Global Technical Support Advanced Team Leader (Offshore)
We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Offshore Global Technical Support Advanced Team Leader to assist offshore wind turbine technicians in troubleshooting, maintaining, and optimizing the performance of wind turbines. As a key member of our support team, you will provide real-time technical guidance to the GTS advanced team and support to field technicians working on offshore wind farms. Your role will involve diagnosing issues, assisting with technical procedures, and ensuring that turbines operate at peak efficiency with minimal downtime.
This is primarily a remote position from the wind farms; however, from time to time you may be required to travel to the wind farms, requiring excellent communication skills, technical expertise in wind turbine systems, and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
How You'll Make an Impact
Provide remote support to offshore technicians for troubleshooting, repairs, and maintenance on wind turbines.
Analyze and diagnose technical issues using remote monitoring systems, SCADA data, and field reports.
Guide technicians through complex technical procedures to ensure safe and efficient repair or replacement of components.
Liaise with field engineers, OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and other technical teams to resolve issues in real time.
Monitor turbine performance via remote systems and identify potential issues before they lead to downtime.
Perform remote diagnostics and recommend preventive maintenance strategies to maximize uptime.
Analyze fault reports and alarms generated by wind turbine control systems.
Create and update detailed technical documentation for common troubleshooting scenarios and procedures.
Log and track support cases using the company's ticketing system, ensuring timely resolution and follow-up.
Provide comprehensive incident reports to the engineering and management teams, detailing technical issues, resolutions, and any required follow-up actions.
Collaborate with internal teams such as Engineering & Operations to ensure that all technical solutions comply with safety regulations and operational standards.
Escalate complex technical issues to advanced support or Engineering when necessary and track the resolution progress.
Interface with customers, stakeholders, or site managers as needed to explain technical issues and provide updates on ongoing work.
Assist in managing relationships with turbine manufacturers and third-party vendors for technical support and product knowledge.
What You Bring
Electrical, Mechanical, Renewable Energy qualifications or a related technical field preferred.
Strong understanding of wind turbine systems, including mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and control systems.
Experience with SCADA systems and remote monitoring platforms for wind turbines.
Ability to interpret technical documentation, schematics, and data logs.
Familiarity with industry standards, safety protocols, and operational procedures for wind turbines.
Previous experience working with offshore wind turbines or other renewable energy projects is highly desirable.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills, particularly in explaining complex technical concepts to field technicians and non-technical personnel.
Strong problem-solving and analytical abilities, with a proactive approach to identifying issues and recommending solutions.
Ability to work effectively under pressure, manage multiple tasks, and prioritize issues based on urgency and impact.
Team-oriented mindset, with a commitment to collaborative problem-solving.
