Identify and pursue technology development opportunities and advance the state-of-the-art in the areas of advanced controls and operation to improve microgrid control product line. Assume technical engineering responsibility for the product line testing. Execute all design, development, and related technical testing required to develop and maintain the microgrid control product. Review test methods required by standards and develop procedures as needed to provide repeatable test practices. Incorporate changes to improve safety, quality, effectiveness, and efficiency. Serve as technical point of contact for customers and work with engineering and manufacturing team to troubleshoot customer problems and advance microgrid control product requirements and maintain quality and develop future features & functions. Create HIL and CHIL tests and models using RTDS and Single-board computers to test Microgrid control product. Write, and debug Codesys/Python/C/C++ with an emphasis on generating code that is organized, structured, documented, maintainable and reusable. Troubleshoot and debug issues with test equipment. Maintain updated knowledge of microgrid integration and control standards, UL, NEC, CSA, NEMA, CANENA, IEEE, IEC. Discover, evaluate and implement core technologies on new potential applications. Investigate, integrate and validate new product designs abiding by time based milestones. Implement state of the art concepts and solutions into quick prototypes, feasibility studies, specifications, and eventually into larger systems and product components. Develop and apply tools for advanced system modeling and simulation. Some examples of tools include computer simulations, databases, analysis algorithms computational methodologies. by performing system modeling, simulations and rapid prototyping utilizing multiple software and hardware tools (Matlab/Simulink, PSCAD, CYME, DSPACE, Python, C++, OPAL-RT and/or RTDS). Engage and provide mentorship to new talent (interns) and global teams. Travel 15% of the time both domestic and international travel to go to customers sites, visit the extended team in Montreal, Canada and Pune, India.
