DescriptionFrom 2030 we expect significantly less electricity feedin from largescale generators (coal) but increasing renewable energy generation. The decentralized structure and the higher fluctuation of RE generation and loads pose new challenges for grid restoration after a largescale blackout. We are developing a control system component that supports grid restoration under these conditions through softwarebased awareness and situational recommendations for action.
We are looking for aSoftware Engineer to become part of our Energy Systems team in Dresden.
Join us and:
- Automate operations in the high voltage grid
- Make electrical energy supply more secure
- Engage in shaping the energy transition.
You can expect to:
- Participate in the development of a power grid control center application for network restoration
- Implement realtime algorithms using a modern technology stack in a Linux environment
- Develop and integrate APIs and data models based on CIM (Common Information Model) / CGMES
- Collaborate closely with power grid and control system experts
- Deliver stable reliable secure solutions for control systems
- Pioneer the architecture of highperformance power grid control center applications together with software engineering experts.
ResponsibilitiesWere offering a challenging varied and responsible job in a dynamic team and environment.
Integrate in our global team of around 200 professionals with various levels of experience cultural and educational background. Your home base will be Dresden. Work with direct team members or other global DNV colleagues.
