About The Position

GE Vernova is seeking a Lead Integration Leader for its Wind Blade Subsystem organization. This high-impact technical leadership role leads the integration of complex wind blade subsystems, driving technical strategy from initial architecture through fleet validation. The role serves as a primary technical anchor for cross-functional teams and ensures blade designs are safe, reliable, and globally competitive. It requires navigating technical ambiguity, influencing cross-functional outcomes, and securing alignment across subsystem and related teams. The position drives technical execution and requirements flow-down, coordinates engineering across blade design, manufacturing, fleet performance, interfacing subsystems, and turbine systems, and supports validation and risk mitigation using analysis, testing, manufacturing data, and fleet experience. It also leads daily management for assigned work, contributes to root cause analyses, develops technical documentation and validation reports, communicates trade-offs and progress to stakeholders, represents blade engineering in customer and external-assessor reviews, and contributes to a zero-incident safety culture. Travel up to 20% domestically and internationally is required. GE Vernova provides competitive compensation and professional development. U.S.-based salary is $98,400–$164,000, with geographic differentials in certain areas and eligibility for a discretionary annual bonus. Relocation assistance is not provided.
