  • Knowledge of relevant codes and standards, including ANSI, ASME, AMCA, and ASHRE.
  • Knowledge of interfaces, especially control-system and electrical interfaces.
  • Knowledge of engineering, design, and project-management tools and methods, such as GTCC-PLM, AVEVA, Power-Now, and Confluence.

Responsibilities

  • Prepare design concepts and perform basic design, system, and equipment engineering for gas turbine/generator accessory mechanical systems, including heating and ventilation systems, exhaust frame blower skids, hazardous gas detection systems for enclosures, and gas, lube-oil, and liquid-fuel modules.
  • Develop detailed system and hardware designs, including schematics, device summaries, ordering specifications, and drawings.
  • Perform engineering calculations and analyses to size system components, such as fans, blowers, valves, dampers, motors, and ducts.
  • Carry out activities related to purchasing equipment designed by a third party or supplier using built-to-specifications and built-to-prints concepts.
  • Specify and evaluate supplier bids using total-cost analysis, negotiate technical matters, and initiate purchase-order requests.
