witnessing innovation firsthand through facility tours and real-world applications. Enhance your professional network
by connecting with GE Vernova leaders, engineers, and fellow interns, and participate in workshops, technical training,
and professional development sessions designed to prepare you for future career opportunities. If you are passionate
about engineering, sustainability, and innovation, this internship is your opportunity to acquire the skills and
experience!
Job Description
The Role We are looking for a motivated student (nearing their Master’s degree) to bridge the gap between process
engineering and data science. In this role, you will help optimize plant systems by analyzing complex operational data
and developing tools to improve process efficiency. You will translate engineering challenges into digital solutions,
providing you with a unique perspective on how large-scale energy systems are designed and maintained.
Our work sits at the intersection of mechanical engineering, data systems, and real-world power plant performance. You
will be joining a team that directly impacts how next-generation infrastructure is designed, monitored, and optimized.
In this role, you will help bridge the gap between process engineering and data science, translating complex
engineering challenges into digital solutions and gaining a unique perspective on how large-scale energy systems
function under real-world conditions.
What You Will Do
- Data Analysis & Modeling: Process and interpret operational data to identify trends, performance bottlenecks, and
optimization opportunities within power plant systems.
- Process Engineering Support: Assist in the technical analysis of critical balance-of-plant systems, applying
thermodynamics and fluid mechanics principles to real-world design challenges.
- System Analysis: Deepen your understanding of combined cycle power plant operations, specifically the interplay
between the gas turbine, heat recovery steam generator (HRSG), steam turbine cycles and balance of plant equipment.
- Software & Scripting: Develop scripts and automated workflows (using languages like Python) to streamline data
processing, model performance, and create visualizations. Explore opportunities to use available AI tools to support
the effort.
- Collaborative Design: Work alongside senior engineers to document findings and present data-driven recommendations
that directly influence the design and efficiency of next-generation infrastructure.
- Data-Driven Optimization: Explore how AI and machine learning techniques can be applied to improve plant efficiency,
flexibility, and availability.
Who You Are
- Academic Background: Currently pursuing a Master’s degree (or finishing a Bachelor’s) in Mechanical Engineering,
Process Engineering, or an Energy-related field. You have a solid grasp of thermodynamics and are eager to apply this
knowledge to understand the complex processes of combined cycle power plants.
- Technical Proficiency: Strong programming foundation (e.g., Python) and a keen interest in applying data-driven
methods to physical engineering systems. Experience with applying AI/Machine Learning methods to physical engineering
or time-series data.
- Analytical Mindset: You enjoy solving complex, multi-disciplinary problems and have a knack for translating raw
technical data into meaningful, actionable insights.
- Communication: Fluent in English, with the ability to clearly explain technical concepts to a variety of
stakeholders.
- Engagement: You are a proactive learner who is eager to contribute to a collaborative, international team
environment.
