GE Vernova

GE Vernova is an American energy company created in April 2024 when General Electric split into three, taking the power, wind and electrification businesses. It builds and services gas turbines that generate a substantial share of the world's electricity, onshore and offshore wind turbines, grid equipment including transformers and high-voltage transmission, and nuclear technology through GE Hitachi and its BWRX-300 small modular reactor. Headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the company sits at the centre of two simultaneous demand shocks: the electrification of transport and industry, and the electricity requirements of large-scale artificial intelligence data centres.

Job Description Summary

We are seeking a high-calibre, experienced and established Engineering Leader to drive the technical excellence of our state-of-the-art Haiphong Transformer facility in Vietnam. This is not just a management role; it is a technical leadership position. You will be responsible for the full engineering lifecycle of world-class power transformers, ensuring our designs push the boundaries of performance while mentoring and developing the next generation of engineers.

Job Description

What You Will Do:

Technical Authority: Act as the primary technical point of contact for complex HVAC (up to 765kV) and HVDC transformer projects VSC & LCC (up to +/-800kV). Oversee design quality, integrity, FEA validation, and compliance with IEC60076 standards.
Engineering Excellence: Elevate the team’s output by institutionalizing rigorous design reviews, "Design for Manufacturing" (DFM) principles, and advanced modelling workflows.
Operational Transformation: Drive a Lean engineering culture. You will be expected to identify bottlenecks in the design-to-delivery value stream and implement scalable solutions to slash cycle times without compromising quality.
Strategic Team Building: Cultivate a high-performance engineering organization. You will define the technical career paths, succession plans, and mentoring programs that make our Haiphong site the premier destination for transformer talent.

What You Bring:

Deep Domain Expertise: Significant experience in the design of large power transformers. Electrical bias is preferred. You are comfortable troubleshooting high-voltage design challenges and understand the physics behind complex failures.
Digital Proficiency: Advanced user of design tools such as FEA modelling and simulations, 3D modelling. You know how to leverage these tools to automate, optimise and standardize design processes.
Strategic Leadership: Proven success in leading cross-functional teams. You don't just "manage" progress; you lead through technical influence, clear decision-making, and transparency.
A "Quality First" Mindset: A track record of delivering complex engineering programs on time and on budget. You have a "zero-defect" mentality when it comes to customer-facing engineering documentation.

Why Join Us?

Lead a critical facility in a rapidly growing region.
Influence the technical roadmap for HVDC/HVAC projects at scale.
Be part of a culture that values engineering rigor, continuous improvement, and professional development.
