Microgrid Control Test Engineer - HIL & Automation

Delta Corp; Detroit (MI); Vor Ort; USD 90.000 - 140.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Delta Electronics Americas seeks a skilled test engineer to own the test strategy for the full microgrid control stack, from firmware through RT, SCADA, and EMS. You will build HIL benches, automate regression, and produce evidence for UL 1741-SB, IEEE 1547-2018, and FAT/SAT tests.

You will design and operate HIL test benches, define islanding and ride-through test plans, and drive automated pipelines using Python, TestStand, and Azure DevOps in a CI/CD workflow.

Qualifikationen

• BS/MS in Electrical / Power / Control Systems Engineering.
• 4+ years in controls testing, HIL, or commissioning.
