C++ Simulation Engineer – Power Systems

vor 11 Stunden


Aachen, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Deutschland Optimus Search Vollzeit 60.000 € - 120.000 € pro Jahr

We're looking for an engineer who understands the power grid — not just from a code perspective, but from a
physics and systems point of view
. You'll help us simulate real-world electrical infrastructure, from transformers and overhead lines to fault conditions and power flow behaviours.

This is not a typical software developer role. You should be someone who enjoys working with
simulation models
, has a solid background in
electrical engineering
, and is confident turning physical behaviours into clean, maintainable
C++ code
.

Your Responsibilities:

  • Develop and maintain C++-based simulation models for electrical grid behaviour
  • Focus on
    short-circuit modelling
    , power flow, and grid stability
  • Collaborate with domain experts to translate physical systems into simulation logic
  • Work across
    Windows and Linux environments
    , depending on team/project
  • Optionally contribute to tooling in
    Python
    and
    Qt framework
  • Participate in technical discussions and knowledge sharing across a 60-person software team

What You Bring:

  • 4+ years of experience in C++ programming (ideally simulation-oriented)
  • Background in
    electrical power systems
    or
    energy grid modelling
  • Knowledge of
    short-circuit behaviour
    , transformer modelling, and system faults
  • Strong mathematical thinking; ability to turn formulas and grid logic into software
  • Comfortable working with both Windows and Linux environments
  • Bonus: Experience with Python or GUI development using Qt
  • German language is required (C1-C2)
