Hitachi Energy strive to help and solve the World’s energy crisis by providing solutions for the efficient transportation of “green” electricity from its place of generation (eg. off-shore wind farms, hydroelectric power stations, solar-cell farms, etc.) to our factories and cities. By bringing sustainable energy to more people, we can help reduce our impact on the planet.

The HVDC technology has been on the market for over 60 years and is used to transmit power over long distances and integrate renewables into the grid with minimal losses, using overhead lines, underground and submarine cable systems.

We are seeking several new R&D Engineers in Digital Electronics hardware design. In this role you will help develop our electronics’ systems that Control & Protect our High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) power stations. The position is based in Ludvika or Västerås, Sweden. Up to 49% remote working, depending on task.

You will be joining a fast-growing team of hardware design engineers that really strive to cooperate and focus on their tasks; developing the best possible technical solution for our MACH™ platform. Our work environment is open and you will be encouraged to do what you are best at – every day.

 

Your responsibilities

You will be responsible for the development and maintenance of electrical products & components comprising the brain of the HVDC system.

The work requires a deep understanding of digital electronics and embedded systems both theoretical as well as practical tasks. Requirement management, development of design specifications and documentation are also part of the work tasks.

You will have the responsibility to create robust designs within the cost and time limits and with a product lifecycle management perspective.

We work in a modern environment where both rapid prototyping and productification takes place. We have tools and labs for the complete electronic hardware development cycle, from early prototype testing to final system verification.
