## Description

Shell is seeking an Asset Engineer to join its team in Monaca, Pennsylvania.

The Asset Engineer provides front-line technical and equipment support for the Production Unit (PU), helping ensure safe, reliable, and efficient operation of the asset. The role is embedded within the PU technical team, which translates operational priorities into structured technical work and manages troubleshooting, threat resolution, and operational improvement activities focused on the unit’s most critical reliability, safety, and optimization needs.

This role will bring a strong field presence and broad equipment perspective, working closely with Operations and other technical resources to identify emerging equipment issues, understand their operational impact, support near-term resolution, and escalate issues requiring deeper technical expertise.

**Responsibilities**

- Provide day-to-day equipment engineering support to the Production Unit, maintaining close engagement with Operations and the frontline technical team

- Monitor equipment condition and performance, identify developing reliability or integrity concerns, and support troubleshooting of near-term equipment issues

- Maintain a regular field presence to understand equipment condition, changing operating conditions, and potential safety or environmental concerns

- Support development of practical mitigation plans for on-stream equipment issues, engaging the appropriate discipline engineers when specialized engineering is required

- Monitor upcoming inspection and equipment integrity requirements and identify obstacles that could affect near-term compliance or execution

- Provide operating and equipment context to Site Technical when issues exceed PU capability and require advanced troubleshooting, root cause analysis, or an engineered solution

- Support Management of Change activities by providing the unit requirements, operating context, and equipment knowledge needed to define safe and effective changes

**Requirements**

- Must have legal authorization to work in the US on a full-time basis for anyone other than current employer

- Bachelor’s degree in an engineering discipline relevant to industrial asset or equipment support

- At least 5 years of relevant experience

- Strong understanding of equipment reliability, mechanical integrity, troubleshooting, and safe operation in a manufacturing or process environment

- Ability to recognize developing equipment problems, assess technical risk, and translate observations and data into practical recommendations

- Strong field orientation and willingness to spend time where the equipment and work are located

- Ability to work effectively across engineering disciplines rather than approaching every issue through a single-discipline lens

- Demonstrated analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to make sound technical judgments using incomplete or evolving information

- Working knowledge of equipment integrity, reliability, Management of Change, technical assurance, and risk-management principles

- Ability to communicate technical issues clearly to Operations, Maintenance, engineering specialists, and leadership

- Strong collaboration and influencing skills, with the ability to bring multiple disciplines together around safe, practical solutions

- Ability to balance immediate operational needs with equipment integrity and reliability considerations

- A proactive mindset, curiosity about how equipment performs and fails, and a commitment to identifying issues before they become operational events

**What we offer**

- The base salary range for this position is $124,000 - $186,000 per year

- Insurance coverage options, including medical, dental, vision coverage, life Insurance, Business Travel Accident Insurance, and Occupational Accidental Death Benefit programs

- Participation in a company pension plan and a 401(k) plan

- Paid leave, including up to 6 weeks of paid vacation time, up to 11 paid holidays, and parental leave offering 16 weeks of paid leave for birthing parents, and 8 weeks of paid leave for non-birthing parents
