Commissioning Lead

• Execute pre-commissioning and commissioning activities for Mantel's first-of-a-kind molten-salt carbon capture demonstration system, including walkdowns, loop checks, interlock verification, flushing, leak testing, and startup sequencing.
• Manage day-to-day on-site activities with contractors, trades, and host-site operations personnel to keep work moving safely and on schedule.
• Maintain accurate commissioning records, including completed procedures, punch lists, test results, and field observations, and feed lessons learned back to the engineering team.
• Ensure all work complies with site safety requirements, LOTO procedures, and Mantel's operating standards, participating in pre-job safety briefings and hazard assessments.

This role directly enables the successful deployment of a first-of-a-kind high-temperature molten-salt carbon capture system, which can significantly reduce industrial CO2 emissions and help achieve net-zero targets by 2050.

• 7+ years of hands-on experience in industrial plant commissioning, construction, or operations.
• Experience with at least one plant startup, including pre-commissioning checks, punch lists, and coordination.
• Comfortable working in industrial environments (heat, noise, PPE, shift schedules) and with tight coordination with trades.
• Careful, methodical executor who follows procedures, documents everything, and communicates clearly.

• Highly competitive pay based on experience, including equity.
• 90% subsidized medical and dental healthcare coverage for employees, 50% for dependents (full extended benefits in Canada).
• Unlimited vacation policy, mental health personal days, generous sick leave, plus a week-long winter break.
• Health/Fitness and cell phone stipend, paid parental leave.

Mantel is developing the first molten-salt-based carbon capture technology designed to operate at high temperatures inside boilers, kilns, and furnaces, enabling efficient carbon capture to reduce emissions and achieve net-negative emissions.
