A Snapshot of Your Day As a Project Lead, you will be the driving force behind the complete software development process during the project execution phase. You will actively manage a team of software engineers to develop and integrate innovative HVDC Control and Protection systems. You will ensure customer requirements are met and effective testing strategies are developed to ensure customer satisfaction. How You''ll Make an Impact Manage CP software development process from project start up to the final customer acceptance tests ensuring compliance with all relevant system requirements Set up and drive consistent requirements engineering throughout the project execution Guide a team of software engineers through the software development and integration phase Define acceptance tests, coordinate execution of offsite and on site acceptance tests, create test reports and track open points Track development and test progress and report to project management on a regular basis Promote a model based engineering approach and support an efficient use of X in the loop environments to achieve project goals in terms of time and quality Work closely with project managers and project leads to create unique value for our customers Support tender teams in bid projects by planning and calculation of integration and testing tasks What You Bring University degree in Engineering (e.g., Electrical or Automation Engineering) or relevant technical field. Master''s or PhD in HVDC controls, AC/DC Power systems, Power electronics, or Wind power converters is a plus. Several years of hands on experience in CP systems for large industrial converter applications (engineering/commissioning in HVDC or similar electrical converter systems). Alternatively, 5+ years in overall technical project management during PhD studies. Good knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink and GIT version control in Software in the loop or Hardware in the loop test environments or a solid working knowledge of power system modeling and analysis tools like PSCAD/EMTDC or RSCAD. Flexibility to work on site for several weeks during customer acceptance tests. Experience in leading small engineering or commissioning teams is a plus. Proactivity in driving topics and resolving issues Full proficiency in English. German is a plus. About the Team Our Grid Technology division enables a reliable, sustainable, and digital grid.
