About Doosan
Doosan GridTech™ delivers control system software and power system engineering services to help distribution utilities integrate distributed energy resources, such as solar and wind power, into the grid. Our control software for energy storage systems (ESSs) runs patent-pending algorithms that help utilities maintain power quality on circuits impacted by solar and other renewables, while taking full advantage of energy storage and other distributed energy resources.
Summary
Doosan GridTech currently has an outstanding career opportunity for a Power Systems Engineer. Use your engineering and leadership skills to design and develop next-generation distributed energy resource solutions, including energy storage and solar, for the electric power system, and see your solutions deployed with real-world customers who are incorporating distributed energy resources into the grid. We require strong power system engineering skills and experience with projects that solve real-world electric utility problems. Desired capabilities are a strong plus.
Responsibilities
* Lead the engineering design of megawatt-scale energy storage systems, including electrical system design, utility interconnection design, installation and testing plan design, and control system integration. * Manage engineering service sub-contractors and component vendors to contribute to the overall design of energy storage systems. * Create and coordinate the delivery and quality assurance of key engineering drawings and reports. Manage the PE certification process for electrical design drawings. * Provide engineering support for component solicitations including the evaluation of power conversion systems and battery systems from multiple vendors. * Author customer-facing documents to help them implement energy storage designs (e.g. installation plans). * Work with others in Doosan GridTech to identify design and performance improvements in Doosan GridTech’s delivered systems.
