Your new role – challenging and future-oriented
WHRS Power Manager is responsible for engineering coordination, project execution, commissioning, operation, and performance optimization of Waste Heat Recovery System (WHRS) based power plants. The role ensures seamless integration of WHRS with the host industrial process, maximizing power generation from waste heat while improving energy efficiency and supporting sustainability targets.
Key Responsibilities
Engineering & Design
Evaluate process flow diagrams, waste heat sources, and WHRS integration feasibility for new or existing plants.
Analyze heat balance and determine usable waste heat potential (especially from preheater & cooler gases in cement plants).
Review WHRS layout, including boilers, HRSGs, ducts, turbines, auxiliaries, and equipment specifications.
Ensure equipment selection that supports variations in gas temperature, moisture, and flow.
Commissioning & Start up
Lead pre commissioning, commissioning, testing, synchronization, and reliability runs of WHRS boilers, turbines, and auxiliaries.
Ensure safe execution of steam blowing, turbine roll-up, logic checks, interlocks, and grid integration.
Operations & Performance Monitoring
Monitor WHRS operation using SCADA/DCS, ensuring real time optimization and predictive maintenance.
Analyze process fluctuations (e.g., waste gas temperature, kiln load variations) to maintain stable power generation.
Drive improvements to maximize heat recovery efficiency and minimize auxiliary consumption.
Compliance & Sustainability
emissions.
Prepare regulatory documents, including safety protocols, audit reports, and statutory submissions.
We don’t need superheroes, just super minds:
Qualification and Experience
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical / Power Engineering or related discipline.
15-20 Years of experience in WHRS, power plant systems, cement/steel industry utilities, or steam-cycle engineering.
Hands-on experience in commissioning or operating WHRS, biomass boilers or turbines preferred.
Strong understanding of thermodynamics, heat transfer, steam systems, WHRS/boiler design.
Knowledge of WHRS types such as AQC & PH Boilers in cement plants.
Familiarity with EPC/EPCM project frameworks, safety standards, and energy audit processes.
Strong leadership across cross functional teams.
Analytical decision-making and problem-solving skills.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities.

How we calculate "similar"
No black box, no LLM guesswork: a deterministic score built from four normalized attributes. Here's this role's own peer group at different match levels, so you can see the mechanism, not just the result.
Every comparison starts from the same 100-point budget: 25 for working in the same function, 40 for the same therapeutic area, 20 for the same or adjacent seniority, 15 for the same country. A dimension we can't confirm on both sides contributes nothing, never a guess, never a free pass.
0 points, never a partial guess. A role we know almost nothing about beyond its function bottoms out at 25%; it never inflates to 100% just because there's little to compare against. Seniority uses a defined ladder (Associate → Manager → Associate Director → Senior → Principal → Director → Senior Director → Executive/VP) so "Director" and "Senior Director" count as adjacent, but "Director" and "Executive/VP" do not.
