Electrical Engineer

Are you an electrical engineer ready to take your skills to the next level in a high-tech, international environment? Aurelia Technologies is looking for a hands-on, development-driven Electrical Engineer to join our Automation and Electrical Engineering team in Lappeenranta and contribute to the development of cutting-edge turbomachinery solutions.

Responsibilities

• Contribute to the electrical design of Aurelia gas turbines, ensuring compliance with relevant standards

• Collaborate with third-party engineering companies to review and align their designs for integration into Aurelia’s products
• Be responsible for the hardware aspects of the automation system (I/O, PLC modules, and overall architecture), coordinating with software engineers, testing, commissioning, and field support teams
• Troubleshoot electrical, power electronics, and automation systems in collaboration with production electricians, testing teams, and field support engineers, providing hands-on guidance where needed

You will be collaborating closely with our engineering, purchasing and product management teams to provide support and guidance in electrical work.
