Control Room Operator (CRO) – Gas Turbine O&M Supervision GE TM2500+

Location: Southaven, Mississippi (Memphis area)

Work Location: On-site

Schedule: 12-hour shifts on a rotating day/night schedule (about 20 days per month)

Start Date: Immediate / As Soon as Possible

Important: Applicants must currently reside in the United States and already possess valid U.S. work authorization. PRISMECS is not offering visa sponsorship or immigration assistance for this position. Candidates who require current or future sponsorship will not be considered.

PRISMECS is seeking an experienced Control Room Supervisor to provide supervisory, advisory, and technical oversight for a fleet of GE TM2500+ Gen8 aeroderivative gas turbines at a large power generation site.

The Control Room Operator monitors unit operation from the control room, and supervises and reports on the O&M work carried out by the site’s O&M contractor.

This is a supervisory and technical oversight role, not a hands-on operations role.

• Monitor all units in real time from the control room HMI: load, temperatures, pressures, vibration, alarms and events.
• Record shift data and send hourly and daily status updates (load, running hours, alarms, unit status).
• Identify abnormal trends and alarms early and report them straight away to the Site Lead and Project Manager.
• Record all trips, starts, stops and breaker events with accurate timestamps and alarm/event sequences.
• Supervise and verify maintenance work carried out by the O&M contractor, and check it against OEM requirements (GEK manuals, C&E matrix).
• Complete daily and weekly inspection checklists according to the OEM maintenance schedule.
• Support data collection for trip reports, root cause analyses and weekly/monthly supervisory reports.
• Carry out a clear shift handover, with the handover report completed every shift.
• Follow all site HSE rules, PPE requirements and LOTO procedures, and report any safety concerns.

• 5+ years of control room operations experience on gas turbines, preferably GE aeroderivative units (TM2500, LM2500 or LM6000).
• Working knowledge of GE control systems and HMI (Mark VIe or RX3i, CIMPLICITY).
• Good understanding of gas turbine systems: fuel gas, lube oil, water injection, generator and excitation, and auxiliaries.
• Able to read alarm logs and trends and P&IDs, and to understand cause-and-effect logic.
• Strong reporting and communication skills in English, written and verbal.
• Comfortable with 12-hour rotating day and night shifts.
• Must currently reside in the United States.
• Must be authorized to work in the US.
• Fluent English communication skills, including reading, writing, and speaking.

• TM2500 or LM2500 OEM training, or experience at commissioning or start-up sites.
• Experience in a supervisory or oversight role over an O&M contractor.
• Strong troubleshooting, reporting, and technical-observation skills.
• OSHA 10 or 30, or similar safety certification.

The ideal candidate is safety-focused, dependable, detail-oriented, accountable, and able to remain composed during alarms or abnormal operational events. The individual must communicate effectively, work well within a multicultural team, and promptly escalate technical issues.

Scope clarification: This position is supervisory and advisory only. It does not include preventive or corrective maintenance, repairs, wrenching, parts replacement, special-tool operation, or other hands-on maintenance activities.
