Fredericton, People Reach Consulting

Does the thought of being part of a team developing new energy technologies that will significantly contribute to decreasing greenhouse gases and limiting man-made climate change appeal to you? Do you have a passion for instrumental analytical techniques and methods development? Do you have a proven track record of successfully operating and maintaining bench and pilot scale plasma reactor systems for natural gas pyrolysis? Do you enjoy working in a strong team environment where your efforts are recognized and appreciated and your contributions will make a real difference to the world we live in? If you answered yes to these questions, we would like to hear from you.

THE COMPANY
Atlantic Hydrogen Inc. (http://www.ah2inc.com) is a privately owned environmental technology company producing energy and environmental solutions. Atlantic Hydrogen Inc. (AHI) has developed a patented CarbonSaver™ plasma technology that removes some of the carbon from natural gas pre-combustion. Not only does that reduce carbon dioxide output, the hydrogen freed by the process improves the efficiency of the devices that burn it.

This is a revolutionary technology that promotes Greenhouse Gas reduction and the fight against man-made climate change since it produces hydrogen without generating massive amounts of the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide, as do most industrial hydrogen production processes. It represents a potential for the next generation of clean energy.

AHI has a seasoned senior management team that includes the former CEO and President of Unisys Canada and a highly experienced research team with a proven track record in plasma processing and separation of gases.

THE OPPORTUNITY
You will work closely with our team of researchers and engineers supporting the day-to-day operations in a pilot scale chemical reactor system producing hydrogen and carbon from natural gas using plasma chemistry. A key responsibility of the role is to operate and maintain our bench and pilot scale plasma reactor systems for natural gas pyrolysis. You will also provide analytical support for experiments performed on the experimental reactor. You will write reports on a regular basis and you will also have the opportunity to become very familiar with gas handling and flow control equipment.

THE REQUIREMENTS
Our ideal candidate has completed a B.Sc. or a chemical technologist’s diploma from a recognized institution and has several years of laboratory experience. Strong experience with instrumental analytical techniques and methods development is also required, as is familiarity with GC/MS and other routine analytical tools. Hands-on experience with pilot scale operations and electronic equipment and components, and the ability to troubleshoot electronic equipment is a definite asset.

THE REWARDS
Atlantic Hydrogen Inc. is committed to providing its’ employees with a good home/work life balance, a very good salary and benefits package including performance bonuses and stock options, and a flexible, collaborative team environment with a group of dedicated and talented individuals committed to the success of the CarbonSaver™ technology.

THE LOCATION
Atlantic Hydrogen Inc.’s offices are located in Fredericton, a beautiful, historic city with two topnotch universities, many cultural activities (including an excellent jazz festival), plenty of recreational facilities and activities, beautiful parks and an extensive network of walking trails. Fredericton is well recognized for its exceptional quality of life. It also has a vibrant and rapidly expanding knowledge industry sector.
