Systems Performance Engineering Manager - Integrated Project Solutions

Job Description Summary The Systems Performance Engineering Manager is a customer-facing technical leader within the Projects Coordination Office (PCO), responsible for shaping and coordinating system level performance solutions for complex, multi-segment GE Vernova enterprise projects. This role is heavily engaged up front with customers and commercial teams, influencing solution architecture, operating philosophy, and performance commitments from early project conceptualization (Pre-ITO) through proposal development (ITO) and project execution (OTR). The role supports data center and mission-critical applications, with a strong focus on Gas Turbine, Steam Turbine, Wind Turbine, Power Conversion & Storage, and combined-cycle technologies, working closely with Consulting Services and cross-functional Business Unit engineering teams. The successful candidate acts as a trusted customer technical liaison, translating customer requirements into competitive, compliant, and executable solutions for both behind-the-meter and grid-connected applications. Roles and Responsibilities Support early-stage customer technical engagement, partnering with Sales, Commercial, and Consulting Services teams to shape system performance concepts and solution strategies during Pre-ITO. Coordinate development of system level performance encompassing Gas Turbine, Steam Turbine, Wind Turbines, Power Conversion & Storage and combined-cycle performance models in collaboration with Consulting Services and Business Units. Support and manage technology selection and configuration trade studies to balance performance, cost, risk and schedule. Engage and support the various functions in the validation of plant models using GT PRO, ThermoFlow, as well as the generation of heat balances, performance curves, and guarantees. Evaluate operating modes relevant to data centers, including Baseload, Peaking, and load following operations. Support data center proposals, including N+1/N+2 redundancy, islanded and grid-connected operation. Support hyperscale and colocation data center proposals addressing fast start and load ramp requirements, reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) expectations, grid disturbance ride-through and operational flexibility. Coordinate with controls and electrical teams on operating philosophy, protection concepts, and grid requirements. Identify and communicate technical risks, assumptions, and margins to broader teams. Support customer technical clarifications and apply lessons learned to improve proposal quality. Drive standardization, lessons learned, and continuous improvement across PCO programs. Required Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related discipline. Strong understanding of Gas Turbine and Steam Turbine performance fundamentals. Demonstrated experience in Pre-ITO, proposal, or early-phase project engineering. Hands-on proficiency with GT PRO for simple-cycle and combined-cycle performance modeling. Ability to independently develop, troubleshoot, and explain performance models and results. Strong analytical, documentation, and communication skills. Desired Characteristics Master’s degree in engineering. Experience supporting data center or mission-critical power generation projects. Familiarity with behind-the-meter vs. grid-connected architectures and performance implications. Experience with additional tools such as Thermoflow, PEACE, GateCycle, or similar. Understanding of electrical balance of plant, including transformers, switchgear, and protection philosophy, and how these impact performance assumptions. Exposure to controls strategies, fast-start operation, and flexible dispatch. Experience working with GE Vernova gas and steam turbine technologies.
