Siemens Energy is looking to solve the business problem of modernizing, upgrading, revamping, and replacing existing turbo-compressor assets to improve their performance, capabilities, reliability, and extend their useful operating life within the Energy, Oil & Gas, and Chemicals industries.
Requirements
- 1+ years of proven track record of machinery design, rotor-dynamics, strength-of-materials / solid mechanics, materials-of-construction selection, thermodynamics, aerodynamics, fluid dynamics.
- Working knowledge of turbomachinery theory and thorough understanding of standard engineering principles such as: thermodynamics, aerodynamics, fluid dynamics, rotor dynamics, strength-of-materials / solid mechanics, materials-of-construction selection, machinery design.
- Experience working with rotating machinery / turbomachinery such as centrifugal/radial compressors, axial compressors, expanders, steam turbines.
- Knowledge and understanding of Siemens Energy’s products and services, e.g. Turbo Compressor Brands in portfolio: Dresser-Rand / Clark / Ingersoll-Rand, Cooper, Rolls-Royce, Demag, DeLaval.
Responsibilities
- Lead product design engineering in replacement machinery, machinery revamps, and machinery upgrades, e.g. compressors, pumps, and related equipment, to add performance and reliability capabilities to the machinery and extending the machinery’s useful life.
- Coordinate, collaborate, and modernize complex technical matters with stakeholders including CAD Designers; various specialist engineers, e.g. aero/Thermo-dynamicists, Rotor-dynamicists, Metallurgists, Solid Mechanics Analysts, Manufacturing Engineers, etc.; and Field Service / Repair Center personnel.
- Ensure product designs are in accordance with contract requirements for the supply of hardware while meeting or exceeding company and product line standards; and identify/raise deviations to established standards for management approval.
- Perform engineering investigation, calculation, and analysis for various turbo compressor designs to determine feasibility of, and ultimate implementation of rerates, revamps, upgrades, and footprint replacements.
- Analyze test results (field or factory), to evaluate and resolve if thermodynamic performance, design performance, quality, and operating characteristics are aligned with product design.
- Participate in development, implementation, maintenance, and continuous improvement of design tools, product improvements, and engineering standards associated with design, manufacturing, testing, and repair of turbomachinery products.
Other
- Collaborate with team members within this department and across the organization, including but not limited to other engineering specialty subject areas, sales, marketing, quality, manufacturing, supply chain, and project management.
- Willing and able to travel domestically and internationally with short notice (estimated 5-15% travel)
- Applicants must be legally authorized for employment in the United States without need for current or future employer-sponsored work authorization.
- This hybrid position will be located at the Siemens Energy facility located in Olean, NY ; Painted Post, NY; or Bethlehem, PA depending on candidate’s skill/experience.
