It takes the brightest minds to be a technology leader. It takes imagination to create green energy for the generations to come. At Siemens Gamesa we make real what matters, join our global team.

Siemens Gamesa has a vision for renewable energy: we believe in the power of nature and technology. Help us to be ready to face the energy challenges of tomorrow and make a green footprint – join the team in creating a better future for us on our planet.

We focus on hiring the best people, wherever they may be in the world. We pride ourselves on the flexibility we offer to our employees and are committed to building a workforce that can grow with the company. Siemens Gamesa is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

In our culture of trust, we focus on empowerment, diversity and continuous learning. Valuing our people is what makes us one global team, with our colleagues’ safety at the heart of our organization.

For our team in charge for Grid Support and Maintenance we are looking for a self-driven and proactive Power System Engineer. The team is spread across the US, Spain, and Denmark. We welcome candidates in either of these locations.

How To Contribute To Our Vision

As a power system engineer, you will work with cross-functional projects and you will be the link between the test department and internal and external stakeholders. Interactions can be related to either technical or commercial aspects of our projects. More specifically, your areas of responsibility will among others cover:

• Grid Code and Developer-requirement analysis
• Modeling of Offshore Wind Farms; these models will be used to perform steady state, dynamic, transient and frequency domain simulations
• Perform Steady State simulations to evaluate compliance to requirements related to: Short Circuit, PQ capability, Voltage limits, overloading of equipment, other simulations in the steady state domain.
• Perform Dynamic simulations (RMS) to evaluate compliance to requirements such as FRT, voltage stability, frequency stability, other simulations in the dynamic domain.
• Perform Transient simulations (EMT) to evaluate compliance to requirements such as Inrush current, fast transients, voltage stability, frequency stability, other simulations in the transient domain.
• Create scripts to automate the above described simulations.
• Write reports where the input data, results and conclusions of the above simulations will be clearly described.
• Support SGRE Park Control Lead Engineers on Field Tests related activities.
• Support SGRE Grid Engineer Managers to communicate and defend the results and conclusions written in the studies reports.
• Support SGRE Grid Engineer Managers to prepare the studies scope of work, which will include the planning of Input data, timeline, description of studies execution and how the results will be presented.
