As Combined Cycle Plant Process & Performance Engineer, you will be responsible to provide gas plant heat balance diagrams, functional specifications for main plant mechanical equipment, plant performance predictions and plant performance correction curves for different tender and execution projects worldwide. You will define system integration concepts to support the development of decarbonization solutions for both pre-combustion (hydrogen) and post-combustion (carbon capture) technologies. You will provide technical expertise on plant performance & bottoming cycle design aspects.
Roles and Responsibilities
Provide combined cycle modeling guidance and leadership to develop and execute configurations with winning performance for ITO proposals, OTR projects and NPI and standardization initiatives
Lead the completion of heat balances and produce correction curves to support timely bid execution
Manage a close working relationship w. component AEs, and Pre-ITO RCAEs to ensure a smooth transition with well developed, multi-channel deal strategies
System engineering for core combined cycle plant equipment. Including process calculations, designing components like pumps, control valves, heat exchangers, boiler (HRSG) based on heat balance process data
Deliver heat & mass balance diagrams and performance correction curves for project execution (customer projects) & development projects (R&D)
Collaborate with other multidisciplinary global engineering teams to insure successful project execution
Identify and Develop plant integration concepts to help drive towards a cleaner energy future
Issue documentation of technical data generated for the assigned projects and/or tasks consistent with engineering policies, procedures and contract
Play an active role in technical project risks related to plant design & performance
Uses prior experience and acquired new technical expertise to execute business strategy
Support development of standards, technical harmonization, design practices and design templates.
Continuously improve the organizational workflow and process
Required Qualifications
Demonstrated knowledge in thermodynamics and plant equipment process design
This role requires advanced experience in the Engineering/Technology & Process Engineering. Knowledge level is comparable to a Bachelor's degree from an accredited university or college (or a high school diploma with relevant experience).
