Descrizione del lavoro

Position: Mechanical Design Engineer

Location: Jupiter, FL.

Status: Salary Exempt

JOB SUMMARY

Working within a multi-disciplinary team, the mechanical design engineer will be responsible for the design and development of gas turbine (GT) auxiliaries such as inlet bleed heat and exhaust bleed manifolds and piping as well as GT fuel control skids, combustion, and cooling components in support of combustion systems conversions and upgrades.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Design Industrial Gas Turbine (IGT) auxiliaries and components, assemblies and systems to meet fit, form and functional requirements.
• Interface with other technical disciplines such as Aerothermal, Structural, and Manufacturing Engineering to develop designs that meet all applicable criteria.
• Analyze components to ensure parts maintain appropriate stress levels, meet life requirements and design criteria. Select materials, coatings, and weld fillers as needed for the applicable temperature and stress levels.
• Review and understand OEM component material, design features, and cooling configurations to understand design intent. Compare various designs between different engines (based on manufacturer), different versions (based on design evolution over time), and different part numbers with the goal of identifying most effective solutions.
• Assist Drafting, Configuration Management and Field Service groups with part numbers, assembly numbers, system level configurations, and other configuration related activities for both PSM and OEM hardware.
• Provide technical information and system level configurations for PSM’s upgrade systems to commercial team and customers. Facilitate customized solutions based on specific customer engine configurations. Conduct reviews of relevant data such as components and performance of specific upgrades with internal and external teams.
• Work across departments with Supply Chain, Field Service and Commercial Teams for technical support as requested. Support roles include technical responsibility for troubleshooting at vendors and customers sites as necessary.
• Visit power plants and customer sites during outages in support of the Field Service group. Support initial installation of PSM hardware, review of engine run hardware for field durability issues and of documentation of various configurations.
• Support root cause analysis and troubleshooting for engine failures or durability shortfalls.
• Assess needs and identify critical path schedules for design, manufacturing and procurement activities.
• Create, lead and/or deliver presentations to internal and external clients.
• Participate in internal discipline related meetings and training sessions, as well as external technical conferences and customer events.
• Mentor and train interns and less experienced peers as required.
• Travel up to 15% to support customer outages and vendor related activities.
• Other duties as assigned.
