Job description

Do you enjoy designing and integrating complex auxiliary systems for turbomachinery upgrades and energy solutions? Can you solve advanced system engineering challenges using simulation, process design, and cross-functional collaboration?

Partner with the best

Baker Hughes stands as a leading global energy‑technology company, delivering innovative solutions that make energy safer, cleaner, and more efficient across the entire value chain. Operating in more than 120 countries, the company blends deep industrial expertise with advanced engineering and digital technologies to support energy production, transformation, and decarbonization. With over a century of heritage, Baker Hughes partners with customers in oil and gas, industrial sectors, and emerging energy markets to accelerate progress toward a more sustainable energy future.

Fuel your passion

The Senior Systems and Instrumentation Design Engineer oversees system definition (P&ID) and process integration for all the Upgrades solutions related with the legacy products (Gas Turbines, Steam Turbines, Centrifugal Compressors and Turboexpanders) required by the Baker Hughes Service organization, as well as for the new emerging Climate Technology Solutions.

You will integrate new design with actual configuration at site, with the aim of efficiency and availability improvement and life extension of existing machines. You will cover all the milestones based on customers’ contracts or foreseen by a new product development program: basic and detailed design development, verification phases, procurement goals, testing/validation accomplishments up to the site installation support.

As a Senior Systems and Instrumentation Design Engineer, you will be responsible for:

• Being in charge for the system design of auxiliaries for all the Upgrades solutions (such as lube oil, hydraulic oil, control oil, water cooling, fuel gas, liquid fuel, seal gas, ventilation, gas detection, fire protection systems...) in terms of process definition, items and instrumentation selections and installation
• Attending site surveys to define new supply and integrate it in existing plant; reverse engineering mind‑set is necessary;
• Developing predictive system design through modeling and numerical automation (Matlab/Simulink, FlowMaster, Hysis) to foresee transient behaviors and define high level control logic;
• Executing the design, analysis or evaluation of assigned projects using engineering practices adhering to business standards, practices, procedures and product/program requirements.
• Interacting with multiple internal interfaces such as ITO Team, Project Engineering, Project Manager, Other disciplines’ Design Engineers, Testing cell, Procurement dept., Quality Org., Manufacturing dept. and Service business;
• Interacting with several external interfaces like Customers and Suppliers demonstrating teamwork attitudes to maximize proficiency as well as reporting projects KPI and drive proactive Quality initiatives
• Providing technical leadership to activities related with the assigned project and coordinate/control the activities performed by external engineering; being also responsible for engineering hour’s budget management maximizing both internal/external productivity;
• Demonstrating inclusiveness, social conscience, inclination to sustain team members, ability to remain objective and stay tuned to immediate environment;

To be successful in this role you will:

• Have a Master's degree or PhD in Mechanical, Chemical, Aerospace, Aeronautical Engineering, or equivalent
• Have experience in an Oil & Gas or broader energy engineering environment
• Have strong knowledge of fluid systems and experience with computational analysis tools (e.g., Hysys, FlowMaster, Matlab/Simulink or similar)
• Demonstrate solid problem-solving, analytical thinking, and process improvement skills
• Have strong interpersonal and communication skills, with fluency in English
• Show the ability to work across functions and manage multiple interfaces in a complex engineering environment
• Demonstrate openness to innovation and ability to drive continuous improvement and cultural change
• Have familiarity with Six Sigma, Green Belt certification, or Root Cause Analysis methodologies as a plus
