You will investigate converter trips, derates, and firmware regressions, then incorporate fixes into the standard design.
Requirements
- Experience taking power conversion from specification through energized grid-scale storage or solar deployment
- Experience writing PCS or inverter specifications and holding vendors to them
- Experience debugging converter behavior using scope traces, power-quality captures, and event records
- Experience with grid-forming operation on islanded plants
- Experience translating field failures into standard-design changes
- Clear written communication
- Grid-forming control
- EMT validation
- PSCAD
- EMTP
- PLECS
