Description

Our R&D engineers and scientists develop breakthrough technologies that change the way the world works, and industries do business. We constantly push the limits of convention, while retaining our focus on delivering quality products and solutions to our customers.

Power Electronics in Hitachi Energy has over 100 years of history, starting from development and manufacturing of Mercury-Arc Valves; introduction of breakthrough technologies like HVDC; pioneering power semiconductor manufacturing; bringing electricity to transportation; and enabling Smarter, Stronger and Greener Power Grids.

Hitachi Energy has committed to Net-Zero in the 2050 strategy, focusing R&D development to deliver technologies which support achieving The Carbon-Neutral Future. The backbone for the grid transformation is Power Electronics, where we are developing new efficient solutions for: integrating renewables, providing energy storage, improving power quality, and enabling green transportation & eMobility solutions.

The Power Electronics team based in Turgi, Switzerland, is a highly skilled, cross-functional team of engineers in the domains of Power Electronics, HW Electronics, and Mechanical Engineering. As a part of the team expansion, you will join the team remotely, with other colleagues from Krakow. You will develop a new breakthrough medium voltage modular converter platform for a range of grid and DC applications. You are expected to push the technology boundaries in terms of efficiency, size, and operational performance. If you are ready for the challenge, then join us.

Reporting to the R&D Team Manager in Switzerland, supported by the local hosting Technology Manager GI T&SD Krakow, you will cooperate with global R&D teams. A creative environment allows you to utilize your knowledge and skills in technology and product development to identify and implement innovative solutions for a new Product Platform.

Your responsibilities:

  • Be part of the design process for our future MV converter cells and other power electronic sub-systems of our converter stations and take a leading role to take new ideas from idea generation through concept design, prototyping, and verification all the way to production.
  • Work in new product development projects focusing on valve mechanical design tasks involving multi-disciplinary areas – for example, heat transfer, electrical insulation, strength of materials, and manufacturing technologies.
  • Perform mechanical design for converter valve components including design calculations, preparation of design specifications, and technical documents.
  • Preparation of 3D CAD Models, drawings, BOM, and Material Master Data handling in the ERP System.
  • Participate in various product verification tests from early prototype testing to final verification of converter valve design.
  • As the main part of the team is in Switzerland, a willingness to travel and sometimes work from abroad, e.g., building up prototypes in the R&D Laboratory in Switzerland, is required.
  • Maintenance activities on our existing products, e.g., implementing product improvements and supporting resolving field failures.
  • Contribute to solving technical challenges related to EMC/EMI, thermal management & safety. This role requires a product lifecycle perspective in the design work by considering various aspects like reliability, safety, maintainability, tooling, and manufacturing requirements.

Your background:

  • You are curious and interested in sustainability and the ongoing energy transition and want to work on key technologies to solve one of the biggest challenges for humanity today.
  • You are a natural team player and enjoy collaborating with others, have a solutions-oriented approach and strong communication skills.
  • You hold yourself and others in the team to a high standard.
  • Master's or PhD degree in mechanical engineering or similar/equivalent education.
  • 5+ years of experience within Mechanical Design and new Product development.
  • Deep understanding of mechanical core competences, material selection, manufacturing methods, GD&T, and understanding of electrical technology.
  • Knowledge of heat transfer, electrical insulation, strength of materials, fatigue of components, and manufacturing technologies.
  • Electromechanical design experience from the electric power industry or design of high voltage products is a benefit.
  • Strong proficiency in 3D-CAD modeling is a must, ideally in Solid-Edge environment.
  • Basic understanding of FEM and Ansys. Working knowledge of Team Center PLM system and SAP. You bring a high level of self-motivation, curiosity, and desire to learn about new technologies.
  • As you will be part of a global business, fluency in written and spoken English is required.
  • No restriction for travelling to Switzerland and other countries within Europe.

We offer an exciting job in an international environment where you will get great possibilities to develop further within Hitachi Energy. Living Hitachi Energy's core values of safety and integrity means taking responsibility for your own actions while caring for your colleagues and the business.
