Position: Senior Consultant

Location: Remote

Travel Required: Ohio and Indiana (4 to 5days in a Month)

Duration: Full Time

Role Summary

This role leads the organization's chemistry-driven burn planning transformation, combining deep expertise in waste chemistry and thermal treatment with AI-generated burn plan design and optimization. The Director owns the definition, governance, and continuous improvement of chemistry-based burn plans from waste profiling and compatibility, to feed composition, burn parameters, and closed-loop learning.

The role is accountable for ensuring that AI-generated burn plans are chemically sound, operationally feasible, safe, and value-optimizing, and are adopted across facilities.

Required Experience & Qualifications

  • MS or PhD in Chemistry or Chemical Engineering (process or thermal focus strongly preferred).
  • 10 12 years experience in waste management, hazardous waste, incineration, or thermal treatment operations.
  • Deep hands-on expertise in:
    • Waste chemistry and compatibility
    • Burn plan development and optimization
    • Thermal process control and emissions behaviour
  • Proven experience working with advanced analytics, AI/ML, or decision optimization systems (as a domain leader, not necessarily a coder).
  • Strong ability to translate chemical intuition into structured rules, constraints, and data models.

Success Measures

  • AI-generated burn plans adopted as the primary planning mechanism.
  • Measurable improvement in burn stability, throughput, and safety.
  • Reduced chemistry-related incidents and manual overrides.
  • Scalable burn planning framework deployed across facilities.
