Siemens
Lead Mechanical Integrity and Aeromechanics Engineer
Siemens, Orlando, FL
A Snapshot of your Day:
Siemens Energy is looking for an experienced mechanical or aerospace engineer with background in Structural Integrity and Aeromechanics to lead technology programs in support of existing and new Large Gas Turbine designs.
The Technology group is responsible for developing the advanced failure prediction methods for materials at high temperatures. We are seeking candidates with a research background in failure analysis and structural integrity who enjoy solving problems and coming up with innovative solutions to unique problems. As part of a global support team, you will be working on a wide range of applications to develop life prediction methods which have a direct impact on company decisions.
Your daily work will include development and validation of new methods, coordinating both standard and innovative material testing, and creating new calculation codes to test application on FEA results with complex loading.
How You'll Make an Impact
Basic Qualifications:
Our Gas Services division offers Low-emission power generation through service and decarbonization. Zero or low emission power generation and all gas turbines under one roof, steam turbines and generators. Decarbonization opportunities through service offerings, modernization, and digitalization of the fleet.
