Full job description

A Snapshot of Your Day

Every day is different and every task offers something new to learn! On the one hand, R&D projects give the opportunity to focus several months on one turbine blade and its damage mechanisms. The Repair Lifing Engineer will analyze, simulate, re-design and optimize the blade; from home, at the office or occasionally directly on the shop floor. On the other hand, the phone rings and a power plant customer needs a decision for their gas turbine within a few hours. But no matter what it is, you’re never alone, there is always a motivated, experienced and supportive international team at your side!

How You’ll Make an Impact

  • Analyze complex gas turbine blades, vanes and additional parts based on real operation data and inspection findings; evaluate the capabilities of service exposed turbine parts to ensure a reliable power plant operation for our customers.

  • Simulate multiple damage mechanisms using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and additional tools to determine the remaining useful life of components; evaluate the impact and applicability of a range of repair methods on component life.

  • Lead interdisciplinary small teams to develop improved designs with high business impact; update 3D CAD models, drawings and product definitions for a quick implementation of ideas.

  • Validate and enhance analysis methodology and design philosophies to generate significant cost savings in existing long-term service contracts.

  • Determine and manage risks based on statistical models; support customer meetings with prior experience and knowledge.

What You Bring

  • Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering or related field (ideally with a focus on the simulation of mechanical integrity) required, and 8+ years of experience.

  • Distinct analytical skills and an interest to break new ground.

  • Proficiency in creating CAD models, analyzing FEA models, ideally familiar with fracture mechanics and programming languages.

  • Project management experience.

  • Effective communication skills, competent in collaborating with teams locally and virtually (around the globe).

  • Applicants must be legally authorized for employment in the United States without need for current or future employer-sponsored work authorization. Siemens Energy employees with current visa sponsorship may be eligible for internal transfers.
