Steam Turbine Program Manager – Boiler-Turbine Integration

The Steam Turbine Program Manager – Boiler-Turbine Integration is responsible for overseeing the end-to-end execution of steam turbine system projects involving integrated operation with marine or industrial boilers. This includes coordination of design, procurement, fabrication, installation, testing, and commissioning to ensure reliable power and propulsion system performance. The role serves as the technical and managerial lead across multidisciplinary teams, bridging boiler manufacturers, turbine OEMs, and system integrators.

Key Responsibilities:

• • Lead and manage the complete lifecycle of steam turbine programs involving boiler-turbine integration for marine propulsion or auxiliary power generation.

  • Oversee system design reviews, performance modeling, and specification alignment between boiler output characteristics and turbine operating envelopes.

  • Coordinate engineering activities related to piping layout, control logic (steam admission and extraction), valve selection, and lube/condensate system integration.

  • Collaborate with OEM partners, vessel/system designers, and classification societies (ABS, DNV, USCG) to ensure compliance with marine engineering codes and performance standards.

  • Develop and manage project schedules, budgets, and resource plans, ensuring on-time and on-budget execution.

  • Supervise fabrication, installation, and commissioning teams to ensure seamless integration and functional testing of steam systems.

  • Drive risk mitigation strategies across technical interfaces such as pressure control, thermal expansion, startup sequencing, and turbine trip conditions.

  • Review and approve Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT), Site Acceptance Tests (SAT), hydrostatic and steam blow tests.

  • Manage technical documentation, performance guarantees, and handover deliverables to shipowners or plant operators.

  • Serve as the key point of contact for customers, stakeholders, and internal leadership regarding program status and issue resolution.

Key Focus Areas:

• • Boiler and Steam Turbine Integration for Marine or Industrial Use

  • Steam Cycle Design and Component Compatibility (HRSG, Condensers, PRVs, Bypass Loops)

  • Project Management of EPC or OEM-Driven Power System Installations

  • Class Society Compliance (ABS, DNV, USCG) and Marine System Engineering

  • System Testing, Commissioning, and Operational Optimization

Qualifications:

• • Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Marine Engineering, or Power Systems Engineering.

  • Minimum 8–12 years of experience in steam turbine systems, including at least 3–5 years in a program or project management role.

  • Solid technical background in boiler-steam turbine integration, thermodynamics, and process control.

  • Experience with marine propulsion systems, auxiliary power modules, or land-based steam power generation systems.

  • Familiarity with relevant codes and standards: ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code, API 612, ISO 2314, etc.

Preferred Skills:

• • PMP Certification or equivalent project management training.

  • Experience with OEM platforms such as Siemens, Mitsubishi, MAN Energy Solutions, or Doosan.

  • Proficiency in thermal modeling tools (e.g., EBSILON, GateCycle, or equivalent).

  • Familiarity with shipboard automation systems and control integration.

  • Strong stakeholder management and cross-functional coordination skills.

Work Environment:

• • Work may be split between office, shipyard, testing facility, and customer sites.

  • Requires occasional travel to project locations, OEM facilities, or client review meetings.

  • Use of PPE required in commissioning and fabrication areas.
