I am responsible for creating the product strategy for rotors and repairs of the 4000+ GE B/E Class gas turbines installed globally to maximize success of our customers. I help customers find solutions to make their gas turbine power plants more efficient and reliable by maintaining the rotor and repairing their capital components. I am also accountable for creating the technology roadmap to create the new capabilities required by our customers and ensure that tailored solutions maximize customer value. Once the projects are identified, I build the business cases to secure funding, manage the program budgets, collaborate with design engineering to make strategic technical decisions and work with the commercial teams to introduce new solutions to our customers. Below are few examples. · Manage and execute $10M investment to develop and commercialize repair capabilities for new products to optimize customer’s lifecycle costs. Delivered $25M of revenue at 65% contribution margin of repair service offerings.· Led engineering team to successfully complete Conceptual and Detailed Design Reviews of a $4.5M project to optimize and drive cost out of rotor end of life solution. Launched and released optimized 9E, and 7E rotor life extension solutions that have driven contribution margin accretion by driving this cross functional effort through the Product Introduction (Commercial + Technical + Marketing) multi gate cycle.
