Partner with the best

As a Senior Engineer-Electrical, you will work with the Baker Hughes Americas Service Engineering team leading  Trip Reduction Program (TRP) projects for contractual customers in the region. You will carry out a root cause analysis of top offenders causing forced shutdowns on critical rotating equipment with more focus on electrical equipment and related auxiliaries. Continuous alignment with project and service engineering teams and vendors is requested, ensuring the service provided is aligned with customer expectations.

As a Senior Systems Engineer- Electrical you will be responsible for:

• Lead Trip Reduction Program (TRP) projects for specific Customer Service Agreement (CSA) customers or fleets in the region
• Act as a focal point for assigned projects, providing technical leadership in electrical technology by closely tracking and managing technical issues to resolution, coordinating and communicating with customer representatives and internal & vendor organizations, fulfilling customized evaluations and optimization studies, and maintaining alignment between site and BH Engineering
• Technical assessment of fleet composed of VSDS, electric motors, gearboxes, auxiliaries, and balance of plant, ensuring adherence to engineering policies and procedures.
• Knowledge of gas turbines, steam turbines, centrifugal and reciprocating compressors operations
• Analyze the reliability behavior of accessories to enhance the product line
• Ability to manage engineering projects as a technical leader by coordinating activities of cross-functional teams
• Lead Root Cause Analyses (RCA) on equipment through field experience analysis at site or fleet level
• Define validation plans and measure the effectiveness of applied corrective actions
• Focus on maintenance optimization of auxiliary systems, determining frequency, tasks, and criticalities to extend the fleet Mean Time Between Maintenance interval
• Interface with CSA managers to define Scope of Work and schedule for new requests
• Proactive approach and effective collaboration with diverse stakeholders to drive excellence in project execution and reliability enhancement

• Analyze data and alerts generated by BH and vendor Monitoring & Diagnostic (M&D) systems to prevent asset failures and optimize asset performance and operation

• Actively participate as a presenter or reviewer in technical and program reviews, contributing valuable insights
• Conduct risk prioritization at the machine, subsystem, and component levels
• Perform Failure Mode and Effect Analyses (FMEA) at the component level, identifying critical items for machine availability and proposing improvements for maintenance optimization and/or design modification
• Review of technical documentation such as trip root cause analyses, anomaly notifications, and monthly reports
• Navigating and interpreting site-specific control software (e.g. MarkVI/VIe, MicroNet/Plus, RX3i/RX7i, etc.) and engineering documents (e.g. P&ID, Instrument List, Wiring Diagram) to support technical analyses
• Validate performance calculations on monitored equipment, identify non-conformities
• Support the development and deployment of diagnostic systems in terms of hardware, software, data acquisition, analytics and applications
• Provide information about the latest advancements in Conversion, Modification, and Upgrade (CM&U) opportunities to customers and assist with the implementation of any such CM&Us
• Support testing and troubleshooting activities at the site; case by a case basis for travel to the site
