Our client has recently acquired a groundbreaking technology property and is in the exciting start-up phase. They are assembling a dedicated team and resources to bring innovative products to market and are looking for a VP of Engineering/Technology to join this new venture! The focus is on enhancing water and energy sustainability.
The initial emphasis will be on their patented water recovery system, known as ALI, which addresses the significant issue of water loss due to evaporation in cooling towers-an overlooked problem that results in over 5 billion gallons of water lost daily. ALI uses a system of HVAC ductwork positioned over a cooling tower fan to channel humid air into an electric field and vapor-liquid separator, facilitating condensation and enabling the recovery of substantial amounts of evaporated moisture.
Candidates must hold a Master's degree in Engineering, preferably in Fluid Mechanics or Process Engineering, along with 10+ years of experience in Engineering and Technology development. Experience in establishing manufacturing capabilities for new products and leading engineering teams is essential. Candidates with HVAC and cooling tower technology experience will be particularly well-suited for this role
