Schenectady, New York, United States GE Vernova Full time
Job Description

GE Vernova is seeking a highly skilled Research Engineer to join our team. As a Research Engineer, you will be responsible for conducting research on advanced engineered material systems as applied to industrial challenges across energy transition, additive manufacturing, renewable energy, healthcare, and power generation.

You will apply chemical engineering principles, computational modeling approaches, and experimental techniques to develop innovative material systems technologies, including sorbents for high-value extractions, in decarbonization, including carbon capture, and atmospheric water extraction.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Conduct basic and applied research in sorption and separation technologies, including sorbent fabrication, scale-up, and process engineering, system design, fabrication & testing, process development, and optimization.
  • Determine system-level performance requirements and develop fundamental system knowledge through fluid dynamic and mass transfer experimentation and modeling, system engineering cost analyses, and sorption and separations mechanisms.
  • Iteratively improve performance for various applications, such as carbon capture (direct air and post-combustion) and atmospheric water extraction.
  • Apply chemical engineering principles, computational modeling tools, and experimental skills to develop material and energy balances and kinetic and thermal models to provide process and system design insight.
  • Use experimental data to understand separation mechanisms and define the kinetic and thermodynamic factors impacting various separation unit operations.
  • Work with synthetic and process chemists to develop robust methods for producing novel sorbents, including metal-organic frameworks (MOF) and polymeric resins.
  • Identify novel material system structures and system configurations with improved performance (flux, selectivity, etc.), greater reliability, and lower energy requirements, especially under relevant environmental conditions (pressure, temperature, flow).
  • Design & execute experiments, while independently leading tasks that result in impact for GE Vernova businesses and customers.
  • Be a member of a multidisciplinary team, including chemists, material scientists, chemical engineers, thermal engineers, and mechanical engineers to develop functional materials across diverse application spaces.
  • Build relationships with colleagues at GE Vernova with a wide variety of technical expertise and business responsibilities.
  • Engage in all facets of technical development, including laboratory testing, modeling, and prototype and systems development.
  • Support technology transfer and scale-up of the developed processes at pilot and commercial sites and to business and external customers.
  • Collaborate with technologists and product managers in GE Vernova businesses and at external partners to understand needs and product and process requirements.
  • Identify and form collaborative relationships with academic, national laboratory, industry, government agencies, and GE experts to leverage internal capability, increasing impact.
  • Investigate, identify, and pursue external and commercial opportunities, proposing solutions to some of the world's toughest challenges and write white papers and proposals for grant consideration.
  • Support IP strategy development and prior art analysis, write disclosures, and patent applications and collect rigorous experimental data for IP patent processes.
  • Deliver technical results, progress, and insights through effective presentations, reports, and publications to GE Vernova leadership, the GE Vernova businesses, government agencies, professional societies, and peer-reviewed journals.
Requirements:
  • Doctorate in Chemical Engineering, Materials Engineering, or related discipline.
  • Proven record of innovation, including peer-reviewed publications, in areas related to separation technologies, with excellent knowledge of chemical engineering principles, including reaction kinetics, reactor design, chemical thermodynamics, heat and mass transport, fluid dynamics, engineering statistics, and process modeling and simulation.
  • Skilled in Multi-physics modeling and simulation software (e.g., COMSOL, ANSYS, ASPEN, MATLAB).
  • Proficiency in typical office and data analytics software (e.g., JMP, MatLab, MiniTab, Office).
  • Excellent interpersonal, teamwork, and communication skills.
  • Practical knowledge of safety practices as it relates to experimental design and lab practices.
  • Demonstrated project execution experience, teamwork experience, and ability to work across all functions/levels as part of a team.
  • Demonstrated leadership experience.
  • Must be willing to work out of an office located in Niskayuna, NY.
  • Must have unrestricted work authorization in the US.
  • Must be willing to take a drug test and submit to a background investigation as part of the selection process.
  • Must be 18 years or older.
Desired Characteristics:
  • Expertise in the design, fabrication, process development, and product costing methods of new material systems, including sorbent materials (e.g., metal-organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks) and engineering thermoplastic and thermoset polymers, and their associated manufacturing processes.
  • Experience in the process development and scale-up of materials and material systems, including experience with additive manufacturing.
  • Ability and experience transitioning products from R&D to manufacturing.
  • A foundational understanding of organic, inorganic, and/or polymer chemistry.
  • Experience with the development of material systems for carbon capture and atmospheric water extraction applications.
  • Versed in material characterization methods, including such as PXRD, DSC, TGA, and BET.
  • Knowledge of design of experiments (DoE), familiarity with statistical analysis methodologies like Lean/Six-Sigma, and a desire to become Six Sigma certified.
  • Knowledge of Design-Expert, JMP, or Minitab for design and analysis of DoE studies.
  • Experience in automated processes, including use of LabView.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication capabilities.
  • Experience developing patentable intellectual property.
  • Experience writing successful R&D proposals, including to government agencies.
  • Demonstrated capability to work in a multidisciplinary environment. Comfort interacting horizontally and vertically both within and across organizational boundaries.
  • Demonstrated creative problem-solving skills using innovative and hands-on solutions.
  • Strong interpersonal skills, initiative, high self-confidence, and goals for a career in industrial research.
