Project Engineer – Investment Project (Ranua, Finland)

Company Description 

Reduciner is a Finnish deep-tech startup focused on carbon dioxide capture and utilization technologies that support the circular economy. By converting CO₂ emissions into valuable raw materials such as renewable carbon monoxide (CO), Reduciner enables the production of synthetic fuels and chemicals for a wide range of industrial applications. The process also generates high-quality activated carbon as a valuable co-product, further enhancing overall resource efficiency. Reduciner plays an important role in accelerating the transition toward a low-carbon and sustainable industrial future. 

Reduciner is building a first-of-its-kind continuous industrial process in Ranua, based on proprietary CO₂ reduction technology. In this process, carbon dioxide is converted into CO-rich synthesis gas using biochar, while high-value activated carbon is produced as a co-product. 

As a Project Engineer, you will be part of a investment project, supporting the journey from engineering and design to full-scale industrial implementation and commissioning. 

Your Mission 

As Project Engineer, you will support the Project Manager in delivering a industrial investment project. You will work at the interface of engineering, procurement, and site execution, ensuring that technical design, implementation, and commissioning activities are carried out efficiently, safely, and according to specifications. 

Key Responsibilities 

• Support the planning and execution of the full project lifecycle 

• Contribute to technical engineering coordination and design review 

• Follow up on project schedule, technical quality, and execution progress

• Supervision of the project safety

• Support procurement activities and supplier coordination 

• Act as a link between engineering teams, suppliers, and site execution 

• Support commissioning preparation and execution together with the technical team 

• Participate in risk identification and technical problem-solving

Growth Opportunity
