System Stability Engineer / Network Simulation

Quick Facts

• Role: System Stability Engineer / Network Simulation

• Focus: Network stability analysis and simulation to support secure grid modernization

Description

You will support the engineering organization with strategic stability analyses and operational technical questions to enable the integration of new technologies into the grid while ensuring grid security. You will develop tools and models for today’s and future power systems, run simulations to assess impacts of new assets and customer installations, and provide decision bases for further development of the applicable rules. You will also support research and development projects related to system stability.

Responsibilities

• Develop tools and models for systematic evaluation and quantification of system stability risks in the current and future power grid

• Use simulations to assess how new equipment and customer systems (e.g., grid-forming inverters) affect the grid

• Create decision bases for rulebook development

• Participate in and support research and development projects on system stability

Requirements

• Completed degree in electrical engineering or comparable qualification (Diploma, Master, possibly PhD)

• Experience using network calculation/simulation software (INTEGRAL or PowerFactory)

• Very good understanding of electrical engineering topics, particularly for distribution grid operator environments and system stability phenomena

• Structured, process-oriented way of working

• Ability to structure results clearly, make sound decisions, and communicate content appropriately for different stakeholders

• Ability to gather information from subject-matter experts and other stakeholders

• Willingness to make bold decisions and find new solutions for new challenges

Benefits

• Flexible working hours and flextime account to convert overtime and travel time into free time

• 30 days annual vacation

• Option to work flexibly from home

• Secure employment framework via collective bargaining agreement

• Company pension plan, performance bonus, Christmas and vacation pay, and other benefits
