Permanent - Research engineer “MTDC grid protection” W/M

Established in 2014, SuperGrid Institute is an independent private company with over 150 employees of 21 different nationalities. The institute is a key player for energy transition in France and throughout Europe, specialising in innovative high and medium voltage direct current (HVDC and MVDC) power systems. SuperGrid Institute also develops new technologies for the integration of renewable energies into the electricity networks of the future.SuperGrid Institute has been ranked every year since 2018, reaching the podium 3 times in the INPI prize list.SuperGrid Institute is working on the development of protection strategies for Multi Terminal DC (MTDC) networks as well as protection algorithms for fault line discrimination in order to develop a more efficient and reliable protection system.In this context, several tools for analysing the performance of protection strategies have been proposed within the SuperGrid Institute. Through EMT simulations, techno-economic analysis and key performance indicators, it is possible to evaluate and propose optimised solutions to transmission network operators and HVDC equipment manufacturers.Objectives / MissionsIn collaboration with industrial and academic partners (Europe), you will carry out research activities, participate in working group meetings and be responsible for the deliverables.You will participate in SuperGrid Institute's consultancy activities: analysing customer specifications, carrying out system studies, participating in customer technical meetings, monitoring the progress of projects, guaranteeing deadlines and quality of deliverables.You will contribute to research activities related to the development of DC network control and protection systems:Analyse and develop solutions for protectionCarry out simulations to validate the proposed solutionsConsolidate the studies and resultsWrite study reportsYou will contribute to the valorisation/IP of the results and write scientific articles.ProfilCandidate ProfileWith an engineering or Masters degree in electrical engineering/power systems, you will have at least 2 years' experience in electrical transmission systems/protection algorithm development, preferably in the field of HVDC networks.Skills in EMT softwareKnowledge of signal processing appreciatedDefinition of technical specifications for electrical components (high voltage)Fluency in English and preferably French.High level of autonomy.Creativity and flexibility to proactively accept challenges and provide the best solution within the deadlines.Ability to summarise results and draw conclusions.What we can offer you :You will join an institute for energy transition, a promising and stimulating field of activity,A young and dynamic working environment,Mixed and international teams (+20 nationalities),Participation in meal expenses (company restaurant),Possibility of teleworking 1d/W,Sports activities within the company (yoga on site, football, running...),Remuneration: depending on your experience. #J-18808-Ljbffr
