Job Description

We are seeking an experienced Electrical Power Quality Specialist to join our HVDC team at Hitachi Energy Canada Inc., Montreal.

You will be part of a team of talented engineers working for Harmonic Analysis group in Systems Design department, reporting to the HVDC Engineering Manager in Canada.

Your primary responsibility will be to interpret customer requirements and analyze their feasibility, performing harmonics studies supporting high voltage equipment definition – during tender and project phase, as well as onsite compliance measurements during project start-up and operation.

Responsibilities

  • Evaluate whether specified harmonic power quality requirements can be fulfilled; and analyze small-signal stability in the harmonic range (harmonic stability); when connecting HVDC station to the network or windfarm.
  • Calculate harmonic stresses in all HVDC station main circuit equipment and evaluate whether mitigation measures or re-designs are required due to excessive harmonic stresses.
  • Develop small tools in e.g., Excel, MATLAB or Python to effectively analyze and process large amounts of data for your study work.
  • Effectively participate in negotiations, internally and with customers or suppliers, presenting and discussing challenges on your own work and path forward on a higher level.

  • Participate in conferences and standardization work groups in your field within the international engineering communities.
  • Compliance measurements during commissioning is also among your responsibility.

Requirements

  • Professional Engineering with Bachelor's or MSc. degree in Electric Power Engineering or similar.
  • 2+ years of experience with harmonics analysis and studies on high voltage substations.
  • You should be able to model and analyze electrical circuits in frequency-domain – by hand and via computer – and understand how multi-phase systems can be analyzed using modes.
  • You face problems with a structured mindset, understanding that models and calculations are estimations, but also, that input data could be arbitrary and that some requirements must be challenged and discussed with customer to solve real problems.
  • You are a team player with excellent communication and report writing skills.
  • Experience of EMT tools like PSCAD is advantageous and programming experience in MATLAB is highly appreciated.
  • Fluency in English, both written and spoken is required to be able to interact with various stakeholders.
  • French speaking is an asset.

Salary Range
