About this role

The Aeroderivative Performance & Operability Engineering team is a critical pillar within the Aeroderivative Engineering organization. It operates at the intersection of engineering, commercial, and digital domains, covering project execution and model development for thermodynamic cycle models and operability aspects like emissions, fuel flexibility, and controls.

As a Performance Engineer focused on cycle modeling, you will develop, maintain, and execute thermodynamic cycle models using NPSS. You will drive the lifecycle of these models, including creation, adjustment, validation, and application for Aeroderivative gas turbines.

You will work alongside experienced engineers on test plan development, field support, data integration, and model validation. The role involves managing operability models and acting as a technical expert in performance and operability for gas turbines.

Contribute to critical projects powering industries worldwide while building your career foundation in gas turbine performance engineering. Enable automation through APIs, scripts, and tools using Python, VBA, AI, and NPSS to streamline operations.

Requirements

Advanced experience in Engineering/Technology & Performance Engineering
Knowledge level comparable to a Bachelor's degree from an accredited university or college (or high school diploma with relevant experience)
Understanding of gas turbine thermodynamics, controls, emissions, and operability
Significant experience in Aeroderivative performance modeling, particularly in data reduction, status matching, and NPSS cycle model development
Demonstrated ability to think critically and creatively to analyze and resolve complex problems
Strong programming skills (e.g. Python, AI code assistants, C, etc.)

Responsibilities
