Job Description

The control and protection (C&P) systems at the heart of high-voltage direct current (HVDC) and grid stability technologies don't manage themselves, they need someone who can see the full picture: technical depth, product strategy, and the market forces shaping how the world generates and moves energy.

Key Responsibilities

Define and drive the product roadmap for C&P systems across transmission and grid stability solutions, including HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) and FACTS (Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems) applications. Owning priorities, investment direction, and long-term portfolio strategy.
Functionally guide a team of product owners across C&P algorithms for VSC (Voltage Source Converter) and LCC (Line Commutated Converter) technologies, control and protection platforms, and converter electronics and firmware, ensuring architectural cohesion across the full system.
Drive architectural decisions for real-time industrial C&P systems, balancing performance, scalability, modularity, and serviceability from initial requirements through to release and lifecycle retirement.
Translate customer needs, market trends, and evolving grid requirements into clear product priorities. Partnering with engineering, system architecture, research and development, and commercial teams to keep product direction aligned and well-evidenced.
Oversee product-level requirements, gate reviews, design specifications, and test plans to ensure delivered solutions meet technical and business standards and that intellectual property (IP) is identified, captured, and protected throughout.
Build external relationships with GE Vernova businesses, research centres, academic institutions, clients, and suppliers, and represent the business in relevant industry working groups and standards discussions.
Mentor and develop talent within the C&P and product management community, contributing to a culture of technical rigour and continuous learning.
You are a technically grounded product leader who can move between detailed systems thinking and strategic portfolio decisions and bring others with you.
