Job Description SummaryThe engineer in this role will serve as a Lead Operability Monitoring Engineer on
the Electrical, Controls, and Operability (EC&O) Monitoring Team. The engineer in
this role will execute proactive operability monitoring and diagnostic assessments
across the fleet, with focus on detecting performance-limiting behavior and system interactions early and converting data into clear, actionable recommendations.
The engineer in this role will support the team mission to detect, diagnose, and
communicate abnormal electrical, controls, and system-level behavior before issues become outages, repeat events, or sustained performance losses.
Job DescriptionRole Scope The engineer in this role will develop and execute operability monitoring methods and diagnostic assessments for high-impact operability issues, including abnormal operating envelopes, curtailment interactions, nuisance operational constraints, and performance-limiting fleet behavior patterns. The engineer in this role will work closely with more senior members on the team and cross-functional partners in Services, Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Controls Engineering, Fleet Reliability, Root Cause Analysis, and Fleet Performance teams.
Roles and Responsibilities- Execute proactive monitoring of turbine operability using SCADA trends, events, alarms, wind/operating context, and fleet performance data.
- Develop and improve operability indicators, thresholds, and detection logic for assigned performance and availability risk modes.
- Perform deep diagnostic assessments for abnormal operating patterns, intermittent behavior, and system interactions that limit productivity or reliability.
- Distinguish actionable operability risk from expected operational variation and non-critical anomalies.
- Translate diagnostic findings into practical recommendations, including troubleshooting direction and performance improvement priorities.
- Partner with more senior members on the team to align diagnostic priorities, escalation decisions, and action recommendations.
- Support standardization of operability monitoring documentation, issue classification, and technical communication quality.
- Build technical depth in operability monitoring by applying feedback, sharing lessons learned, and supporting continuous improvement of team methods.
Required Qualifications- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related discipline.
- 4+ years of relevant experience in wind turbine performance, operations engineering, reliability, or fleet diagnostics.
- Strong understanding of wind turbine operating behavior, performance drivers, and system interactions.
- Demonstrated experience diagnosing fleet performance and operability issues from time-series and event data.
- Strong data literacy with hands-on use of SCADA trends, event logs, and performance data in technical decision-making.
- Strong analytical and communication skills, with ability to influence cross functional action.
Desired Characteristics- Experience in fleet performance engineering, availability improvement, or condition monitoring functions.
- Experience combining controls, electrical, and operational context in system level diagnostics.
- Hands-on analytics capability with Python, SQL, or equivalent tools.
- Familiarity with reliability and root cause processes in wind operations.
- Experience building fleet dashboards, triage workflows, and issue prioritization frameworks.
