Job Description

The HQ Global Process Engineering Authority (GPEA) for Discrete Manufacturing & Material Shaping is the enterprise-wide architect for GE Vernova’s geometric component creation framework, supporting Power, Wind, and Electrification across +130 manufacturing facilities.

Key Responsibilities

Standards Governance: Synthesize, author, and govern the 1P1P standards using existing templates (e.g., Global Technical Equipment Specifications (TES), Manufacturing Process Standards (MPS), Automation Process Standards (APS), Request for Quote (RFQ), etc.) for all Shaping and Machining subclasses.
Geometric Process Optimization: Define the technical standards for the transition from raw material forming (Forming, Sectioning) to subtractive machining (Mill&Drill, Turn, Broach, Grind, EDM, Laser) to ensure a high-efficiency manufacturing flow.
Locked Configuration Management: Evaluate successful business-level innovations in tool-path optimization or near-net-shape forming and codify them into Locked Configurations to enable rapid enterprise-wide deployment and capital efficiency.
Geometric Precision Standards: Establish and enforce equipment capability standards to ensure new assets across the +130 facilities are capable of meeting the tightest tolerances required for next-generation Vernova products.
Advanced Technology Integration: Architect the enterprise strategy for reducing material waste and optimizing advanced cutting-tool technologies to reduce cycle time while maintaining strict design compliance.
SQDC Orchestration: Collaborate with Business GPELs and Factory LPEAs to translate machining and forming data into measurable improvements in Safety (Ergonomics), Quality (Cpk), Delivery (Cycle Time), and Cost (Capital Avoidance).
P&E Strategic Authority: Act as the final technical authority for enterprise-wide shaping and machining investments, ensuring alignment with the 1P1P global taxonomy.
Ensure compliance with industry safety and regulatory standards throughout the development and deployment process.
Stay up-to-date with advancements in advanced CNC manufacturing & automation technologies.
Provide technical support, leadership and coaching to a Global team of regional experts to operationalize new equipment standards, processes and systems.
