Do you want to enable the green energy transition and, together with colleagues, build customized embedded control systems consisting of both software and hardware to meet our customers' and the world's needs for sustainable, flexible, and secure energy?
We are convinced that HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) technology, enabling efficient transmission of electricity at high voltages, is a long-term sustainable solution. The technology is used to transmit energy over long distances and connect electricity networks with minimal losses. In addition to efficient power transmission, HVDC technology helps improve power quality and contributes to the stability of connected power grids. For offshore wind power and long-distance underwater transmission, HVDC is the only realistic alternative.
In this role as a Software Engineer at Hitachi Energy, you will be part of a global HVDC Control & Protection Software team. Our team is responsible for Converter Control and works closely with other domains within Control & Protection, IT/OT, Hardware, and Operations.
As the demand for our technology continues to grow, we are looking for both newly graduated engineers and experienced professionals who are eager to develop their skills and contribute to the future of sustainable energy solutions.
