Job details:
We are seeking a Simulation Engineer (Process Modeling) with a strong interest in process simulation and modeling to support process studies, design, optimization, and operator training using ANDRITZ IDEAS simulation software.
In this role, you will develop and apply dynamic and steady-state process models across mining, mineral processing, and other industrial sectors. You will work closely with multidisciplinary teams to translate engineering and operational data into practical, buildable process models that support decision-making from early-stage studies through execution and plant start-up. This is a client-facing role suited to engineers who enjoy both technical problem-solving and collaboration.
Roles & Responsibilities
Process Modeling & Simulation:
- Develop and maintain steady-state and dynamic process models using ANDRITZ IDEAS and other simulation tools
- Build flowsheets, mass and energy balances, process logic, and control representations
- Apply models to support:
- Process design verification and optimization
- Scenario and “what-if” analysis
- Operator Training Simulators (OTS)
- Control System Checkout
- Digital Twin applications
- Performance analysis and troubleshooting
Engineering & Project Support:
- Prepare and review technical specifications, reports, and engineering documentation
- Translate engineering data, feasibility studies, and operating data into simulation models
- Contribute to techno-economic evaluations (TEA), including process assumptions and key cost drivers
- Support process audits, HAZOP reviews, debottlenecking, and optimization initiatives
- Assist with engineering verification, commissioning, operator training, and plant start-up
Sales Support:
- Provide technical support during customer meetings and proposal development
Collaboration & Client Interaction:
- Participate in technical discussions with customers, internal teams, and suppliers
- Present modeling results and technical findings to both technical and non-technical audiences
- Identify technical risks, scope changes, and improvement opportunities to support project delivery and business development
What We’re Looking For
- Bachelor’s degree in mining, Metallurgical, Chemical Engineering, or a related discipline
- Experience in process modeling and simulation (steady-state and/or dynamic)
- Strong understanding of process engineering fundamentals, including:
- Mass and energy balance
- Fluid mechanics
- Process and materials technology
- Metallurgical processes and unit operations
- Familiarity with process control concepts and control strategies
- Ability to read and interpret PFDs, P&IDs, and technical specifications
- Experience working in project-based engineering environments
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail
- Effective communication skills and ability to work collaboratively across teams
- Fluent in English
Nice to Have
- Experience with ANDRITZ IDEAS simulation software
- Experience with other simulation tools (e.g., Aspen Plus, METSIM, SysCAD)
- Knowledge of mining and mineral processing circuits (crushing, grinding, flotation, classification, thickening, filtration)
- Familiarity with operator training simulators and digital twin applications
- Programming skills (e.g., Python)
- Experience supporting commissioning and plant start-up activities
Location & Travel
- Location: Bangalore, India
- Travel: Domestic and international travel required based on project needs
