The essential functions of the job include, but are not limited to, the following:
Analyze engine supervisory and thermal performance data of F-Class Gas Turbines to determine root causes and corrective actions for a variety of operational issues. It would be exceptionally beneficial to have 7EA experience.
Utilize Process Information (PI) tools for monitoring, analysis and graphical representation of Gas Turbine and LNG Compressor stations
Build databases of known field issues and their indicators for reference during troubleshooting.
Willing to share current knowledge of systems and expand to other engine types and technologies.
Interact with team of aerothermal and performance engineers to define and develop best approaches and architecture philosophies for GT performance, troubleshooting, diagnostics, and health monitoring models.
Clearly communicate corrective actions to customers via e-mails and/or phone calls.
Help refine automated tools and templates as necessary for recurring tasks to improve team responsiveness and productivity.
U.S. and international travel may be required.
Respond during working and non-working hours.
Includes overtime and rotational shifts
Facilitate and actively work to ensure all quality documentation is correct, complete, timely, and recorded as appropriate.
Individuals with LNG compressor experience is a plus.
Looking particularly for individuals who have GE7EA experience used for LNG compressor stations. Should be highly component with at least 1 of the 2 above mentioned components.
Need individuals with more maintenance and controls troubleshooting experience verse operators of Gas Turbines where little hands on experience has been acquired.
Other duties as assigned.
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS
Education & Training
