A Snapshot of Your Day
You will contribute to our business’ success, navigating a very dynamic and fast-paced environment while solving various technical issues relating to complex gas turbine combustion components. You may participate in daily Gemba meetings where part/project priorities are highlighted as they relate to both standard production and various development initiatives. At times, you will be on the shop floor closely working with the operators to create a robust manufacturing process in anticipation of new product release. You will collaborate daily with design and service engineering colleagues on DFM (design for manufacturing) topics for new and refurbished combustion hardware.
How You’ll Make an Impact
- Develop and implement product-specific manufacturing processes applying sound engineering judgment and methodologies
- Ensure manufacturing processes are clearly defined and communicated from manufacturing engineering to the shop floor via technical instructions, project briefings, etc.
- Provide technical guidance and training to operators, technicians, and manufacturing engineers on the use of fixtures, tooling, and equipment
- Communicate and work effectively with design and service engineering colleagues on process improvements and new product development and introduction
What You Bring
- BS in Mechanical Engineering or related field is required
- 2+ years of manufacturing engineering experience in a fabrication and machine shop environment, preferably experience in forming and fabrication (welding, brazing, …) of nickel-based alloys.
- Ability to interpret complex drawings and specifications, including a solid understanding of GD&T
- Fundamental understanding of both non-destructive and destructive testing and inspection techniques
- Experience with fixture design and fabrication
- Familiarity with Lean and/or Six Sigma philosophies and their application in process capability and improvement
- Basic understanding of root cause analysis and corrective/preventative action methods
- Experience with CAD software
- Applicants must be legally authorized for employment in the United States without need for current or future employer-sponsored work authorization. Current SE employees with existing visa sponsorship may be eligible for visa transfer.
What You Preferably Bring
- MS in Mechanical Engineering or related field

- Experience with Robotic and CNC Programming
- Experience with Siemens NX CAD/CAM, Teamcenter & SAP
About the Team
Through our Generation division, we enhance and innovate conventional and renewable power supply. Currently, we're reducing carbon emissions of existing assets and developing technologies that transform power generation applications.
Specifically, Combustion Component Manufacturing is responsible for the manufacture of transition ducts and combustor baskets primarily, that produce and deliver the hot gas into the 1st turbine stage of the gas turbine.
We work closely with combustion design engineering on the development of innovative technology which is evident in the newly released 9000HL gas turbine with both 50 Hz and 60 Hz variants.
