Lead Modeling & Simulation Engineer (m/f/d)

• →Lead the full model development lifecycle, from requirements clarification and functional specification through implementation, review, validation, documentation, and release.
• →Develop and maintain modular MATLAB and Simulink models for wind turbine sensors, actuators, and control logic, including pitch, yaw, braking, condition monitoring, and auxiliary systems.
• →Translate supplier datasheets, interface definitions, and test data into model equations, parameters, operating limits, and acceptance criteria, while documenting assumptions and gaps.
• →Build models that reflect real system behavior, including delays, saturation, noise, drift, filtering, rate limits, hysteresis, diagnostics, and fault responses.
• →Define and automate requirements-based verification and validation activities, including regression testing for normal operation, transients, limits, and fault conditions.
• →Support closed-loop simulation and model-in-the-loop (MIL), software-in-the-loop (SIL), and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) activities, and investigate differences between simulated and measured behavior.
• →Provide technical leadership by leading reviews, mentoring engineers, and improving modeling standards, reusable libraries, and release practices.

• Bachelor’s degree in Control Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
• Significant experience in modeling and simulation engineering, including ownership of technical deliverables and technical leadership responsibilities.
• Strong hands-on experience with MATLAB and Simulink for structured model development, scripting, debugging, automation, and reusable component design.
• Proven experience building dynamic models of sensors and actuators and implementing control logic from requirements, specifications, datasheets, or experimental data.
• Strong understanding of control theory, feedback systems, continuous-time and discrete-time dynamics, numerical simulation, and model verification and validation.

• Experience with wind turbine controls and operation, especially pitch, yaw, braking, drivetrain interfaces, operating states, and fault handling ,safety chain.
• Experience with tools such as Stateflow, Simulink Test, Simulink Coverage, Requirements Toolbox, System Identification Toolbox, or similar.
• Experience with Python or C/C++, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) platforms setup and maintenance, and requirements or lifecycle management tools such as IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management (ELM) or DOORS Next.
