Beskrivning
Do you want to enable the green energy transition and, together with colleagues, build customized embedded control systems consisting of both software and hardware to meet our customers' and the world's needs for sustainable, flexible, and secure energy?
We are convinced that HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) technology, enabling efficient transmission of electricity at high voltages, is a long-term sustainable solution. The technology is used to transmit energy over long distances and connect electricity networks with minimal losses. In addition to efficient power transmission, HVDC technology helps improve power quality and contributes to the stability of connected power grids. For offshore wind power and long-distance underwater transmission, HVDC is the only realistic alternative.
In this role as a Software Engineer at Hitachi Energy, you will be part of a global HVDC Control & Protection Software team. Our team is responsible for Converter Control and works closely with other domains within Control & Protection, IT/OT, Hardware, and Operations.
As the demand for our technology continues to grow, we are looking for both newly graduated engineers and experienced professionals who are eager to develop their skills and contribute to the future of sustainable energy solutions.
How You'll Make an Impact
Design and develop control functions and software solutions for HVDC Control & Protection systems.
Translate system and customer requirements into reliable engineering solutions.
Participate in design, testing, integration, verification, deployment, and maintenance activities.
Collaborate with teams across Control & Protection, Hardware, IT/OT, and Operations.
Support troubleshooting, testing, and commissioning activities.
Contribute to technical discussions and continuous improvements of methods and tools.
Prepare technical documentation and support customer training activities.
Help ensure safe, reliable, and efficient operation of HVDC systems.
Your Background
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Automation, Computer Engineering, Control Systems, Power Systems, or a related field.
Experience working with automation, control systems, power systems, industrial software, or similar technical areas.
Knowledge of PLCs, Industrial Control Systems, protection systems, or substation automation is beneficial.
Experience with industrial communication protocols such as EtherCAT, ModBus, or similar technologies is an advantage.
Experience with DevOps tools, preferably Azure DevOps, is considered a plus.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in international teams.
Fluency in English, written and spoken.
