The Equipment Our Candidates Know
From GE 7HA and 7F gas turbines to Siemens, Mitsubishi and Alstom steam systems, HRSGs, balance-of-plant equipment and advanced DCS platforms, our recruiters know these technologies and screen for hands-on experience with them. Our recruiters speak your language — turbines, HRSGs, BOP, CMMS, outages, LTSA and root cause analysis — so the conversation about your role starts at the technical level.
In battery energy storage, mechanical engineers design and optimize the physical components of the system, working on thermal management, structural integrity and the mechanical integration of batteries and related equipment, while thermal engineers design the cooling systems and temperature controls that keep batteries in their optimal operating range. See BESS Staffing Solutions.
Where These Engineers and Technicians Work
- Combined Cycle (CCGT) and Cogeneration & CHP plants
- Gas Turbine / Simple Cycle / Peaker Plants
- Fossil Fuel & Steam Plants
- District Energy & Utility Infrastructure
- Renewable / Hybrid Facilities and Distributed Generation
- Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
