How You’ll Make An Impact

• Contribute to R&D projects from the initial concept stage to final product rollout.
• You will be responsible for the overall electrical system including selection of appropriate ratings (power, voltage, current) of the equipment, selection of on-board battery energy and voltage levels or agreeing these with other partners, e.g., bus OEMs.
• Designing the overall charging system based on an understanding of the dependence on the above.
• Develop and assess protection concepts for low voltage - low power charger (100kW 600V DC).
• Develop and assess protection concepts for high power chargers (1500kW 1500V DC).
• Develop system simulations for grid code compliance (THDi, THDu, power factor, DC ripple etc.).
• System design, SLD & MLD (single- and multi-lines diagrams), BOM (bill of materials).
• Write tutorial, guidelines, test procedures, report templates for engineering and commissioning engineers.
• Write technical specifications for internal and external suppliers.
• Benchmark and cost evaluation.
• Audit, assessment of external partners, including power electronic converter part.
• Lab testing (heat-run, EMC, noise, electrical endurance), official type tests certification, factory acceptance tests, site acceptance tests, commissioning, end-user training at a domestic and international level.
• Support customer project tendering and execution activities.
• You will be responsible to ensure compliance with applicable external and internal regulations, procedures, and guidelines.
