Description du poste

Automation Engineer

What you'll do:

You will work at the intersection of control systems, industrial automation, and electrical systems, ensuring our technology operates efficiently, autonomously, and reliably in real environments. This is a hands‑on role across the full development cycle: from concept and prototyping to commissioning and deployment.

Your main responsibilities will be to:

• Commission and integrate sensors, actuators, inverters, and DAQ systems into cohesive, operational setups
• Configure and deploy industrial control hardware (PLCs, IPCs, HMIs, DAQ systems)
• Develop and implement control strategies for energy optimization in power systems
• Design and build automation architectures using industrial protocols (Ethernet based Fieldbus)
• Develop and tune control strategies for hydrokinetic turbines and power electronics
• Design systems for data acquisition, remote monitoring, and diagnostics
• Ensure robust system performance across signal integrity, communication reliability, and EMC
• Collaborate closely across mechanical, electrical, and software engineering

Who you are:

You enjoy building real systems where hardware, software, and field reality meet and you take pride in seeing a commissioned system run reliably in the field.

We are looking for the following qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Embedded Systems, or a related field.
• Experience designing custom PCBs.
• Proficiency in C/C++ for embedded programming.
• Experience with ARM-based MCUs.
• Familiarity with integrating embedded systems with cloud or web-based platforms.
• Understanding of mechanical and mechatronic systems is considered a merit.
• Experience troubleshooting electronics.

Bonus

• Knowledge of control theory (e.g. PID, system dynamics)
• Experience with SCADA systems or remote monitoring platforms
• Familiarity with low- to medium-voltage electrical systems
• Experience in harsh or remote environments

Why Join SeaPattern?

Real Impact Your work directly increases renewable energy production in operating hydropower plants. Not in theory, in real facilities, with measurable results.

Build What Matters You will work hands‑on with deeptech systems combining hardware and advanced analytics, together with a tight team of engineers, scientists, and builders.

Grow Fast Through Ownership You won’t be a small part of a large system. You will own real problems end‑to‑end from idea and design to testing and implementation and grow through doing.

Recruitment process

Full-time position based at SeaPattern’s office in Linköping, Sweden. A valid EU and Swedish work permit is required.
