Job Description Summary

GE Vernova Hitachi’s (GVH) Design process and Requirements Management team is looking for a Senior Engineer to lead the BWRX-300 Engineering organization in the transition from IBM DOORs ELM (Engineering Lifecyle Management) and Enovia PLM (Project Lifecycle Management) to the implementation of Siemens Teamcenter.  You will be responsible for leading the BWRX-300 engineering organization in the successful transition between design and requirements management tools, processes, training, and procedures while supporting multiple engineering projects that are in process.    Responsibilities will include development and revision of existing processes, training and planning materials, software configuration and data model architecture, and coordination between stakeholders to facilitate a smooth transition and integration with existing engineering projects, deadlines, and milestones.   

The transition between ELM and Teamcenter is more than a change in design tools, it is advancing and improving our design and requirements management processes in a shift from a document centric model to a data-centric design process that will enable multiple variants of the standard design to be developed simultaneously while providing full traceability of requirements, design inputs, and verification and validation to support fulfilling business objectives.

The ideal candidate should have experience with systems engineering, software engineering, design engineering and processes, data models and software architecture for building a major infrastructure or critical facilities project.  Experience within GVH nuclear design process and procedures and experience and expertise in the field of design process and requirements management databases Siemens Teamcenter and IBM Doors Next Generation / Engineering Lifecycle Management (ELM) is strongly preferred.

Roles and Responsibilities

Essential Functions:

• Serve as the BWRX-300 Engineering project lead for the transition from ELM to Siemens Teamcenter Requirements Management and subsequent full transition from PLM to Siemens Teamcenter.
• Coordinate and work directly with the Digital Tools Team, Siemens, and GVH partners and supporting organizations to lead the planning, transition, training, testing, implementation, and long-term successful execution of this transition.
• Develop, evaluate, and execute engineering solutions to meet near term and long-range transition and integration of Siemens Teamcenter.
• Review and revise procedures to facilitate an improved user experience highlighting the need for to perform identification of verification and validation (V&V) requirements at the plant, system, and component level.
• Provide guidance and direction by interfacing with engineering teams, customers, and third parties to assist in the development and execution of licensing strategy and compliance with Teamcenter.  
• Lead and provide key technical consultation on incorporating design and requirements management tools and methodology into established design processes in support of new nuclear projects.
• Maintain an active role in developing and defining requirements management and design process improvements to anticipate, apply, adapt, or develop technologies for product introduction, quality, performance, cost improvements and problem resolution in meeting current and future business needs.
• Support GVH businesses, internal & external customers, and suppliers as required.
• Provide technical guidance, direction, and training to new and experienced materials engineers, specialists, technicians, and co-ops.
