Description

Over 60 years ago, Hitachi Energy introduced a new way of transmitting electricity across long distances with minimum losses – High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC). We can now deliver up to 12 gigawatts of power at voltage levels of up to 1100 kV, covering distances of more than 3,000 kilometers. Also, HVDC is a key enabler for integrating renewable sources like offshore wind farms in the continental power grid. Our R&D engineers and scientists develop breakthrough technologies that change the way the world works, and industries do business. Now we are looking for enthusiasts who would like to strengthen our growing team in Hitachi Energy Technology Center in Krakow, contributing to the heart of HVDC station: Modular Advanced Control for HVDC (MACH).

That control system is designed to run 24/7 for thirty years or more, handling all control and protection functions. Development in Krakow covers High-Speed digital control boards, I/O Measurements systems and Power Electronics control & protection circuits. As a part of a global R&D organization, you will cooperate on a daily basis with colleagues from MACH teams in Sweden and India, all working under the same Agile framework (SAFe), developing End-to-End solutions integrating electronic hardware, FPGA, and embedded software.

You will join the Analog HW Electronics team led by Yuriy Puchkov, applying your knowledge and skills in technology and product development.

• You will see how your personal efforts convert to real products, impacting the evolution of electrical grids, making them more green, reliable, and resilient.
• You will work in a comfortable office with great transport communication (near central station), with modern equipment in our brand-new on-site laboratory area.
• Our organization will support your competence development, knowledge sharing, work-life balance, and harmony of diversity.
• Our teammates are open-minded, friendly, and work in good spirit.

Your responsibilities:

• Participate in the full lifecycle of hardware platform for HVDC Control & Protection system, from idea, requirements, simulations, prototyping, testing up to release & sustaining production.
• Take care of robust design, including analogue electronics, high speed, optoelectronics, gate drivers, power electronics, etc.
• Work with circuit board schematics and layout, simulations, parts selection.
• Do prototyping, verification of design, implementing manufacturing test procedures. Care for testing infrastructure and environment.
• Prepare and manage technical documentation.
• Participate in technical reviews and project planning.
• Live Hitachi Energy’s core values of safety and integrity, which means taking responsibility for your own actions while caring for your colleagues and the business.

Your background:

• At least Master/Bachelor’s degree in Electronics/Electrical Engineering or related field.
• Experience or participation in end-to-end study projects with designing and simulating circuit boards, building, and testing prototypes.
• Strong commitment to safe work practices and dedication to following all relevant workplace safety guidelines.
• Practical knowledge of hardware design process and tools (Schematics and layout tools like Altium, KiCad, Eagle, circuit simulations like SPICE, LTspice).
• Knowledge of the main properties of electronics components used in electronics design.
• Practical knowledge of test and measurement equipment (power supply, signal generator, oscilloscope) and circuit boards testing.
• A high level of self-motivation, curiosity, and desire to learn about new technologies.
• A collaborative, solutions-oriented approach, and good communication skills.
• English language – Intermediate / B1 / Technical communication.
• It would be an advantage: Experience with digital circuits and interfaces (FPGA, CPUs, Memories, Backplanes…), PCB layout design and PCBA manufacturing, Power Electronics (gate drivers, power supplies), fiber optics communication, understanding scope of EMC, Signal Integrity, Power Integrity.

You will learn more:

• How to develop robust equipment for industrial applications.
• How to use Altium as a design tool.
• About simulations of design’s blocks to evaluate behavior in different scenarios.
• How to use DFMEA or calculate MTBF to ensure quality and reliability of equipment.
• About technical properties of all components used in projects.
• About new prototypes and existing boards used in real applications.
• How devices are manufactured in mass production.
• How to ensure quality of delivered products to customers.
• How huge projects break down into single tasks, allowing to deliver on time.
