System Study Engineer

Description
You will be part of Power Quality Global Center of Competence team in Västerås.
FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Systems) technology enables power system owners to increase capacity in the existing power system while improving electrical stability.
As a result, more power reaches the customer with a minimum environmental impact and at lower investment costs compared to alternative solutions.
Power Quality Global Center of Competence is now expanding the team which develops and delivers this state-of-the-art technology to customers in the global market.
We are looking for you who want to be part of enabling grids for the future.
As a global leader in FACTS technology, we supply power quality solutions to customers all over the world.
That is why we are looking for you who want to work with advanced technology in an international project-based organization.
As a System Study Engineer, your mission will cover several technical areas, which provides great opportunities for varied and developing work.
Your main task will be to work with power system studies in various simulation platforms to analyze FACTS plants and verify their performance in the connected grid.
Included in these studies are voltage regulation and operation during wide-area disturbances, power oscillation damping, sub-synchronous interactions, Geomagnetically Induced Current, failure investigations, advanced controller tuning and more.
As our plants are built using advanced power electronics based upon the latest technology, we can offer great opportunities to strengthen your skills within converter technology and advanced automated control.
Your responsibilities

Undertaking various simulation studies individually or as part of a team on daily basis.
Making reports out of studies and presenting to customers.
Understanding customer needs by reading customer specifications and participating in customer meetings.
Coordination and communication with all disciplines involved in project and tender deliveries as well as in close connection to research and development activities.
