  • Troubleshoot operational issues and take corrective action within established procedures.
  • Maintain accurate operating logs and operational records.
  • Comply with all company safety policies, procedures, and regulatory requirements.

Requirements
  • Prior experience working in the control room of a conventional, simple-cycle or fossil-fueled steam generating facility.
  • Experience operating high-pressure steam boilers for electric generation.
  • Experience using DCS systems to monitor and control boiler and generating operations.
  • Thorough understanding of boiler operations, combustion control, steam systems, and generator load management.
  • Ability to make sound operational decisions in a fast-paced environment.
  • Valid driver's license.
  • Ability to pass pre-employment screening and participate in random drug and alcohol testing programs.
  • Strong communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills.

Preferred Experience
  • Experience with Emerson Ovation DCS systems.
  • Experience operating tangentially fired natural gas boilers.
  • Previous utility, merchant generation, or independent power producer experience.
