Gas Turbine Hot Gas Path Design Engineer – Analysis & Services Focus


Role Overview:
As a Hot Gas Path (HGP) Design Engineer within our Fleet Engineering team, you will play a critical role in maintaining the reliability and availability of our global gas turbine fleet. You will serve as a technical expert responsible for the integrity of turbine components through advanced analytical methods and rapid, data-driven decision-making.

 

 

 

Key Responsibilities Include:

 

*Advanced Structural Analysis: Develop and execute high-fidelity finite element models (FEM) to evaluate GT hardware under complex thermal and mechanical boundary conditions.

 

* Life Predictions: Perform lifing analyses, including Low/High Cycle Fatigue (LCF/HCF), creep, oxidation, and fracture mechanics to ensure component reliability.

 

*Dynamic Evaluation: Conduct structural, modal, and forced response analyses; effectively interpret results to create Campbell diagrams and characterize dynamic behavior.

 

*Root Cause Analysis (RCA) & Technical Support: Provide decisive technical support for urgent engineering requests (ER) from field teams. Support RCA investigations to identify failure mechanisms and implement robust, long-term solutions.

 

*Technical Communication: Synthesize complex analytical findings into clear, actionable presentations for Design Reviews and internal stakeholders.

 


Educational Requirements:
* Required: Bachelors of Science in Mechanical, Aerospace Engineering, or other relevant engineering discipline
* Desired: Masters of Science in Engineering

Other Requirements:
* MUST BE A US PERSON THAT CAN VIEW EXPORT CONTROLLED MATERIAL
* At least 4+ years of relevant engineering design experience
* Prior experience supporting or leading root cause analyses (RCA) is desirable
* Classic Ansys/mechanical (FEA) design experience (4+ years)
* NX (CAD) experience (4+ years)
* Knowledge of GD&T standards, and how to interpret engineering drawings, perform stackups, etc
* Experience using PLM or Teamcenter configuration management tools
* Strong interpersonal skills
* Strong oral and written communication skills
* Experience working with global teams and in a Services environment
