Zusammenfassung

ENERCON in Rostock seeks a Senior Expert Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) to own system-level requirements and drive integration into hybrid power plants. You will lead MiL/HiL qualification, coordinate with suppliers, and steer technology scouting for future BESS capabilities.

You bring a Master’s or PhD in Electrical Engineering or Mechatronics, deep BESS/power-converter experience, and proficiency with Matlab/Simulink. English communication is essential for global collaboration.

Qualifikationen

• Master's or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a comparable field.
• Experience with industrial BESS systems and/or power converters; knowledge of grid-following, grid-supporting, or grid-forming functionalities is a plus.
• Proficient in requirements engineering, test specification development, and the V-model approach including verification and validation.
• Experience with model-based development tools such as Matlab/Simulink, ideally including System Composer.
• Systems thinking, modularization, and clear handling of complexity.
• Lateral leadership and sound decisions in dynamic environments.
• Strong track record in supplier management and driving technical collaboration.
• Effective written and spoken English communication.

Aufgaben

• Own system-level requirement specification for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and develop it further.
• Build and refine the system-level test specification for BESS and ensure it meets evolving needs.
• Integrate BESS power units into the hybrid control power plant, covering full system functionality.
• Lead qualification using MiL and HiL methods — from concept and product development across PDP stages to series optimization.
• Steer external BESS suppliers with technical authority and align with system requirements and project goals.
• Actively scout emerging technologies relevant to BESS and evaluate their potential for future integration.
