What are the responsibilities and job description for the Advanced Technologies Design Engineer – Systems (Gas Turbines) position at Siemens Energy?
Snapshot of your day
We are looking for a highly skilled Research and Development Engineer to join our team. This role focuses on system level modeling, simulation, and software development to support the design, analysis and optimization of gas turbine performance and operability. The ideal candidate will bridge the gap between component-level engineering and full-engine system behavior through advanced tools and programming. The ideal candidate also should have a good understanding of component integration and large gas turbine fundamentals. Key responsibilities include gathering requirements, developing, documenting, deploying and maintaining system level tools.
How You’ll Make An Impact
Who is Siemens Energy?
At Siemens Energy, we are more than just an energy technology company. With ~100,000 dedicated employees in more than 90 countries, we develop the energy systems of the future, ensuring that the growing energy demand of the global community is met reliably and sustainably. The technologies created in our research departments and factories drive the energy transition and provide the base for one sixth of the world's electricity generation.
Our global team is committed to making sustainable, reliable, and affordable energy a reality by pushing the boundaries of what is possible. We uphold a 150-year legacy of innovation that encourages our search for people who will support our focus on decarbonization, new technologies, and energy transformation.
