Control Specialist Climate System

We are looking for an engaged and experienced control engineer to support our expanding team of engineers working with the climate system design of HVDC stations. The climate system is essential to facilitate safe and reliable operation of the HVDC station. The increased installed base of projects as well as the large number of parallel ongoing projects means an increased need for control competence within the climate system design department. You will work closely with the climate system designers ensuring alignment between intended functionality and actual implementation. In this role, you will work with the development, configuration, and verification of control and protection functions for HVDC installations. Programming is performed in graphical function block environments for real-time systems, where you build logic for regulation, monitoring, and protection.  

“At Hitachi Energy, the Climate System team plays a key role in ensuring the reliability and performance of HVDC stations across the globe. We are building a strong, multidisciplinary organization that combines deep technical competence with collaboration and innovation. As a Control Specialist in climate system department, you’ll be part of this journey. If you are motivated by engineering excellence and global impact, we would be happy to welcome you to our team” - Farshad Abbasi, Manager Climate System
