Job Description

The world's energy future depends on machines that can do more with less.

Key Responsibilities

Lead a global engineering team: Mentor and develop a cross-regional group of Steampath Engineers, enabling both their technical depth and long-term career growth across new unit requisition and service project streams.
Own steampath design from concept to field: Drive the full design lifecycle for stationary (nozzle) and rotating (bucket/blade) blading and rotor calculations on combined-cycle steam turbine requisition projects, from conceptual design through field validation using GE Vernova's Tollgate Process.
Ensure design integrity and quality: Lead and review engineering analyses to confirm robust designs that meet all critical-to-quality (CTQ) requirements — applying your expertise in mechanical design fundamentals, material behavior, fatigue life (low-cycle fatigue/high-cycle fatigue), creep, finite element analysis (FEA), and computational fluid dynamics (CFD).
Shape platform strategy and technology advancement: Collaborate with Product Line, Application Engineering, Product Service, and System Integration Leads (SILs) to drive steampath and shaftline platform strategy, including technology enhancements and product structuring.
Deliver with cross-functional excellence: Work seamlessly with Drafting, Sourcing, and Manufacturing teams to execute product lifecycle management (PLM) deliverables on time and with quality, while championing LEAN principles and continuous improvement.
Elevate the customer experience: Lead customer-interface improvement initiatives, enhance installation and constructability documentation, and reduce project cycle time through higher-quality, more usable engineering outputs.

Requirements

You are a seasoned steam turbine engineer who combines deep technical mastery with the confidence to lead a global team and the curiosity to keep pushing what's possible.
Master's degree in an Engineering discipline, or completion of GE Vernova's Edison Engineering Development Program
Experience in steam turbine rotating and stationary component design (buckets, blades, design processes, and procedures)
Familiarity with full manufacturing processes for power generation equipment, including forgings, machining, and factory assembly/testing
Proficiency in a second language such as German, French, Spanish, or Polish
Strong project leadership skills with the ability to manage competing priorities across multiple simultaneous workstreams
