Job description
Your day will involve leading a root cause investigation for a key client like Aramco or ADNOC, transferring critical field knowledge across a cross-functional team, and mentoring junior engineers on maintenance best practices all while serving as the trusted technical expert between Siemens Energy and its most important Middle East partners. The impact of your work extends beyond any single fix: you keep critical compression assets running reliably for clients across the region, strengthen Siemens Energy's reputation as a technical partner of choice, and directly support the broader mission of decarbonizing industrial processes.
How You'll Make an Impact
- Own the technical client relationship for major Middle East accounts (Aramco, Qatar Gas, ADNOC), serving as the primary point of contact and trusted technical advisor for all compression-related matters.
- Lead complex troubleshooting and root cause analysis on compressors and ancillary systems, applying structured methodologies (FMEA, Fault Tree Analysis, Kepner-Tregoe, 5 Whys) to resolve high-impact client issues.
- Coordinate cross-functional and cross-regional teams of internal and external technical experts, ensuring the fast, effective flow of information between client sites, Product Integrity, and Core Technology teams.
- Partner with Sales, Bid Management, and Service teams as the regional subject matter expert, providing technical input that shapes proposals, service strategy, and client-facing decisions.
- Maintain rigorous technical documentation, including service reports, maintenance logs, method statements, and equipment records, to ensure traceability and continuity across engagements.
- Develop the next generation of field talent by training junior field service engineers and client personnel on routine maintenance and troubleshooting practices.
What You Bring
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (or an equivalent technical field), paired with 15+ years of hands-on experience across rotating equipment design, factory acceptance testing, controls design, package design, site commissioning, maintenance, and field troubleshooting.
- Proven expertise in root cause analysis leadership, with direct experience applying methodologies such as FMEA, Fault Tree Analysis, Kepner-Tregoe, and 5 Whys to resolve complex equipment failures.
- Deep technical knowledge of rotating equipment components, including dry gas seals, compressors, couplings, and bearings, along with practical experience in vibration monitoring and site performance testing.
- Instrumentation and controls validation experience gained through hands-on involvement in startups, overhauls, and precision measurement techniques.
- Strong client-facing communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly to audiences ranging from experienced rotating equipment engineers to non-technical stakeholders, in fluent English.
- Flexibility and resilience for demanding field environments, including willingness to travel locally and regionally (~30%) and to work flexible hours to support urgent client needs.
