Grid Systems Engineer

ppHyperscale Power is building the power backbone for the AI data center era: a complete power conversion chain from 13.8kV–35kV medium-voltage AC down to 800V DC, combining ultra-compact SiC-based AC/DC and DC/DC power blocks. The grid interconnection is where our system meets the utility – getting it right is fundamental to a safe, compliant and reliable product across every market we serve. /ppAs Grid Systems Engineer, you will design and develop the medium-voltage grid interconnection aspects of our power conversion system – from prototype construction and checkout through certification and volume production. You will work closely with the Power Electronics, Firmware and Test Field teams, and with our external test certification partners, to ensure our systems meet grid codes and interconnection requirements across our target markets. /ppIt is a unique opportunity to shape the grid interface of a breakthrough power electronics platform from an early stage – with direct visibility to the CTO and engineering leadership. /ph3Key Responsibilities /h3ulliDesign and develop the medium-voltage (13.8kV–35kV) grid interconnection system and related electromechanical/electronic equipment; prepare related installation, operation and maintenance specifications and instructions. /liliAnalyze equipment to establish operating data and conduct experimental tests on grid-interface hardware (transformers, protection, switchgear interfaces) under realistic grid conditions. /liliAnalyze engineering proposals and technical data to determine the feasibility of new equipment or modifications to existing designs for different grid voltage levels and markets. /liliResponsible for prototype construction and checkout of grid-interconnection subsystems, supporting our Prototype and Alpha Customer milestones. /liliCompile operational data and prepare customer application information and documentation for grid-tied deployments. /liliEnsure compliance with grid codes, interconnection standards and utility requirements (e.g., IEEE 519, IEEE 1547, IEC 61850, UL 1741) and support certification processes together with our test certification partners (UL, TÜV, IEC 62477). /liliCollaborate with the Power Electronics and Firmware teams on protection coordination, fault ride-through, and control strategies for grid-tied operation. /liliRespond to customer and partner technical requests regarding grid interconnection requirements as they occur. /liliSupport scaling of the grid-interface design across different grid codes and markets as we move from Alpha Customer readiness to Production and Volume Readiness. /li /ulh3Qualifications /h3ulliBSc / MSc in electrical engineering, power systems engineering or comparable education. /liliExperience in medium-voltage grid interconnection, power systems, or utility-scale grid-tied power electronics (e.g. solar/wind/BESS inverters, solid-state transformers) preferred. /liliFamiliarity with grid codes and interconnection standards (e.g. IEEE 519, IEEE 1547, IEC 61850, IEC 61400, IEC 62933, VDE-AR-N, UL 1741). /liliHands-on experience with prototype build, checkout and test of electromechanical/electronic equipment. /liliStrong analytical skills; comfortable designing and running experimental tests, analyzing the resulting data, and documenting the results. /liliTeam player, comfortable engaging directly with customers and partners on technical requirements. /liliLanguage skills: fluent in English, spoken and written; German language skills helpful, but not mandatory. /liliThe job will be located at our HQ in Egg b. Zürich in Switzerland. National and international willingness to travel is assumed. /li /ulh3Benefits /h3ulliEquity + competitive salary. /liliUnique technology and market opportunity – validated prototype and first paying customers on the path to volume shipments. /liliHybrid work with flexible working times. /li /ul /p #J-18808-Ljbffr
