Equipment Lifecycle Management Manage the lifecycle of high economic value High Voltage equipment such as power transformers, instrument transformers, reactors, capacitors, and surge arresters, covering the development of its requirements, specification, supplier management and the validation and verification (testing) of design, manufacturing and commissioning.
Reliability, Availability and Maintainability Studies and Management Create, verify, and validate the reliability, availability and maintainability models for HVDC systems and subsystems, providing insight to customers and leaders and managing the risks, issues and opportunities that affect the systems throughout their lifecycle.
Losses Management Create, verify, and validate the electrical power losses models for HVDC systems and subsystems, providing insight to customers and leaders and managing the risks, issues and opportunities that affect the systems throughout their lifecycle.
Quality Report or resolve any non-conformances in a timely manner.
Health and Safety Identify and evaluate EHS risks in own area and implement practical measures.
Set the example by demonstrating the proper acts and actively observe work conditions and behaviours, giving constructive feedback and celebrating EHS effective prevention.
Actively participate in defining corrective actions when work is unsafe or when an uncontrolled risk is observed.
Routinely observe routines and behaviours of others and provide immediate feedback regarding unsafe behaviour and celebrates achievements or safe behaviours.
Actively and routinely promote the identification of hazards and near misses to their team/s.
Desired Additional Skills Transient Studies Determination (by simulation) of temporary and transient overvoltage stresses on equipment and surge arrester energy ratings.
Harmonic Analysis and Power Quality Conducting AC and DC harmonic performance and harmonic stability studies for HVDC converter stations for VSC and LCC HVDC schemes. Radio Frequency Interference studies and Electromagnetic Compatibility studies. Power Line Carrier Interference studies and filters. Design of AC, DC, and High Frequency harmonic filters and screening. Calculations of filter performance and rating. Creation of project-specific equipment specifications for filter reactors/capacitors/resistors.
Tools PSCAD, PSS/E, DigSilent, Python and MATLAB.
Desired Candidate Profile Qualifications And Experience Preferably educated with a Master in Power Systems Engineering from an accredited institution (or equivalent knowledge) and first professional experience and technical expertise in the field of Power Systems Engineering and preferably in HVDC System Design.
