Project Engineer - Alternator Simulation

Job Overview

The Project Engineer - Alternator Simulation will focus on synchronous alternator simulation and validation. The synchronous alternators are used in generator set assemblies for standby power generation. The Project Engineer will become a technical power systems expert for engineering and other functional areas of the Rehlko Power organization. Technical emphases for the position include islanded and paralleled power system analysis, alternator performance, and communication on power engineering practices.

• Perform transient analysis of simulations of generator applications to optimize sizing.
• Develop and implement Alternator diagnostics algorithms.
• Provide model development and guidance for power system simulation in Simulink, SKM, and other power system toolsets.
• Work in conjunction with internal and external stakeholders to validate first article production machines.
• Provide expertise and support to the applications engineering group for customer and application-specific issues.
• Perform root cause failure analysis of alternator test failures.
• Develop, maintain and teach best practices within the department.
• Support education of internal and external stakeholders on power systems fundamentals.
• Assist in optimization of new and existing power systems for performance and cost.
• Limited domestic and international travel (
