Job Description Summary

As a Technical Leader in Advanced Systems Engineering, you sit at the intersection of long-range technology strategy and day-to-day engineering execution. You will oversee the full range of Advanced Systems activities — including GE Vernova's Multigeneration Technology Plan (MGTP), the New Technology Introduction (NTI) portfolio, and next-generation turbine conceptual design — working closely alongside the Advanced Systems leader to ensure all streams are coordinated, current, and moving forward.

Job Description

Roles and Responsibilities

  • Own the NTI and continuous improvement (CIP) processes — develop best practices, drive their adoption across the portfolio, and ensure consistent, high-quality execution from initiation through transition.

  • Coordinate major technology initiatives end-to-end: track on-time and on-budget delivery, manage key performance indicators (KPIs), and drive validation and verification activities including system-level testing.

  • Support portfolio management alongside the Advanced Systems leader — contributing to engineering excellence program management, program operations, and milestone reviews.

  • Serve as the primary interface between the Advanced Systems team and subsystem engineering teams — facilitating collaboration, supporting critical-to-quality (CTQ) and risk trade studies, and guiding NTI transition planning.

  • Contribute to the MGTP — help maintain high-quality technology roadmaps, coordinate regular updates, and provide relevant input to the annual Long-Term Strategy (LTS) process.

  • Support conceptual design activities, external project coordination, and technical assessments across parallel Advanced Systems workstreams.

Required Qualifications

We're looking for a technically rigorous engineer with a collaborative approach and a track record of seeing complex technology programs through to successful outcomes.

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering is required for this role

  • Demonstrated experience leading technology development programs, including successful transitions from development into product (New Product Introduction or equivalent)

  • Experience in wind turbine systems design, including first-level loads analysis and value trade-off studies

  • Project management experience, with the ability to manage scope, schedule, and stakeholder alignment simultaneously

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present technical content clearly to diverse audiences

Desired Characteristics

  • Master's degree (MSc) or PhD in Engineering — preferred and may position you more competitively for the scope of work involved

  • Experience with artificial intelligence (AI) applications and software tool development, including Python

  • Experience in wind turbine component design or development
