vor 3 Wochen
Vattenfall is a European energy company with approximately 21 000 employees. For more than 100 years we have electrified industries, supplied energy to people’s homes and modernized our way of living through innovation and cooperation. We are looking for talented individuals who, in addition to their passion for their own role, also have strong team spirit and want to contribute to supporting a meaningful corporate mission.
Our Battery Engineering Circle focuses on developing, building, and operating Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). We are a self-organized, dynamic team dedicated to pushing the boundaries of technology and innovation in renewable energy storage
As the Lead Engineer – BESS, you will be the technical authority overseeing the design, integration, and safety standards for our battery energy storage solutions. You’ll provide technical leadership across the entire project portfolio, ensuring excellence in every stage of the engineering lifecycle.
This role is perfect for a seasoned expert with substantial experience in renewables engineering and energy storage systems, looking to guide and mentor a young, ambitious team of engineers while shaping long-term engineering processes and frameworks.
Key Responsibilities:
- Serve as the go-to technical leader for system design, BESS integration, and grid/hybrid power plant integration (e.g., combining BESS with photovoltaic or wind projects).
- Lead the development and implementation of an overarching engineering framework, gradually adopting the INCOSE Systems Engineering V-model to improve requirements engineering and lifecycle processes.
- Act as a mentor and technical advisor, providing guidance and support to less-experienced engineers, helping them grow and thrive in their roles.
- Collaborate closely with the procurement team on supplier selection, ensuring technical requirements are met and maintaining strong industry ties with current and potential suppliers.
- Stay connected with R&D teams and external research institutions to remain at the forefront of technological innovation in the battery industry.
- Promote a culture of continuous learning and innovation while respecting the autonomy of sub-circles within our self-organized team structure.
Qualifications:
- Academic Background: A Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Chemistry, or a related field is required, with a solid academic and scientific foundation.
- Expertise: Extensive experience in establishing engineering tools and processes required. Advanced knowledge in electrical and power grid engineering beneficial, ideally covering all life cycle phases of utility/asset focussed business. Background in stationary battery energy storage applications is preferred, but not mandatory.
- Leadership and Mentorship: A natural ability to lead through informal leadership and mentorship, with a focus on developing young talent. You must excel in communication, networking, and fostering collaborative, team-oriented environments.
- Innovation and Adaptability: Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to thrive in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) environment, with a mindset focused on continuous improvement and innovation.
Location:
- Hamburg or Berlin (GER)
- Moderate travel required.
What We Offer:
- A market-competitive salary and a wide range of company benefits to support your well-being and professional growth.
- An opportunity to play a key role in shaping the future of battery energy storage technology, working with cutting-edge innovations and contributing to the global energy transition.
- A collaborative, self-organized work environment, where autonomy and ownership are valued, and each team member has the freedom to lead their work.
