Senior Mechanical Engineer (Power Generation / Gas-to-Power)

We're hiring a senior mechanical engineer who has actually delivered power generation and gas-to-power projects at a top EPC, PMC, owner-operator, or equipment OEM. Think combined cycle, simple cycle and peakers, gas-to-power for data centers and behind-the-meter campuses, LNG, and cogeneration, with the rotating equipment and balance of plant that goes with them.

If your career has been refining or petrochem static equipment with no power work, this isn't the right fit.

This is a hands-on role. You'll do real mechanical engineering on our delivery work for the parts our software can't handle yet, you'll be the quality check on what the software does produce, and you'll shape where the product goes next. Three jobs in one, and the mix shifts as the product gets better.

- Do real mechanical engineering on our FEL-2 and early-phase delivery work, owning the parts our software can't handle yet so projects ship

- Be the quality gate on Candid's automated mechanical outputs: catch what's wrong before it reaches a client, and feed it back so the product gets sharper

- Define how equipment scope gets developed and validated through FEED on power and gas-to-power projects, and what "good" looks like

- Review and validate mechanical content across equipment datasheets, vendor packages, and discipline handoffs

- Build repeatable checks that catch scope gaps and inconsistencies early

- Map where mechanical rework happens, why it happens, and what inputs drive it

- Clarify interface points with Process, Piping, I&C, and Electrical

- 7+ years at a large scale EPC, PMC, owner-operator, or OEM, with most of it on power generation or gas-to-power

- You've personally owned mechanical equipment datasheet development and vendor package review through FEED

- Strong on rotating and power-plant equipment: gas turbines, steam turbines, HRSGs, pumps, compressors, fans, and balance of plant mechanical (cooling systems, fuel gas conditioning, water treatment)

- Hands-on with equipment specification to API and ASME (API 610, 611, 612, 617; ASME VIII; B31.1 power piping)

- Experience coordinating OEM turbine and major equipment packages (GE Vernova, Siemens Energy, Mitsubishi Power, or similar)

- You spot inconsistencies across datasheets, P&IDs, and vendor packages fast

- Taking equipment from FEED into procurement and detailed engineering
