## Description

The Senior Principal Engineer - Aeroderivative Operability & Systems Integration serves as a recognized technical authority and provides advanced technical leadership across Aero plant and package integration. This role is responsible for driving engineering excellence in operability, systems integration, and lifecycle technical risk management for complex Aeroderivative solutions. The Senior Principal Engineer collaborates cross-functionally to ensure safe, reliable, and risk-mitigated technical solutions across the lifecycle.This role is focused on ensuring that plant, package, controls, electrical, and mechanical interfaces come together into a complete and operable Aeroderivative power plant solution. The position requires broad systems thinking, strong technical judgment, and deep understanding of how design decisions impact installation, commissioning, operation, maintainability, and fleet reliability., You shape the future of clean energy by leading the integration of complex aeroderivative power plant systems. In this role, you define technical direction, drive engineering excellence across package execution, and ensure our systems perform safely and reliably from commissioning through their entire operational lifecycle., * Establish Technical Direction and Authority: Serve as the technical authority for aeroderivative operability and systems integration, guiding engineering decisions across LM6000, LM2500, TM2500, and LS100 platforms.

 * Lead End-to-End Systems Integration: Drive cross-functional alignment across package design, fluid systems, controls, electrical, mechanical, and balance-of-plant interfaces for complex power solutions.
 * Manage Technical Risk and Resolution: Identify interface risks, lead complex issue resolution during startup and transient operation, and formalize mitigation strategies across the asset lifecycle.
 * Accelerate Innovation and New Solutions: Support new product introduction and technology integration efforts, including emerging applications such as hydrogen, grid support, and data centers.
 * Drive Standardization and Mentorship: Establish technical standards, implement lessons learned from fleet operations, and mentor engineers to strengthen systems thinking and technical rigor across the organization.
