Project Control Engineer – Power Conversion

Plan and execute control engineering aspects of projects, including hardware and software concepts, specifications, and documentation. Coordinate technical interfaces between customers, sub-suppliers, and internal teams. Define and evaluate hardware interfaces, including electrical components and design reviews. Develop and implement control software, including testing on real-time simulation platforms. Perform commissioning, testing, and customer training on-site. Provide technical support during project execution and after delivery. Support the sales team in the preparation of technical concepts and tender documentation. Collaborate closely with control, system, and mechanical engineering teams as well as project management.

At our Competence Center “Power Converter Solutions”, we are at the forefront of developing, manufacturing, installing, and commissioning high-power electronic converters for applications such as STATCOM, rail power supply systems, and grid interconnections. Our solutions play a key role in enabling the integration of renewable energy into modern power grids while improving overall system efficiency.

• Degree in Electrical Engineering (Bachelor’s or Master’s, from a university or university of applied sciences)

• Hands-on experience with MATLAB / Simulink is essential

• Strong knowledge of process control and software design (e.g. OLC, CLC, Protection, HMI)

• Familiarity with industrial communication protocols (e.g. OPC, IEC 61850, IEC 60870-5-104, DNP3) is a plus

• Initial experience in testing, commissioning, or applied engineering is an advantage

• Willingness to travel globally for commissioning assignments (approx. 20% of working time)
