The opportunity HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) is a product group within Hitachi Energy that develops, manufactures, and sells DC transmission systems on a global market. HVDC technology is used to transmit electricity over long distances and to connect offshore wind farms to the grid. We are looking for two project engineers to join the Harmonic Analysis team within HVDC. We welcome applications from both entry-level and experienced candidates. If this opportunity interests you, we encourage you to apply even if you do not meet every requirement. In this role, you will work with harmonic analysis, power quality, and electrical system studies for HVDC converter stations. You will collaborate across projects and contribute to the successful integration of HVDC stations with electrical networks and offshore wind farms. The most important qualities for this role are your engineering mindset and your willingness to learn and explore new areas. How you'll make an impact Collaborate in project teams responsible for the electrical system design of HVDC converter stations. Perform harmonic studies below 15 kHz and support compliance measurements during commissioning. Evaluate whether specified harmonic power quality requirements can be fulfilled. Analyze small-signal stability in the harmonic range when connecting an HVDC station to a network or wind farm. Propose active or passive mitigation measures, such as harmonic filters or harmonic dampers, when needed. Calculate harmonic stresses in HVDC station main circuit equipment and assess whether mitigation measures or redesigns are required. Develop tools in Excel, MATLAB, or Python to efficiently analyze and process large amounts of data. Participate in technical discussions and negotiations with colleagues, customers, and suppliers. Present your work and contribute to discussions on challenges and the path forward. Write clear and professional technical reports describing complex study work and results.
