Mechanical Engineer II

Who we are:

Electra isreinventing ironmaking from the ground upwitha breakthroughelectrochemical technology that produceshigh purityclean iron and critical co-minerals. With two operating pilots in Boulderanda new demonstration facilityunderwayin Jefferson Countywereon track to reach commercial scale by the end of the decade. Backed by over $300 million and strategic partnerships with global leaders across mining steel and big tech momentum is on our side.Recognized by Fast Company as a Most Innovative Company and a Next Big Thing in Tech and named one of TIMEs 100 Climate Leaderswerebuilding a company shaping the future of industry.Ifyourelooking to make an impact and join a teamthatsdriven focused and scaling we want to hear from you.

What you will do:

Electra is seeking a Mechanical Systems Engineer II to help develop and scale the next generation of clean iron this role you will design and support mechanical systems with ownership of defined components or subsystems within larger process systems across lab pilot demonstration and future commercial facilities.Youllwork closely with a highly collaborative team of process automation electrical and operations engineers to turn first-of-a-kind concepts into safe practical and scalable plant solutions. This is an exciting opportunity for an engineer who enjoys hands-on problem solving cross-functional teamwork and the challenge of shaping real industrial hardware in a fast-moving climate technology company.

Responsibilities include:

• Design and support mechanical systems and equipment within defined subsystems for Electras process utility slurrysolidshandling and plant infrastructure systems.
• Develop layouts general arrangements piping details equipment lists and drawing packages for skids pilot systems plant tie-ins and facility projects.
• Independently select and specify mechanical equipment within assigned scope such as pumps tanks valves piping filters heat exchangers supports and material handling equipment.
• Translate process flow diagrams P&IDs and testobjectivesinto practical mechanical designs for installation operation and scale-up.
• Partner with process automation electrical structural operations maintenance EHS technicians vendors and contractors to deliver integrated plant solutions.
• Lead and support fabrication installation commissioning troubleshooting and field updates within defined scope for pilot and plant equipment.
• Review vendor quotes technical submittals and fabrication details to ensure selected solutions meet project needs and operating requirements.
• Create andmaintain3D models mechanical drawings and controlled design documentation using CAD and standard engineering tools.
• Contribute to design reviews hazard reviews lessons learned and continuous improvement of mechanical design standards and practices.
• Follow all workplace health safety and environmental procedures and perform other duties as assigned.

What we need you to bring to the team:

• Bachelors degree in mechanical or related engineering discipline
