Operability And Modelling Process Engineer

We are looking for an Operability and Modelling Process Engineer to develop the transient model and define the operability strategies of our state-of-the-art electro-thermal grid-scale energy storage system. As a member of the Operability and Modelling team, in the Control Systems Engineering organization, you will utilize your process design skills to help deliver a highly automated power plant that will enable increased levels of renewables presence and utilization in electricity grids globally. Specifically, your responsibilities will include:

• Performing simulations of a state-of-the-art electrothermal grid scale energy storage system
• Preparing process design deliverables: processes/cycles scheme with simplified description, process narratives, operability requirements for the development of the controls algorithms
• Developing of the transient model and optimization of thermodynamic systems
• Coordinate with multi-disciplinary team across the Engineering organization for the development of our plant design, from conceptual to detailed.
• Participating and contributing to design reviews and safety reviews (Hazid, Hazop, FMEA, etc.)
