Descripción de la vacante

Hitachi Energy in Madrid is seeking a Principal Power Systems Architect to lead end-to-end electrical design for hyperscale data centres, spanning HV grid connections through MV distribution to rack power. You will act as the technical authority ensuring coherent, reliable electrification architectures and will collaborate with utilities, EPCs, and OEMs.

The role demands deep power systems expertise, leadership, and a track record with HV grid connections, grid codes, and IEC standards.

Formación

• M.Sc. or Ph.D. in electrical engineering with a focus on power systems; a thesis in grid dynamics, power electronics, or HV system design is a strong differentiator.

Responsabilidades

• Own the overall electrical architecture of large-scale AI data centre campuses and ensure design coherence across all disciplines, from HV grid connection through MV distribution to AC and DC rack power.
• Define study scope and direct work across a structured team of specialist engineers covering five domains: steady-state network planning and power quality; dynamic studies, stability and grid code compliance; electromagnetic transient and insulation coordination; protection, RAMS and asset reliability; and MV/LV system design and P&C.
• Lead grid connection strategy — TSO engagement, connection application technical content, grid code compliance positioning under the applicable national grid code and EU network codes, and ancillary service obligations.
• Provide technical sign-off across all major study deliverables and design work.
• Drive system-level equipment specification: HV/MV transformers, reactive compensation, BESS integration, power electronics topology, and UPS architecture.
• Act as the primary technical interface with external parties — TSOs, / DSOs, grid code authorities, EPCs, independent engineers, and supplying OEMs.
• Identify and manage technical risk across the full project lifecycle, including interface risks between electrical, civil, cooling, and IT infrastructure.
• Mentor and develop the specialist engineering team, building capability across all five study domains over time.
