You’ll serve as a subject matter expert (SME) in high‑pressure steam systems and steam turbines for complex industrial projects in the energy, cogeneration, thermal power plant, mining and heavy industry sectors. Specify, select, and validate steam turbines (HP/IP/LP), their auxiliaries (lubrication, governing, sealing, vacuum), and the associated control systems. Carry out or oversee thermodynamic studies, including mass and energy balances, efficiency calculations, performance curves, energy optimization, transient scenarios, and start‑ups and shutdowns.

Lead preventive, condition‑based, and corrective maintenance programs (inspections, NDT, major overhauls, and planned shutdowns). Contribute to capital projects (refurbishments, capacity increases, new steam or turbine islands, and cogeneration) from conceptual design through to commissioning. Train and support operations and maintenance teams on best operating and safety practices.

Participate in risk analyses, including HAZOP, FMEA, rupture and overpressure scenarios, and emergency plans. Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, energy engineering, chemical engineering, or a related field. At least 15 years of relevant experience in engineering, operations, or maintenance of high‑pressure steam systems and steam turbines.

Experience participating in major shutdowns, refurbishments, or new installation projects. Understanding of mechanical and materials constraints in high‑pressure, high‑temperature service (creep, thermal fatigue,



stress corrosion cracking). Knowledge of applicable codes and standards (ASME, API, EN, local regulations). Ability to review P&IDs;, control diagrams, isometrics, and vendor documents.
