas-to-power, power generation, midstream, or petrochemical facilities
  • You have directed or led Pre-FEED / FEED / Concept Select phases end-to-end — not just participated, directed
  • Deep fluency in FEL stage-gate processes, PDRI, design basis development, process engineering deliverables, and the full document ecosystem that feeds datasheets (Process Design Basis Memorandum, Line Lists, P&IDs, HAZOP outputs, Corrosion/Materials Selection Studies, Utility Summaries, licensor Process Data Books)
  • Comfort with relevant standards: API 660, API 610, API 617, TEMA, NACE MR0175, GPSA Data Book
  • You have worked on the EPC side, the owner/operator side, or both — either way, you understand the interface and the tension between them
  • Strong opinions on where engineering hours get wasted, where errors propagate, and what should be automated
  • You are not threatened by AI — you are excited by it. You see the waste in current workflows and want to fix it.
Benefits
  • Base + meaningful equity
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Insurance with medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Daily lunch & dinner at the office
  • Health and wellness budget up to $150 per month
