The opportunity: As an Engineering authority specializing in design studies and performance evaluation studies for projects and tenders related to Flexible A.C. Transmission Systems (FACTS) technology within the Power Quality Solutions (PQS) Business, you will play a crucial role in shaping the future of power systems. How you'll make an impact: You will be responsible for defining topology and single line diagrams for FACTS solutions based on customer requirements. Additionally, you will specify main circuit components such as Power Transformers, Power Electronics Valves, Reactors, Capacitors, CT, VT, Breakers, etc., according to customer specifications and international standards. Coordinating with suppliers to optimize the design of these components and evaluating their design and test record documents will be a key aspect of your role. Your responsibilities will also include performing design studies such as harmonic performance assessments, protection design, insulation coordination (including TOV/TRV/lighting studies), loss evaluation, and reliability studies. You will create and validate power system equivalents in RMS using software packages such as PSSE, DIgSILENT, PSCAD, and EMTP. Staying updated with new control methodologies for FACTS application and developing a deep understanding of control algorithms will be essential. You will conduct dynamic performance studies using FACTS devices integrated into power system networks, developing FACTS solution models in multiple software packages, and coordinating with other disciplines involved in project and tender deliveries. Your role will also involve close coordination and participation in research and development activities as per business requirements, as well as engaging in customer discussions to support Project Management, Product Management, and Application Engineering teams in customer acquisition and consultation. Your background: To excel in this role, you should hold a Ph.D. in Power Systems with 1-3 years of relevant work experience, an M. Tech in Power Systems with 2-5 years of relevant work experience, or a B.E/B. Tech in Electrical Engineering with 5-10 years of relevant work experience. It is essential to have experience in specifying power system components, evaluating vendor documents, and/or conducting grid integration studies for power electronics converter-based applications like FACTS, HVDC, wind, solar, and battery energy storage plants. Having knowledge of simulation tools such as PSCAD, PSSE, DIgSILENT, EMTP, RTDS, MATLAB, and an in-depth understanding of international standards (IEEE/IEC/GIGRE) for specifying power system components and solutions will be beneficial. Your ability to work effectively in multi-disciplinary and multi-cultural teams, excellent communication skills, attention to detail, and commitment to delivering high-quality digital solutions are crucial for success in this role. In conclusion, this position offers a unique opportunity to contribute significantly to the advancement of power systems technology while upholding Hitachi Energy's core values of safety and integrity. If you are a motivated, creative thinker with a passion for problem-solving and a desire to work in a dynamic environment, we encourage you to apply and be part of our innovative team.,
