Technicien Instrumentation et Contrôle Multisite

Une nouvelle ère pour l’industrie de l’aluminium – ELYSIS 

Aluminium sans carbone 

La technologie ELYSIS™ représente la plus grande avancée dans l’industrie de l’aluminium depuis 1886. Des efforts sont présentement déployés afin de perfectionner cette nouvelle façon révolutionnaire de produire de l’aluminium, qui élimine le dioxyde de carbone et toutes les autres émissions de gaz à effet de serre du procédé conventionnel d’électrolyse. 

Le procédé ELYSIS élimine l’utilisation d’anodes de carbone, en les remplaçant par des matériaux brevetés. En tant que premier procédé industriel qui émet de l’oxygène comme sous-produit, il a le potentiel de transformer toute l’industrie. 

En 2018, deux producteurs d’aluminium de calibre international, Alcoa et Rio Tinto, ont uni leurs forces afin de créer la coentreprise ELYSIS avec le gouvernement du Québec. Bénéficiant du soutien du gouvernement du Canada et d’Apple, la technologie progresse et elle est actuellement conçue pour être utilisée aussi bien dans des projets de construction que de modernisation d’alumineries. 

ELYSIS a son siège social à Montréal, avec des centres de recherche et de développement à Alma et à Jonquière, au Québec (Canada), ainsi qu’à New Kensington, en Pennsylvanie (États-Unis) et en France. 

Du métal de qualité commerciale produit par ELYSIS durant le processus de R et D est déjà utilisé par Apple dans un éventail de produits (comme le MacBook Pro 16 po et l’iPhone SE), par AB InBev (canettes) et par Audi (roues du e-tron GT, fabriquées par le RONAL Group).

Multisite Instrumentation and Control Technician

A New Era for the Aluminium Industry — ELYSIS 

Carbon Free Aluminium 

The ELYSIS™ technology is the greatest breakthrough in the aluminium industry since its beginnings in 1886. Work is underway now to further develop this revolutionary new way to produce aluminium, eliminating carbon dioxide and all other greenhouse gas emissions from the traditional smelting process. 

The ELYSIS process eliminates the use of carbon anodes, replacing those with proprietary materials. It is the first industrial process that emits oxygen as its by-product and has the potential to transform an entire industry. 

In 2018, two international aluminium producers, Alcoa and Rio Tinto, came together to form the ELYSIS joint venture with the provincial government of Québec. With support from the Canadian Government and Apple, the technology is progressing and is currently being designed to support the construction of new smelters or retrofits. 

ELYSIS is headquartered in Montréal, with Technology Research & Development locations in Alma, Québec, (Canada), in Jonquière, Québec, (Canada), in New Kensington, Pennsylvania, (United States), and in France. 

Commercial quality metal produced by ELYSIS during the ongoing R&D process is already being used by Apple in a variety of products (The 16-inch MacBook Pro and the iPhone SE); Ab InBEV (cans) and Audi (e-tron GT wheels produced by the RONAL Group). 

Join the ELYSIS team in this exciting work.

About the position  

ELYIS is currently seeking an instrumentation & control technician for their sites located in the Saguenay Lac St-Jean region.

Key activities and responsibilities: 

  • Apply the organization’s Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) principles by adopting a positive attitude that us zero by choice.
  • Ensure the proper functioning of the plant’s various equipment in a preventive maintenance process and in a team-oriented work environment.
  • Actively participate in problem-solving as well as technology improvement strategies with the process team.
  • Modify and analyze various programs of the PLC control system, HMI, and others (Rockwell Automation family).

About you 

  • Stand out with an uncompromising commitment to working safely.
  • Have a DEC in Electrical Engineering Technology Automation and Control or Electrodynamics or any other combination of relevant studies or experience.
  • A minimum of 7 years of experience in electrical maintenance, commissioning/start-up, and PLC programming.
  • Have a C license is an asset.
  • Demonstrate a high level of commitment and interest in high technology.
  • Knowledge in aluminum operations is an asset.
  • Experience in manufacturing networking and IT infrastructure is an asset.
  • Fluency in written and spoken French and basic knowledge of English. ELYSIS is a global company, and the duties of this position may require collaboration with colleagues, teams or partners based outside Québec.

About Us 

An unprecedented world-class partnership of two major aluminium industry pioneers – Alcoa and Rio Tinto – led to the 2018 formation of ELYSIS. Through this joint venture with the government of Québec, ELYSIS is working to scale up this technology so it can be fully commercialized. 

The ELYSIS™ technology eliminates all direct greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the aluminium smelting process and is the first industrial process that emits oxygen as its by-product. 

ELYSIS has demonstrated production of commercial purity aluminium for end users ranging from Apple to Audi and is being designed for the construction of new smelters or to retrofit existing ones. 

The ELYSIS™ technology also brings additional advantages, reducing the operating cost of a smelter and boosting metal production from the same size-smelting cell. 

About the Location 

ELYSIS is a Canadian company headquartered in Montreal, Quebec. It also has facilities in Alma and Jonquière, Quebec. At the Alma site, efforts to eliminate all direct greenhouse gas emissions from the aluminum electrolysis process made significant progress in June 2021, with the construction of the first industrial-scale prototype cells using inert anode technology. At the Jonquière site, the team works on perfecting the technology at the ELYSIS Research and Development Centre, located within Rio Tinto’s Jonquière Complex. 

Position based in Saguenay: The position will be required to work at both the Alma and Jonquière sites.

Be Part of an Unprecedented Partnership 

At ELYSIS we are committed to an inclusive environment where people feel comfortable to be themselves. We want our people to feel that all voices are heard, all cultures respected and that a variety of perspectives are not only welcome — they are essential to success of the unprecedented partnership that ELYSIS is. We treat each other respectfully, fairly, compassionately and with dignity regardless of race, gender, nationality, ethnic origin, religion, age, sexual orientation, or anything else that makes us different. At ELYSIS, we welcome and encourage applications from Indigenous people, women, members of the LGBTQ2S+ community, older workers, people with disabilities and representatives of diverse backgrounds.
