Job Description Summary
As a Lead Mechanical Steampath Design Engineer (m/w/d) within our Steam Power Services ITR Engineering organization at
GE Vernova, you will take technical ownership for the design of mechanical steampath components for steam turbines
using reaction and impulse blading technology. In this role, you will design and assess steam turbine blades and
mechanical steampath components, including record searches, configuration assessments, and reviews of technical design
documentation for replacement-in-kind, service, and retrofit projects. As part of a global team, you will contribute
with your expertise to help deliver reliable, efficient, and sustainable power to customers worldwide.
Job Description
Roles and Responsibilities
- Apply sound engineering principles and relevant standards to design and analyse steam turbine blades and components
across a wide range of applications, from small industrial units to large nuclear steam turbines.
- Understand the configuration and operating history of steam turbine units in service through record searches and
data analysis.
- Perform complex checks on blade assembly and manufacturing processes.
- Adapt and optimize legacy designs to improve manufacturability, incorporate modern materials, and enhance
reliability.
- Develop, capture, and maintain best working practices in collaboration with senior engineers, subject matter
experts, and global engineering teams.
- Create and review technical documentation for the manufacturing of steam turbine blades for replacement-in-kind and
upgrade/retrofit projects, applying the latest state-of-the-art manufacturing processes.
- Provide manufacturing support and contribute to root cause analysis of component and system failures, particularly
for turbine blades, including the definition and implementation of corrective actions.
- Mentor and provide technical guidance to early-career engineers, fostering a culture of safety, quality, and
collaboration.
- Communicate effectively within the engineering community and with project management, sourcing, and suppliers to
support project and business objectives.
- Undertake occasional international travel to other engineering sites and suppliers, as required.
Required Qualifications
- Master's degree (or higher) in Mechanical Engineering, with a focus on steam turbine technology, or a Bachelor's
degree in Mechanical Engineering with relevant professional experience.
- Strong professional experience in steam turbine technology, with a focus on steam turbine blades, steampath
components, and mechanical design.
- Demonstrated technical knowledge in steam turbine blade design, manufacturing, analysis, and relevant industry
standards.
Desired Characteristics
- Systematic and structured approach to work, with strong attention to detail, documentation quality, and
configuration control.
- Proven experience creating and reviewing state-of-the-art manufacturing documentation (e.g., 3D models, drawings,
specifications, and part list structures).
- Proficiency in 2D and 3D CAD tools (Siemens NX and CATIA V5 preferred); familiarity with other engineering software
is an advantage.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English, including the ability to clearly present complex
technical topics to diverse stakeholders.
- Collaborative and inclusive team player.
- Ability to manage multiple projects or work packages in parallel, prioritize effectively, and meet commitments in a
dynamic environment.
- Strong interpersonal and technical leadership skills.
- Pragmatic, solution-oriented mindset, focused on delivering practical, robust engineering outcomes that meet safety,
quality, delivery, and cost targets.
- Demonstrated problem-solving skills, including root cause analysis and the implementation of corrective and
preventive actions.
- Continuous improvement mindset, with a drive to enhance processes, standards, and tools across the organization.
