The Opportunity We are seeking a Power Electronics Modelling & Simulation Expert to join our Product Innovation & Development team , working on next-generation power-conversion solutions for renewable energy and energy-storage applications. In this role, you will be directly involved in shaping products from early concept and modelling through laboratory validation, commissioning, and certification , collaborating with multidisciplinary teams in a truly international environment. This position offers high technical exposure, hands-on laboratory work, and the opportunity to influence real products deployed worldwide. How You’ll Make an Impact Design, model, and simulate power electronics converters and control systems (AC/DC, DC/DC) using tools such as PLECS, Simulink, PSCAD, or SPICE . Support the selection, qualification, and verification of semiconductors, passive components, and protection devices. Contribute to fast, iterative development cycles , combining simulation, prototyping, laboratory testing, and commissioning activities. Build, maintain, and operate laboratory test setups to verify the performance, efficiency, and robustness of power conversion systems. Analyse logs, signals, and test results, producing clear and reusable technical reports to support engineering, quality, and certification teams. Support validation, qualification, and certification activities in laboratory, factory, and selected field environments. Your Background BSc or MSc in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or a related field (minimum requirement). Solid experience in power electronics design , including converters, control strategies, and system-level integration. Strong hands-on experience with modelling and simulation tools (PLECS, Simulink, PSCAD, SPICE or similar). Practical experience with laboratory instrumentation, prototype testing, and commissioning is highly valued. Fluency in written and spoken English is required; experience with PV and energy storage systems is a strong plus.
