Siemens Energy

A Snapshot of Your Day

As part of our HVDC Commissioning Team, you will implement, test, and verify hardware and software for innovative HVDC applications using lean and agile methods. You will work in diverse, multinational teams in close collaboration with project management, system and equipment engineering, as well as end customers to deliver customized solutions based on the latest advancements in HVDC technology.

In our testing facilities, you will act as the responsible quality gate for hardware and software during Factory Acceptance Tests. On construction sites, you will commission high-voltage equipment and control and protection systems and verify their functionality under real operational conditions.

How You’ll Make an Impact

• Plan and execute tests and commissioning of high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission systems in an on-time, cost-effective, and quality-oriented manner.
• Lead and manage international teams of commissioning engineers and contribute to internal improvement programs (e.g., Lean, Reviews, Lessons Learned).
• Ensure compliance with contractual requirements, applicable laws and regulations, and occupational health and safety standards, including organization and execution of Functional System Testing / Factory Acceptance Tests (FST/FAT).
• Ensure a smooth construction site process and oversee progress monitoring, documentation, and communication with suppliers and internal and external partners.
• Coordinate technical clarifications with customers related to testing and commissioning in close alignment with the project management team.
• Support the project management team in risk and claim management and ensure quality and occupational safety on site, including non-conformance reporting (NCR).

What You Bring 

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, or an equivalent combination of technical education, training, and relevant professional experience.
• 10 or more years of professional experience in commissioning or commissioning management of large-scale plants (e.g., HVDC plants, power plants, switchgear, power distribution systems), with solid project management knowledge. Candidates with more experience can be considered for a higher level or vice-versa.
• High availability to travel, including worldwide business trips and long-term assignments on construction sites in the U.S. and abroad, as well as optional offshore assignments.
• Strong decision-making, conflict management, result orientation, motivation, and communication skills in international and intercultural environments.
