Responsibilities 

• Design, develop, and implement advanced controls solutions for multiple domain controllers for grid-tied inverter. 

• Evaluate existing control strategies and propose and develop enhancements; this could be enhancing PID control-based strategies with cascade control, feedforward, gain-scheduling, etc. or applying a different, more suitable model-based control algorithm (i.e., model predictive control, internal model control, etc.). 

• Actively contribute to grid-tied inverter features such as grid following, grid forming & frequency response. 

• Validate features on cross-validation rigs such as HiL.

• Work closely with across departments to define appropriate hardware and software platforms for implementing control solutions. 

• Lead projects and work in a multi-disciplinary research, development, and engineering environment to identify opportunities for advanced controls. 

• Safety-related control system design, implementation, validation, and sustainment; along with all associated design and documentation deliverables.

• Assist and contribute to the generation of targets and verification methods that are driven by Customer, Function Requirements and Failure Modes and Effects Analysis. 

• Provide technical support and assistance across the operational team on topics relating to the integration and harmonization of multiple interconnected components including issue resolution and objective data analysis. 

• Engagement with key project stakeholders around the business to gather requirements, development, and integration. 

• Engagement with suppliers to explore and collaborate to deliver solution. 

Requirements 

• Masters or PhD in Electrical, Mechanical or Chemical Engineering, preferably with coursework focus on Advanced Controls, Data Analytics, or Optimization. 

• 5+ years of experience in industry for grid and/or motor application. 

• Familiarity with a diverse array of process control technologies from classical PID control to modern control techniques. 

• Grid-tied inverter and Motor control along with their related domain requirements.

• Programming experience in Matlab/Simulink. 

• Ability to translate advanced control process solutions into PLC code and/or real-time control applications written in C or C++. 

• Strong technical curiosity with a desire to take on challenging technical problems.

• Controls-oriented modelling.

• Ability to learn a process quickly, that includes notifying process variables, existing controls solution, process specifications and limitations.
