Lead Systems Engineer- System Design Ito Job in General Electric

Job Description Essential responsibilities: The successful candidate may be involved in any of the following areas and is expected to have experience in a number of these areas: Main Circuit Design Develop an integrated scheme design that meets the Customer s needs, by developing requirements on the ratings and functionalities of the different HVDC system s subsystems, in an optimized and cost-effective manner. Insulation Coordination Studies Determine the temporary and transient overvoltage stresses on HV equipment and provide the protective level requirements for the surge arresters. Equipment Lifecycle Management Manage the lifecycle of high economic value High Voltage equipment such as power transformers, instrument transformers, reactors, capacitors, and surge arresters, covering the development of its requirements, specification, supplier management and the validation and verification (testing) of design, manufacturing and commissioning. Reliability, Availability and Maintainability Studies and Management Create, verify, and validate the reliability, availability and maintainability models for HVDC systems and subsystems, providing insight to customers and leaders and managing the risks, issues and opportunities that affect the systems throughout their lifecycle. Losses Management Create, verify, and validate the electrical power losses models for HVDC systems and subsystems, providing insight to customers and leaders and managing the risks, issues and opportunities that affect the systems throughout their lifecycle. Technical Leadership Lead Project activities within the Systems department and co-ordination with other engineering department Quality Take part in the development and deployment of engineering processes, working methods and best practices within the Department. Enforce engineering discipline and set processes across all work tasks and adherence to company policies, quality procedures and work instructions (e.g., through trainings, technical reviews). Report or resolve any non-conformances in a timely manner. Development and Industrialisation Develop and industrialise solutions tools and processes associated with the engineering activities identified above. Health and Safety Identify and evaluate EHS risks in own area and implement practical measures. Set the example by demonstrating the proper acts and actively observe work conditions and behaviours, giving constructive feedback and celebrating EHS effective prevention. Actively participate in defining corrective actions when work is unsafe or when an uncontrolled risk is observed. Routinely observe routines and behaviours of others and provide immediate feedback regarding unsafe behaviour and celebrates achievements or safe behaviours. Actively and routinely promote the identification of hazards and near misses to their team/s.
