Job Description Summary The Control Automation System Principal Engineer serves as the technical authority for automation systems, industrial controls, and operational technologies across the organization. This role leads the architecture, design, implementation, and governance of advanced control systems that enable safe, reliable, and efficient manufacturing or operational performance. The Principal Engineer mentors engineering teams, drives innovation, establishes automation standards, and leads strategic initiatives aligned with business objectives. Job Description The world is electrifying faster than ever, and at GE Vernova, we're building the technologies that make it possible. As a Principal Engineer in Control & Automation Systems, you'll serve as a technical authority shaping the future of High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) and digital substation technology. This is a role where your expertise directly influences how power reaches millions of people - and where your ideas help define what comes next. What You'll Do You'll lead the technical design, architecture, and delivery of advanced control and automation systems for HVDC and digital substation environments. Specifically, you will: Own the technical solution for control and automation systems end-to-end - from requirements definition and architecture through to implementation, validation, and governance - ensuring designs meet customer requirements and comply with IEC 61850, IEC 60870-5, and related power system communication standards. Lead HVDC control and protection design, including network and cybersecurity architecture, Substation Configuration Language (SCL) data modelling, protection logic, interlocking logic, and integration of Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs), bay controllers, merging units, and Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs) within digital substations. Drive engineering excellence by identifying and implementing improvements to methods, tools, processes, and systems that enhance customer value, and by upholding Safety, Quality, Delivery, and Cost (SQDC) principles across the team. Collaborate and influence across project teams, New Product Introduction (NPI), utilities, and vendors to support system integration, testing, and commissioning; provide technical consultation to cross-functional teams on manufacturing, supply chain, and field challenges. Shape the profession - represent GE Vernova externally at industry conferences and in professional bodies such as IEC and CIGRE; contribute to the Patent Evaluation Board (PEB); mentor junior engineers; and support hiring, promotion, and succession planning within Engineering & Technology. Who We're Looking For You're a seasoned power systems engineer with significant hands-on experience in substation automation and HVDC control systems - someone who combines deep technical authority with the ability to lead, influence, and inspire. Required A formal education in Electrical Engineering, Control Systems, or a related discipline is valued, but we are most interested in your total experience and professional achievements. Significant experience in power system automation or substation control engineering, including substantial experience with IEC 61850-based systems. In-depth knowledge of IEC 61850 protocols and concepts, including Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS), Generic Object-Oriented Substation Events (GOOSE), SCL, and Sampled Values. Strong understanding of communication networks, including Ethernet, Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs), and Parallel Redundancy Protocol/High-availability Seamless Redundancy (PRP/HSR) redundancy architectures. Proven experience configuring and integrating IEDs, protection relays, substation bay controllers, merging units, and HMI systems. Hands-on experience with Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and Distributed Control System (DCS) platform integration. Working knowledge of Layer 2 and Layer 3 communication protocols, including IPv4, Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), Demilitarised Zone (DMZ), Virtual Private Network (VPN), Distribution Management System/Advanced Distribution Management System (DMS/ADMS), DNP3, and Modbus. Experience using IEC 61850 System Configurators and IED Connectivity Packages. Preferred Active participation in IEC, CIGRE, or equivalent industry standards working groups. Experience leading root cause analysis for complex Voltage Source Converter (VSC) control and protection issues. Familiarity with cybersecurity design principles for industrial control systems. Why GE Vernova At GE Vernova, we're on a mission to electrify and decarbonize the world. That means building technologies that are reliable, sustainable, and transformative.

Principal Test Engineer Based in Stevenage Circa 64,000 Hybrid, 2 to 3 days on site You've spent years making sure things actually work before they're trusted with something that matters. Now you want to lead that thinking, not just execute someone else's test plan. This is a senior test engineering role inside a design team. You won't be testing what someone else designed after the fact, you'll be shaping testability into the design from the start, then owning the equipment, the coverage, and the trade-offs that follow. What you'll actually be doing You'll specify pass-out tests, in-service checks and BIT routines, and you'll make sure they're built into the product from the design stage rather than bolted on afterwards. You'll lead a small team of test architects, act as a senior voice within the test department, and work directly with the Chief Design Engineer on the cost versus coverage decisions that shape the whole programme. Day to day, that means: Owning complex test equipment specification and delivery, end-to-end Generating and managing lower-level test requirements for design teams, including test access, BIT coverage and timing, and factory test functionality Analysing and modelling systems to determine test coverage and generate diagnostic instructions Leading a team of test architects and providing functional leadership within the wider department Working closely with design and manufacturing teams to close testability gaps before they become problems What you'll need to bring Substantial experience in test equipment design, product testability, or electrical/electronic engineering Solid grounding in at least one of digital electronics and microprocessor systems, analogue electronics, electronics testing, or ATE/test equipment design Proven experience leading and influencing people, not just managing a task list Comfort gathering requirements, running projects, and managing relationships with senior stakeholders If you read that list and thought "yes, that's me", you're exactly who this is for. If you're still building toward it, this probably isn't the right fit yet, and that's fine. Worth knowing Circa 64,000 depending on experience Bonus up to 21% Pension up to 14% combined contribution Due to the nature of the work, this role requires British citizenship or dual UK nationality Not actively looking? No problem. If this sounds like a better version of what you're already doing, it's worth a quiet conversation, nothing more.
