We own and operate North America's largest refinery, based in Port Arthur, TX, headquartered in Houston, TX, along with Terminals and Pipelines across the Southeast Coast.

Position Overview:

The Project Engineer will manage the planning activities and resources of multiple capital projects ranging in size from $50M to $10MM to capture specific business objectives.

You will manage all resources available to meet all project milestones and execute projects from conception to start up, including during turnarounds and at shutdowns. Under the guidance of a senior manager, you will have authority to formulate and execute budgets and will be responsible for cost and schedule performance of projects.

While technical expertise and ability to execute projects are essential, equally important is the willingness to work day-to-day issues with Safety, Environmental, Construction, Production and Maintenance in a collaborative manner. We are looking for someone who can anticipate and challenge situations, use critical thinking to develop economic analyses and marginal evaluations, solve problems, remove roadblocks, and make sound recommendations.
