DC Power Systems and Protection Engineer

Required

• The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
• You've designed protection for a medium- or high-voltage DC system (MVDC, HVDC, shipboard, rail, or DC microgrid) and seen it through commissioning.
• You've built and run electromagnetic transient models of converter-dominated systems, and used them to set breaker, fuse, or relay requirements.
• You've made a grounding call (solid, resistance, or floating) and defended its trade-off between fault current and insulation stress.
• You've specified, designed, or qualified DC breakers, fuses, or switchgear for medium-voltage or high-current DC, and tested them through interruption.
• You've written protection requirements a converter or breaker vendor had to redesign to meet.
• You find the failure case others missed and can show it in a single simulation plot.
• Bonus: DC interruption technology (solid-state and hybrid breakers, high-speed DC fuses). EMT simulation (PSCAD/EMTDC, EMTP, PLECS, MATLAB/Simulink). Protection coordination and relay settings (ANSI device functions, IEC 61850). MVDC standards (IEEE 1709). Professional Engineer license (PE).
• We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
