About the role

Production engineering has always been limited by how much information one engineer can review, how many models they can maintain, and how many decisions they can make in a day. AI changes that constraint. Enfinite Technologies is building the intelligence layer for the next generation of oil & gas production operations: not another dashboard or set of alerts, but a new operating model in which engineers work alongside intelligent systems that continuously understand an asset, reason across engineering data and physics, identify what matters, and act within defined operational guardrails. We are hiring a Principal Production Engineer to work at the intersection of production engineering, field operations, AI, optimization, and product development. You will partner directly with leading upstream operators and work on technology deployed against real producing assets. Alongside our engineering and AI teams, you will encode production engineering knowledge, physics, and decision-making into intelligent software, directly shaping both our product and how production operations are performed. This is not a conventional production engineering role. You do not need to be an AI engineer, but you do need to be an exceptional production engineer who wants to help define what a production engineer, and a producing asset, looks like in an AI-native world.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
