Rotating Machinery Senior Engineer

Serve as DNV’s rotating machinery SME across advisory engagements involving both thermal generation (priority) and wind generation assets.

Lead technical evaluations of equipment and portfolios, including: Gas turbines, steam turbines, and associated generator systems Wind turbine generators and drivetrain systems (gearboxes, bearings, shafts)

Gas turbines, steam turbines, and associated generator systems

Wind turbine generators and drivetrain systems (gearboxes, bearings, shafts)

Assess asset condition, performance, and reliability using operating data, inspection findings, maintenance history, and failure trends across both wind and thermal technologies.

Evaluate equipment behavior under different operating regimes (e.g., cycling and load-following in thermal assets, variable wind conditions and transient loads in wind turbines).

Support technical due diligence, independent engineering, and owner’s engineering scopes, including: Review of turbine systems, drivetrain components, and plant configurations Assessment of asset condition, operational performance, and reliability risk Evaluation of operations and maintenance practices, including major maintenance strategies (overhauls, gearbox replacements, outage planning) Validation of technical inputs to financial models, including availability, performance, and lifecycle costs Participation in site visits, inspections, and technical interviews

Validation of technical inputs to financial models, including availability, performance, and lifecycle costs

Participation in site visits, inspections, and technical interviews

Perform root cause analysis (RCA) for rotating equipment failures across both wind and thermal assets, including wind turbine generators, gearboxes, bearings, and turbine-generator systems Identify failure modes, assess recurrence risk, and recommend mitigation strategies based on reliability engineering principles Interpret and contextualize RCA findings and failure history to inform asset-level risk, performance expectations, and investment decisions Provide independent technical judgment, constructively challenging assumptions and conclusions to ensure alignment with observed equipment behavior
