Job Description
Process Engineers on the Process Engineering team are key partners for customers in the North American market. They are creative technical leaders who support the successful sale, engineering, commissioning, and operation of complete system solutions. To deliver winning solutions, they apply deep technical knowledge of our solutions and technologies combined with an understanding of the customer’s process, the market, regulations, and our competitors to continually balance technical risk with commercial viability.
On complex flow sheets with multiple unit processes, a Process Engineering Project Technical Leader - Microelectronics is included on the project to own the overall solution for our customer in collaboration with one or more Process Engineers with expertise in the various technologies used in the flow sheet. A Process Engineering Project Technical Leader - Microelectronics requires the abilities and expertise of a Process Engineer, and the technical, leadership, and communication skills of an Engineering Project Manager. The Process Engineering Project Technical Leader - Microelectronics requires domain expertise to act as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) and technical point of contact in customer and internal communications. From a technical perspective, they have responsibility for the overall treatment solution including strategizing on the creation of that solution (safety factors, flow fluctuations, assumptions), identifying and managing the impacts that any given unit process will have on upstream/downstream unit processes as well as process risks, and owning the overall process flow diagram, accompanying flow and quality balance, and overall process guarantees. From a leadership perspective, they proactively communicate across the team of Process Engineers, manage the process deliverables (schedules, assignments), and represent Process Engineering in review meetings at the bidding and engineering stages. If process issues arise, they lead the troubleshooting effort and resolution.
As the focal point of the Process Team for projects, the Process Engineering Project Technical Leader - Microelectronics functions as a dual-path expert. Their time allocation is strategically divided into approximately 60% Communication, Organization, and Coordination, where they manage process deliverables, schedules, and cross-functional representation. The remaining approximately 40% is dedicated to Technical Expertise, acting as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) who owns the overall treatment solution, including process guarantees and the troubleshooting of complex issues.
The Process Engineering Project Technical Leader - Microelectronics for the Microelectronics market will lead proposals and projects in execution for our Microelectronics customers’ ultrapure water (UPW), wastewater, and reclaim treatment needs.
Key Characteristics:
- Leadership
- Customer focus and commercial mindset
- Analytical mindset
- Creativity
- Responsibility
- Collaboration
- Accountability
Duties and Responsibilities:
Microelectronics Project Technical Leaders lead the process design of ultrapure, wastewater, and reclaim treatment solutions for the Microelectronics industry.
Responsibilities will include:
- Align a team of Process Engineers working together on a flow sheet to a strategy (including influent design basis, safety factors, handling of flow variations, how to meet the customer’s needs, how to win against the competition), a list of deliverables, and a schedule, and ensure that all process deliverables meet quality and schedule for the project
- Lead the design of complete water, wastewater, or waste treatment solutions (flow sheet, unit processes, process parameters) that will meet the customer’s requirements for a given influent and required effluent stream qualities using various in house and industry design tools, acting as the leader for a team of Process Engineers providing technical expertise on specific portions of the overall flowsheet.
- Apply advanced treatment technologies including biological treatment, ammonia removal, solids separation, low- and high-pressure membrane treatment (ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, reverse osmosis - conventional and high-pH), ion exchange, UV treatment, and gas-transfer membrane processes to meet the stringent requirements specific to the microelectronics industry
- Own the overall Process Flow Diagram (PFD), associated flow tables or mass balance, and overall process guarantees, including management of the interconnections between unit processes and consideration of any impacts of one unit process on upstream or downstream unit processes, with input from the Process Engineers on the team.
- Engage in piloting and benchmarking and treatability studies as part of design, commissioning, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement of UPW treatment solutions
- Serve as a lead technical contact with our customers, building partnership relationships, and representing the team of Process Engineers working on the flow sheet together

Search Project Leader Jobs in IdahoProject Leader Jobs in Idaho: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies sponsor visas for project leaders in Idaho?
Micron Technology in Boise is among Idaho's most active H-1B sponsors, frequently hiring project leaders for semiconductor manufacturing and engineering programs. HP Inc. and Clearwater Analytics also have sponsorship histories for technical project leadership roles. Smaller software firms and agricultural technology companies in the Treasure Valley have sponsored project leaders as well, though less frequently than the larger employers.
Which visa types are most common for project leader roles in Idaho?
The H-1B is the most common visa for project leaders in Idaho, covering roles that require a bachelor's degree or higher in a directly related field such as engineering, computer science, or business management. Candidates from Canada or Mexico may qualify under the TN visa. Applicants with extraordinary achievement in their field may explore the O-1 visa, though it requires substantial documentation of recognition.
Which cities in Idaho have the most project leader sponsorship jobs?
Boise accounts for the majority of project leader sponsorship activity in Idaho, driven by its technology, financial software, and semiconductor industries. Nampa and Meridian, both part of the Treasure Valley metro, also see hiring from companies expanding out of downtown Boise. Idaho Falls has occasional openings tied to energy sector employers, including work connected to the Idaho National Laboratory.
How to find project leader visa sponsorship jobs in Idaho?
Migrate Mate filters job listings specifically by visa sponsorship availability, so you can browse project leader roles in Idaho without sorting through positions that don't sponsor. Given that Boise's tech and semiconductor sectors drive most sponsorship activity in the state, filtering by those industries on Migrate Mate helps narrow results to employers with demonstrated sponsorship histories for project leadership positions.
Are there any state-specific considerations for project leaders seeking sponsorship in Idaho?
Idaho does not have a state income tax for most wage earners at the federal level, but employers filing Labor Condition Applications must meet Department of Labor prevailing wage requirements specific to the Boise or Idaho Falls metropolitan areas. Project leaders coming through universities like Boise State University or University of Idaho on OPT have a natural pipeline into local tech employers, some of whom have established relationships with those institutions for STEM graduates.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored project leader jobs in Idaho?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
