- BayWa r.e. is the home for change makers. We r.e.think energy - how it is produced, stored and can be best used to enable the global renewable energy transition that is essential to the future of our planet. At BayWa r.e. we effect change globally. With locations in 30 countries, we have over 4,500 people already working across the world, collaborating with local businesses to proactively shape the future of the energy sector.
BayWa r.e. Solar Projects GmbH provides an extensive range of services, from greenfield development and turnkey construction to financing options and the operation of ground-mounted or floating solar parks and hybrid plants. Thanks to our global expertise, our local teams can cater to our customers’ needs and requirements.
Due to our dynamic growth we're looking for you as a

**What You Will Do**:
Key tasks:

- Establish an in depth understanding of the dynamic thermal response of transformers, based on real-life dynamic production curves, storage profiles and thermal operating conditions
- Explore design parameters like active cooling, thermally upgraded insulation, mineral oil alternatives, fibre optics temperature measurement,
- Perform transformer lifetime calculations according to IEC 60076 and IEEE C57.96 and latest CIGRE research papers
- Define a robust, theoretical basis and model for determining the optimised rating (MVA capacity) for a defined life service assuming dynamic loading
- Perform an economic and risk analysis of optimisation concepts (CAPEX, OPEX) under consideration of impact on plant design (e.g. reactive power)
- Assess any restrictions on site flexibility (i.e. being able to move transformer across projects or countries), e.g. grid code requirements, grid parameters, local standards, civil design, etc.
- Derive engineering guidelines for BayWa r.e. projects

**What You Bring**:

- You are seeking for an industry cooperation to write your Master's Thesis
- You have ideally come in contact with transformers in the course of your studies
- You are confident in using a common programming language (Python or similar)
- You are highly motivated to make an impact in the way power transformers are design for renewable energy projects

**What We Are Ready To Offer You**:

- Mobile working
- Flexible working hours
- International team (86 different nationalities working for BayWa r.e. across the globe)
- Flat hierarchies, an open culture and plenty of leeway for your ideas
- Modern office ambience (height-adjustable desks, additional monitors, ergonomic chairs, etc.)
- Company restaurant (only in the Munich office)
- Discounted shareholder program
