**Job Family:** Grid Software

**Req ID:** 480239

Here at Siemens Grid Software, our mission is to accelerate and secure the energy transition in a sustainable and profitable way. And for that we need you! We are paving the way for autonomous grid management empowering grid operators to accelerate their digital transformation easier, faster, and at scale.

By leaving behind traditional ways of tackling the net zero challenge and embracing the powerful capabilities of software and digital technology, we turn the complexity of grids into competitive advantage. No matter where power comes from or where it goes, we make sure it makes its way at every step.

**We are searching for a Power Systems Software Engineer** to join our team! You will be responsible for developing and improving new analysis and modeling components of the PSS® software platform along with other projects. This position requires detailed knowledge of power systems algorithms, and broad experience with mathematical programming, software engineering, test plans, test implementation, and software delivery.

Join our team, get inspired, and help us re-imagine the world! **Transform the everyday with us!**

Based in the New York Capital Region, this position reports into our Schenectady NY office for in-person collaboration.

You’ll make an impact as you:

+ Create mathematical algorithms for power systems simulation. This includes engineering design of power systems models, as well as implementation and testing. Implementation will be done in mostly in Fortran, but the candidate is expected to have the ability to adapt if another programming language is chosen. C, C++, and Python are commonly used in our portfolio. Design tasks range from theory (symbolic algebra) to the software algorithm that delivers it, and to clearly document the model (how to use it and how to maintain it).

+ Exhibit proficiency in object-oriented programming, functional programming, and other techniques to accelerate the process of modeling power systems simulations.

+ Work with the Grid Simulation software development team (also known in the industry as the Power Technologies International—or PTI—software team) on designing, developing, and testing and documenting the software.

+ Maintain and develop components of the Grid Simulation PSS® software platform under the direction of the product manager and product owner.

+ Create robust tests to assess performance, correctness, and usability of the software.

+ Provide estimates and analysis of tasks required for development and actively participate in development status reviews.

+ Develop software according to modern methodologies such as the Scaled Agile Framework, including the use of tools such as Jira, Confluence, and Git.

+ Stay abreast of new developments in power system analysis, modeling, and optimization.

You’ll win us over by having the following qualifications:

+ Master’s degree in power systems engineering, or electrical engineering with an emphasis in power systems engineering, with strong abilities in software development.

+ Work experience with power system analysis methodologies and the ability to research, investigate, and apply new and complex modeling and analysis techniques.

+ Experience developing in Python, C/C++, or Fortran, particularly in the Microsoft Visual Studio environment.

+ Familiarity with power systems simulation techniques and how to model equipment.

+ Knowledge of power system modeling, power flow solutions, and contingency analysis.

+ Knowledge of control engineering.

+ Ability to travel up to 10%.

Preferred qualifications:

+ Ph.D. in power systems engineering, or electrical engineering with an emphasis in power systems engineering, with strong abilities in power systems software development.

+ Prior experience with creating simulation models for power system components is a plus.

+ Experience using PSS®E in a Utility or National Laboratory is a plus: this is your opportunity to change from being a user of the software to guiding the development of the software.
