OxEon Energy is pioneering advanced energy conversion systems that transform CO₂ and renewable feedstocks into liquid fuels, hydrogen, and other critical products. Our integrated technology platform—spanning solid oxide electrolysis, plasma reforming, and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis—is enabling the next generation of sustainable fuel production. We are now advancing a first-of-its-kind Biogas-to-Liquids industrial pilot plant and scaling toward commercial deployment.

The Senior Program Manager will lead the execution of OxEon Energy’s Biogas-to-Liquids industrial pilot plant program, overseeing planning, development, construction, commissioning, and technology maturation activities. This individual will serve as the primary interface between OxEon’s internal engineering and manufacturing teams, external customers, EPC partners, and key stakeholders. The role is accountable for schedule, budget, risk, technical coordination, and successful program delivery.

This position is critical to OxEon’s commercialization pathway and requires hands-on experience managing large-scale pilot or demonstration plants in the oil & gas, petrochemical, power, or renewable energy sectors.
