Jobbeschreibung

Job Description Summary

Systems engineering is a cross-functional engineering discipline centered on an approach, mindset, and process. All activities that consider both the business and the technical needs of the customers with the goal of providing a quality product that meets the user’s needs. The discipline that executes a robust process of design, creation, and optimization of systems, consisting of identification and quantification of system requirements, creation of alternate system design concepts, performance of design trade studies, selection and implementation of the best designs and verification that the design is properly integrated and executed. Process that proceeds from concept to production to operation.

Job Description

As a member of GE Vernova's Power Conversion and Storage (PCS) team, the successful candidate will be an active contributor supporting GE Vernova's Renewable business initiatives related to power systems and power electronics equipment and services.

Essential Responsibilities

• Provide product development and technical analysis related to power electronic and power systems control of renewable generation, battery energy storage systems, and large industrial drives through modeling and analyzing control performance.
• Expertise in developing models in PSS/E, PSLF, PowerFactory, PSCAD and other modeling tools.
• Expertise in tuning controller to achieve desired performance requirement established in grid codes.
• Develop technical understanding of electrical characteristics of PCS power electronics products and their integration to electrical grids.
• Support customers with power systems engineering expertise; including equipment design, specification studies, performance studies, commissioning support, troubleshooting, and failure mode analyses.
• Supporting continuous development of transmission and distribution connected products based on evolving codes and standards through participation in industry standards groups and leading innovative approaches to power equipment design.
• Effectively communicate to both internal and external customers by preparing detailed written reports or presentations describing analyses performed, solutions developed, and customer value propositions.
• Support domestic and international projects across regions depending on overall market needs and communicate customer needs and values back to GE Vernova.
• Actively participate on and support project teams ensuring high quality deliverables, budget, and on-time project metrics are met.
• Actively participate in a working environment where teamwork, quality, customer service and innovation are prized.

Qualifications/Requirements

• Master’s or PhD degree in electrical or electric power engineering, or related field of study.
• Bachelor’s in electrical or electric power engineering with significant employment experience in related position will be considered.
• Significant professional experience in an engineering field and in MATLAB, PSCAD, PSSE, PSLF, Python, C. C#

Desired

• Demonstrated modeling and technical experience in technical performance analysis of electric power systems with power electronic sources or loads.Experience in planning and execution of technical projects relevant to electric power systems and equipment design.
• Experience with developing model in electromechanical domain like PSS/E, PSLF, PowerFactory etc (for Inverter Based Resource or other Power Electronics based models)
• Excellent interpersonal communication skills (e.g. ability to effectively communicate with all levels of GE Vernova and customer/plant staff).
• Understanding of grid systems interactions with power plant equipment and controls.
• Experience with time-domain simulation tools (ATP/EMTP desired, PSCAD/EMTDC required, and MATLAB desired).
• Experience with Hardware inthe loop testing (HIL) of control system
• Experience with programming environments to understand controller code and complex simulation modeling (Python or Fortran desired)
• Demonstrated application of complex mathematics and engineering to real-world (not merely academic) electric power problems.
• Experience with time-domain simulation tools, specifically programming, tuning, and using user-written “black box” models in PSCAD for wind turbine generators, solar inverters, battery energy storage systems (BESS), or other advanced power electronic based systems.
• PhD Degree in Electrical Engineering or related science
• Industry reputation, prior IEEE/CIGRE published articles related to practical (not overly-academic) topics, participation in industry standards working groups.
• Awarded patents on HV power equipment applications a plus.
• Experience with modeling and simulating inverter-based technologies in PSSE, PSLF, PowerFactory using both generic and user written models.

If you apply for UK:

Applications from job seekers who require sponsorship to work in the UK are welcome and will be considered alongside all other applications. However, non-EU/EEA candidates may not be appointed to a post if a suitably qualified, experienced and skilled EU/EEA candidate is available to take up the post, as the employing body is unlikely, in these circumstances, to satisfy the Resident Labour Market Test.
