Wind Turbine MultiBody Simulation Lead Engineer

Job Description Summary

Your models will decide how the next generation of wind turbines is designed and how quickly we fix problems in turbines already running in the field. At GE Vernova you will help build a world that works by developing the multibody simulation (MBS) capabilities behind our wind turbine design. You will work with engineers across the globe to deliver cost-effective high-performance products with bankable quality (quality that customers and financiers can trust).
