Job description

Overview

Senior engineer serving as the technical authority for gas turbine combustion operability and trip troubleshooting. The role translates thermodynamic data, transient logs, and flame sensor signals into customer recommendations and fleet reliability actions.

What you'll do

Own combustion-system operability diagnostics, including DLN tuning, flame dynamics, hardware health, and trip logic.
Lead root cause analyses for combustion instability, flame-out, ignition failure, and fuel-system anomalies.
Advise customers during forced outages and trip events to reduce restart delays and repeat trips.
Mentor M&D engineers on trip logs, transient data, and combustion-system signals.
Define requirements and validate algorithms for flame monitoring and pressure pulsation analysis.
Lead investigations with Product Services and Design Engineering to influence tuning and reliability actions.

What you'll need

Minimum 10 years of technical experience focused on gas turbine combustion systems, fuel delivery, and troubleshooting.
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, or Chemical Engineering, or equivalent.
Experience performing RCAs on combustion-related events.
Experience interfacing with customer site personnel during outage or trip-recovery events.
Advanced proficiency with high-speed data, PLC trip logs, MarkVie Controller, and combustion monitoring platforms.
Ability to present technical risk assessments and post-trip analysis reports.

Nice to have

Ability to connect combustion physics and thermodynamics with digital signal representation.
Understanding of combustion settings' effects on turbine performance, emissions, and hardware lifespan.
Experience influencing stakeholders in a global matrixed environment.
Lean continuous-improvement mindset.
