Job Description Summary

Lead Engineer SCADA & EDGE 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 users 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.

Impacts departmental operations and responsible for planning/execution. The role has some autonomy but is focused on execution of activities within an operating discipline covered by standard functional practices and procedures. Some judgment may be required but this is typically with guidance.

Job Description

Roles and Responsibilities

• Perform requirements engineering for new farm level closed loop EDGE applications and analytics, including quantification and documentation of requirements and design tradeoffs for wind turbine / wind-farm level applications using Industrial and GEV standard protocols. The goal is to develop scalable, reliable and robust farm level applications for SCADA & EDGE software platforms working together with Design and Development teams considering system level impact and lifecycle aspects that meet customers’ requirements and quality standards.
• Design EDGE application software platform features and applications with analytics / optimization algorithm in C#, .NET, and Python code, as well as consolidate test case for functional and system level testing.
• Verify & validate implementation of new apps/algorithms/software features and applications by executing test cases either via simulation or remote testing on actual customer turbines.Deploy and follow established process to containerize algorithm as an app and deploy in an actual wind farm in the Renewables EDGE / Other industry standard EDGE OS environment and verify the algorithm performance.
• Execute routine analyses using vested methods and technologies and/or contributes to technological developments in teams under supervision.
• Contribute to product configuration management, sustaining and customer support. Support product development program, design review discussions and present relevant design details to chief engineers for evaluation and approval.
• Collaborate with other Engineering and Global Research Center teams on new energy system control technology and lead design implementation efforts. The applicant may be called to travel up to 10% of the time to support product validation, product and customer discussions.

Required Qualifications
