The position requires previous knowledge and experience in LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) and eco-design to lead and implement GRID GSI Onshore / Offshore product environmental process.

Life Cycle Assessment Engineers have an important role to play in designing our products with circularity and low-carbon footprint in mind: utilizing more recycled materials into our products, reducing waste in our designs and our manufacturing, extending the lifetimes of our products, and developing materials and designs that can be more easily recycled. Each of these design changes will come with environmental, performance and cost trade-offs that we need to be able to quantify using digital tools. Furthermore, we need to be able to utilize these insights to make strategic decisions on our technology decarbonization and circularity roadmaps.

The role is global, cross-functional and needs to have a strong understanding of the entire GRID GSI Value Chain.

- Be responsible for the preparation of GRID GSI LCAs of products, services, technologies, and supply chain in accordance with ISO standards.
- Conduct LCAs in SimaPro software.
- Establish an Eco-design procedure as part of the NPI process by implementing tools, dashboards, and KPIs that distill Eco data into actionable insights to inform design, planning, and implementation decisions.
- Establish, measure, and monitor product sustainability KPIs.
- Develop Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and lead the respective certification processes.
- Collaborate across teams including NPI (New Project Introduction) team, Materials Engineering, Sourcing and Manufacturing to automate life cycle inventories from GRID GSI onshore/offshore Wind operations and supply chain.
- Ensure process alignment with GE Vernova Product sustainability lead and wider GE’s LCA practitioners’ community.
- Partner with GRID GSI’s Communications and Commercial teams in developing communication materials related to product environmental assessment and customer product requirements.
- Communicate findings and recommendation to the wider Engineering, Sourcing and Manufacturing teams, translating environmental information into easily understood materials for internal and external stakeholders.

**Key Requirements**:

**Desired Characteristics**:

- Broader xpertise on one or more key topics (e.g., bio-based materials, circular economy, biodiversity, industrial ecology)
- Ability to communicate complex information on sustainability and data to non-technical audiences.
- Strong analytical skills related to data manipulation, analysis, and uncertainty.
- Knowledge or experience supporting environmental claims.
- Knowledge of quantification of environmental impacts and understanding of environmental science and issues related to the environment, circular economy, and eco-design as they relate to products and operations - how important/relevant?
