Role Summary

Join our Next Generation Grids Transformers team in Lodz and shape the future of energy. As an R&D Engineer - electrical transient simulations, you will work on cutting-edge medium voltage transformer and power converter technologies in a dynamic, international environment.

You'll be part of a collaborative global team, contributing to the full R&D lifecycle-from concept to testing and product launch, ensuring that our solutions meet technical specifications, market demands and quality needs. This role offers hands-on experience, technical growth, and the chance to make a real impact in the energy transition.

How you will make an impact

  • Develop and implement innovative design rules for transformer and converter applications to mitigate interaction failures.
  • Create and validate medium- and high-frequency models to predict and analyze system behaviour as well as ensure optimal performance
  • Collaborate with customers during the specification stage to ensure that designs meet the requirements and performance expectations.
  • Provide technical support to quality departments.
  • Study overvoltage phenomena as well as the effect of transient events on electrical systems.
  • Utilize advanced simulation tools, such as Finite Element Method (FEM) and Matlab, to analyze network resonance and reconfiguration.
  • Take ownership of work packages and deliver results using a structured approach
  • Contribute to intellectual property and risk management activities in R&D

Requirements

  • MSc or PhD in Electrical Engineering, ideally with experience in R&D within a business environment
  • Strong background in distribution system and transformer transient mathematical analysis, modelling, and simulation.
  • Good knowledge of grid-connected power converters and switching behaviour, ideally complemented with knowledge on average and small-signal modelling
  • Good knowledge of MATLAB and Python, complemented by experience using dedicated electric circuit simulation tools, such as Simulink, PLECS, LT Spice, EMTP
  • Experience using finite element simulation tools (Ansys Comsol) would be a plus
  • Strong communication skills in English
  • Analytical thinking and ability to work independently and collaboratively within interdisciplinary and international teams
