Description

The APEX Power Co. Project in Hubbard, TX, currently under Phase 1 construction, is expected to expand to 1.6 GW. It features a diverse mix of generation technologies, including Siemens SGT-800/400 simple cycle turbines, MAN/Everllence 18V51/60G gas reciprocating engines, GE LM6000/LM2500 simple cycle turbines, Pratt & Whitney FT8 simple cycle turbines, and a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), enabling flexible, reliable power output. Future expansion may include additional GE aero and large frame units (6B, 7FA/7FB/7H) in simple or combined cycle configurations, allowing the plant to efficiently meet varying energy demands while supporting data center grid reliability.

Opportunity Summary

The Plant Engineering & Reliability Manager at the APEX Power Co. Project leads the site's engineering and reliability functions to support the safe, reliable, and efficient commissioning and operation of the facility. This role provides technical leadership for electrical, controls, mechanical, and plant systems; oversees engineering projects, reliability programs, capital improvements, and long-term asset strategies; and partners with Operations and Maintenance to resolve complex technical issues, improve equipment performance, and maximize plant reliability and availability.

As Plant Engineering & Reliability Manager, your responsibilities specific to the Pre-Commissioning Phase include:

• Lead the site's engineering and reliability activities throughout pre-commissioning, ensuring mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, controls, and BESS systems are installed, tested, and ready for startup.
• Oversee installation and commissioning of generation assets, BESS, and balance-of-plant systems, ensuring compliance with design specifications and acceptance criteria.
• Manage engineering support for system turnover and startup by coordinating technical resources, resolving engineering issues, completing punch list items, and leading resolution of commissioning deficiencies, startup issues, and design concerns through Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and corrective actions.
• Oversee validation of DCS, PLC, protection, instrumentation, electrical, and control systems, ensuring control logic, alarms, interlocks, communications, and data acquisition systems perform as designed before commercial operation.
• Establish the site's reliability program by developing asset criticality assessments, RCM strategies, FMEA/FMECA analyses, PM/PdM programs, and equipment reliability standards before commercial operation.
• Direct implementation of condition monitoring technologies, including vibration analysis, thermography, oil analysis, electrical diagnostics, ultrasonics, AOV/MOV testing, and online monitoring systems to establish equipment health baselines.
• Ensure CMMS/EAM asset hierarchies, engineering documentation, as-built drawings, technical procedures, and reliability data are complete to support long-term plant operation.

Your scope of responsibility as the Plant Engineering & Reliability Manager includes the following primary functions:

• Lead the plant's engineering and reliability programs to maximize the safety, availability, reliability, and lifecycle performance of generation assets, BESS, electrical systems, and balance-of-plant equipment.
• Provide technical leadership for complex mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, controls, and plant system issues, partnering with Operations and Maintenance to improve equipment performance.
• Direct RCM, PdM, FMEA/FMECA, asset criticality, and condition monitoring programs using vibration analysis, thermography, oil analysis, electrical diagnostics, ultrasonics, and AOV/MOV testing to optimize reliability and reduce lifecycle costs.
• Monitor plant performance, equipment health, heat rates, reliability metrics, and operational KPIs, implementing engineering solutions to improve reliability, efficiency, and reduce forced outages.
• Lead Root Cause Analysis (RCA) investigations for equipment failures, forced outages, generation losses, and significant operating events, ensuring effective corrective and preventive actions.
• Manage engineering projects, capital improvements, equipment upgrades, life-extension initiatives, and plant modifications, including Management of Change (MOC), while meeting schedule, budget, quality, and safety objectives.
• Oversee engineering support for planned outages, major maintenance, and long-term asset management by integrating equipment condition, operational risk, and reliability priorities into maintenance planning.
• Develop and maintain engineering standards, technical procedures, equipment specifications, CMMS/EAM data, technical documentation, and plant configuration records to support safe, reliable operations.
• Coordinate with OEMs, contractors, engineering firms, and corporate engineering to develop long-term asset strategies, maintenance plans, budgets, and capital forecasts.
• Lead and develop the engineering and reliability team while ensuring compliance with safety, environmental, regulatory, and company requirements and promoting operational excellence and continuous improvement.
