Lead Power Systems Engineer; EMEA

Position: Lead Power Systems Engineer (EMEA)
What To Expect  Join Tesla in building the power grid of the future with clean, sustainable energy. We're looking for a skilled Lead Power Systems Engineer to help design, model, and integrate our battery storage solutions, accelerating the green-energy transformation.
Tesla is looking for a Lead Power Systems Engineer to develop in-house models and support our energy storage, solar, and electric charging projects. You will interface with utilities, independent power providers, and system operators in technical power systems discussions, and influence our systems design to facilitate scaling on the grid. You will be responsible for supporting utility-scale projects in the EMEA region.

You will provide strategic inputs in AHJ engagements and represent Tesla as a thought leader in the EMEA region. The role is diverse, fast-paced, and spans multiple levels of electrical, controls, firmware design, and grid operations.
What You'll Do   Act as a technical leader for the EMEA power systems team
Influence and shape industry requirements for the benefit of the grid
Work with the product design team to feed power systems requirements into the product specification to influence system architecture
Act as the technical representative for power flow, short circuit, and dynamic modelling discussions with customers and AHJs, showcasing the ability to articulate power systems analyses/results and the interaction of Tesla's technology with the grid
Continue to increase our in-house capability to model Tesla’s product in commercial power systems simulation platforms
What You'll Bring   Experience providing technical leadership within a team on power systems projects
Previous experience with working groups and standards creation for power system technical requirements
Expert-level knowledge of at least three power system modelling tools: PSCAD, PSS/E, PSLF, DIgSILENT Power Factory, Power World, ETAP, SKM, CYMCAP, or CDEGS

Experience with modelling and simulations of inverter-based generation
Demonstrated experience with performance of interconnection and engineering studies, such as stability, protection coordination, harmonics, insulation coordination, arc flash, and ground grid analyses
Strong working knowledge of control theory and the ability to implement PID control
Degree in electrical engineering with a power systems focus
Ability to work cross-functionally with customers, engineering, business development, and deployment personnel
Direct experience with EMEA utilities and ISOs is a plus
Prior experience with HIL tools (RTDS, Typhoon, OPAL-RT) is preferred
Fluency in one or more official EU languages (apart from English) is a plus
