**** Status:
** Exempt (Salaried)
** Department:
** Global Service – Service Engineering (Dept. 331)
** Position Summary
** This Product Service and Sustaining Engineer role, with a specialty in Electrical Engineering topics, will drive design efforts to achieve high operational availability, reliability and low life-cycle maintenance cost of Plug Power Electrolyzer systems during product development and early customer deployments. As a key member of the service engineering team, you will build and maintain expert-level technical knowledge and service material related to product operation, performance, and maintenance to assure service technicians, support personnel, and customers are able to troubleshoot and service Plug’s products.

You will be responsible for key service deliverables (e.g., Service BOM/Spares List, Corrective and Preventive Maintenance Procedures, Tools & Equipment Definition, Fault Handling Procedures, etc.) during development and early deployments of new products.

This role will also be responsible for the Sustaining Engineering Efforts for the fleet of Electrolyzer systems actively supporting Client operations globally. You will be expected to support both internal and external troubleshooting efforts during operations, Root Cause Analysis (RCA) in the event of equipment failure, and fleet performance in order to maintain Client satisfaction around Key Performance Indicators (KPI). These activities will require inter-departmental collaboration and third-party supplier relationship building to drive design improvement and maintain equipment up-time.

The ideal candidate for this role will have a strong engineering background with applied experience developing and servicing complex electro-mechanical systems, rectifier and transformer packages, medium voltage power systems, large-scale industrial gas plants, or similar types of systems.

* Leverage field experience to provide the ‘voice of service’, defining reliability and service requirements and assisting with the development and validation of new products.
* Model the expected service costs associated with corrective maintenance, preventive maintenance and inspections of systems and iterate system design with engineering to assure system reliability and service cost objectives are achieved.
* Define maintenance procedures, spares plans, and tools & equipment required to support and service new products.
* Define commissioning procedures for new products in collaboration with product engineering and the commissioning team.
* Lead/assist with root cause analysis and problem resolution efforts using structured methodologies (e.g., Shainin, 8D, DMAIC, etc.) to mitigate customer risks.
* Travel to customer locations to perform technical functions including system testing, validation, troubleshooting, and repair as required; author incident and problem resolution reports; and collaborate with onsite technicians.
* Develop onboard and remote diagnostic and prognostic capability to monitor system operation, identify emerging problems, and determine root cause and appropriate field response.
* Develop and provide technical training to internal staff members including on-site Service Technicians.
