Key Responsibilities :

Whole‑process Control of Production Materials and Metal Balance Management Be responsible for on‑site data collection, ledger statistics and full‑process tracking management of raw materials, auxiliary materials, fuels, intermediate materials and finished products in the smelter. Verify data of furnace feed, output, loss and inventory to ensure authentic, accurate and traceable production data. 

On‑site Process Inspection, Troubleshooting and Performance Improvement Carry out daily patrol inspection on the operating status of each process in the smelter and record key process parameters. Proactively identify issues including production bottlenecks, process abnormalities, energy waste, metal loss, non‑standard operations and safety risks, and discover on‑site improvement opportunities.

Production Data Analysis and Technical Report Generation Compile production and technical data, conduct analysis on metal balance, energy consumption, material loss as well as output‑quality performance, and prepare production ledgers and analysis reports. Summarize root causes of production abnormalities to provide technical support for production adjustment, process optimization and management decision‑making.

Qualifications :

Bachelor Degree's major in Metallurgical Engineering, Mineral Processing, Materials Engineering or other related disciplines.

Minimum 2 years of on-site process technical experience in nickel smelting (RKEF process preferred) or pyrometallurgy. Familiar with RKEF rotary kiln-submerged arc furnace smelting flow, metal balance accounting and material management. Experience in smelter process improvement and production data analysis is preferred. 

Familiar with basic principles of pyrometallurgy and key parameter control of each RKEF process (drying, pre-reduction, SAF smelting, ferronickel production).

Able to collect and maintain data & ledgers of smelting raw materials, fuels and finished products, independently conduct metal balance, coal/energy consumption calculation and analysis.

Capable of on-site process patrol, identify process abnormalities, metal loss and energy waste, and propose process improvement suggestions

Able to read process flow diagrams, proficient in Excel for production data processing and technical report preparation.

Familiar with smelting safety operation procedures and on-site hazard identification.

Able to speak Mandarin will be an advantage
