Evaluate equipment behavior under different operating regimes, including thermal cycling/load-following and variable wind/transient loads
Support technical due diligence, independent engineering, and owner’s engineering scopes
Review turbine systems, drivetrain components, and plant configurations
Evaluate operations and maintenance practices, major maintenance strategies, asset condition, performance, and reliability risk
Validate technical inputs to financial models, including availability, performance, and lifecycle costs
Participate in site visits, inspections, and technical interviews
Perform root cause analysis for rotating equipment failures and identify failure modes, recurrence risks, and mitigation strategies
Interpret RCA findings and failure history to inform asset-level risk, performance expectations, and investment decisions
Provide independent technical judgment and constructively challenge assumptions and conclusions
Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and support client diligence discussions, workshops, and technical reviews
Contribute to technical reports and client deliverables
Mentor team members and build internal rotating machinery capability
