About the Role
At C1 Green Chemicals, your models directly support process concepts that move from equations to pilot-scale reality, influencing real decisions and having a measurable impact on sustainable chemical process design.
Responsibilities
- Build and run steady-state and/or dynamic process simulations
- Integrate and adapt kinetic sub-models within existing simulation environments
- Support early-stage technical assessments of process concepts
- Assist with CAPEX/OPEX estimations using existing templates and assumptions
- Document assumptions, calculation paths and results in a clear, reproducible way
- Develop small programming tools or scripts for data handling, analysis or reporting
- Collaborate closely with engineering and lab teams
Requirements
- Enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's program (chemical engineering, process engineering or similar)
- Mandatory internship as required by your study regulations
- Strong fundamentals in thermodynamics, reaction engineering/kinetics and separations
- Hands-on experience with process simulation software (e.g. Aspen Plus/HYSYS, gPROMS)
- Python skills (NumPy, Pandas, plotting, basic automation)
- Analytical mindset, structured documentation and strong ownership of your tasks

About the Company
- Develops and scales new chemical processes from lab to pilot scale.
- Teams span catalysis, synthesis, engineering and technical operations.
- Simulation plays a key role in deciding which technologies are built, tested and scaled – not as theory, but as a practical engineering tool.
- Re-inventing chemistry by developing disruptive chemical production processes from the atomic level up to production scale.
- Explores new chemistries by employing quantum-chemical simulations and transfers them into proprietary production technology.
- Designs green processes based on renewable feedstocks & energy, enabling closed carbon loops.
- Supports industries in their net zero journey with climate-friendly chemical technologies.
- Proprietary C1 methanol technology unlocks green methanol production.
