Job Summary
Job Description Summary
The Aeroderivative Performance & Operability Engineering team is a critical pillar within the Aeroderivative Engineering organization operating at the intersection of engineering commercial and digital domains. The team covers project execution and model development for aspects related to performance (thermodynamic cycle models) and operability (including emissions fuel flexibility and controls).As a Performance Engineer focused on cycle modeling you will provide essential leadership by developing maintaining and executing thermodynamic cycle models using industry-standard tools like NPSS (Numerical Propulsion System Simulation). You will work alongside experienced engineers to build the foundation of your career in gas turbine performance engineering while contributing to critical projects that power industries worldwide.
Job Description
Roles and Responsibilities
Lead Model Development Lifecycle: Drive the creation adjustment validation and application of thermodynamic cycle models for Aeroderivative gas turbines using NPSS and associated tools.
Develop and Refine Operability Models: Manage the lifecycle for operability models including emissions fuel flexibility and control aspects ensuring models reflect operational realities.
Test Plan Development & Field Support: Define and develop engineering test plans supporting field tests to gather data that drives improvements in both performance and operability models.
Field Data Integration & Model Validation: Lead the data reduction and status-matching of cycle models (steady state and transient) to various data sources.
Technical Leadership: Act as a performance and operability technical expert for Aeroderivative gas turbines.
Enable Automation & Tool Development: Build APIs scripts and tools using Python VBA AI and NPSS that connect our modeling ecosystem unlock AI/ML capabilities and streamline team operations
