About the role

Responsibilities

  • Design and optimize natural gas pipeline systems, including high-pressure supply lines, metering and regulating stations, valves, pigging facilities, and tie-ins to gas turbines and backup generation.
  • Perform detailed engineering analysis (stress, hydraulic, surge, materials) using tools such as CAESAR II, Aspen, or equivalent to ensure integrity, flow capacity, and safety under varying loads.
  • Develop P&IDs, specifications, construction drawings, BOMs, and test plans for gas infrastructure; support procurement, fabrication, installation, and commissioning.
  • Ensure full compliance with pipeline safety regulations (PHMSA, DOT 49 CFR 192/195), ASME B31.3/B31.8, NFPA, and local environmental/air quality standards.
  • Collaborate with power generation, electrical, facilities, and construction teams to integrate gas systems with turbine installations, emergency shutdown systems, and leak detection.
  • Conduct risk assessments, HAZOP studies, failure mode analysis, and root cause investigations for gas-related incidents or near-misses.
  • Interface with utility providers, regulators, and contractors for permitting, inspections, and ongoing integrity management programs (ILI, direct assessment, etc.).
  • Drive continuous improvement in fuel gas system reliability, efficiency, and safety for current and future expansions of on-site power generation.

Basic Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Pipeline Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related field (Master’s or PE license preferred).
  • 1+ years of experience in natural gas pipeline design, operation, or integrity management, preferably in power generation, industrial, or energy infrastructure projects.

Preferred Skills and Experience

  • Direct experience supporting natural gas turbine power plants or data center/hyperscale backup power systems.
  • Familiarity with large-scale on-site generation facilities (turbines >10 MW) and integration with AI/HPC loads.
  • Experience with permitting, regulatory compliance, and environmental monitoring for gas infrastructure.
  • Knowledge of leak detection systems, odorization, corrosion control, and emergency response planning.
  • Track record of improving system reliability or reducing risks in mission-critical fuel gas delivery.
