EMC engineer

The opportunity

Do you want to enable the green energy transition, and together with colleagues meet the world’s needs for sustainable, flexible and secure energy?

In your work you will be part of HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) business unit that is a part of Hitachi Energy’s division and is located in Ludvika. The unit develops, manufactures and sells DC transmission systems on a global market. Hitachi Energy’s developed HVDC technology is used to transmit electricity over long distances and for power transmission via submarine cables, thus enabling stability, cooperation between grids, sea-based wind power and more.

Are you interested in working in the EMC domain in a challenging electromagnetic environment, where signal cables, electronics and many other systems meet high voltages and currents? Do you want to help ensure that the system maintains full functionality during fast transients with very high voltages? Does a department working to bridge mechanical and electrical aspects of the design by performing electro-mechanical studies with an overall system perspective in large scale projects, all in a highly international environment sound interesting? Then maybe you should consider becoming part of our team at HVDC!

How you’ll make an impact

You use your practical EMC experience to ensure proper design and controlled performance during normal use, fast switching of a high voltage-high current system as well as during catastrophic events such as short circuits and the like.

The role includes:

Continuous improvement of guidelines and processes related to your area

Documenting strategies and overall requirements from an EMC perspective in tenders, projects and R&D projects.

Performing inspections to ensure proper installations at our sites internationally

Work together with experts in areas like RF emission simulations and studies, grounding of very high currents and electro-magnetic field simulations.

Being part of R&D activities to make sure we stay comp
