This entails optimizing the value of post-COD aspects such as warranties, long-term service agreements (LTSA), and Change-Modification-Upgrades (CMUs) to uphold customer satisfaction.Job Description\nAbout the Position\nThe Controls Engineer sits within the Reliability and Root Cause Analysis (RCA) team, with a primary focus on inverter controls troubleshooting and a growing emphasis on BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) unit and plant control support as new BESS sites come online. This role drives excellence in the functionality, reliability, and efficiency of inverters and BESS systems, integrating them effectively with other systems and aligning with both industry standards and GE's operational objectives. In addition to troubleshooting inverter and BESS-related issues, the engineer actively participates in Root Cause Analyses (RCAs) - often working through issue tickets and bug fixes as first-line troubleshooting - and contributes to Change-Modification-Upgrades (CMUs) aimed at enhancing system performance and functionality.\nRoles and Responsibilities\nEnsure optimal performance and reliability of inverters and BESS units in the field.\nTroubleshoot and resolve escalated inverter and BESS controls-related issues, including tickets and bug fixes.\nParticipate in Root Cause Analysis (RCA) investigations related to inverter and BESS controls issues.\nSupport triage and resolution of control system issues as first-line troubleshooting, distinct from formal RCA processes.\nProvide input and development support for custom control behavior requests driven by customer-specific requirements.\nSupport BESS/unit control troubleshooting in addition to core inverter controls responsibilities.\nCollaborate with the Center of Excellence (COE) and NPI (New Product Introduction) teams on legacy system programming changes as needed.\nCollaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate inverters and BESS systems effectively with other plant systems.\nLead or support projects focused on inverter/BESS system upgrades and enhancements.\nProvide expert guidance on inverter and BESS technology selection and implementation.\nStay updated with the latest inverter and BESS technologies and industry trends.\nDevelop and maintain detailed technical documentation and guides for inverter/BESS operations.\nSupport on-site start-up and integration of inverter and BESS systems.\nMinimum Qualifications\nBachelor's in Electrical Engineering or a related field.\nMinimum of 2 years of relevant experience with inverter controls systems.\nExperience with developing or maintaining inverter control systems and associated software.\nWorking knowledge of BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) controls.\nAbility to communicate fluently in English (written and spoken).\nPreferred Qualifications\nMaster's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.\nBasic networking knowledge relevant to control system troubleshooting (e.g., BESS communication networks).\nExperience distinguishing hardware vs. software root causes in inverter systems (e.g., power supplies, phase modules).\nExposure to custom/non-standard control software development.\nFamiliarity with legacy inverter/BESS control systems and upgrade processes.\nStrong knowledge of modern inverter and BESS technologies and associated systems.\nDesign and development knowledge in renewables applications.\nDemonstrated experience in inverter/BESS system integration and optimization.\nStrong interpersonal skills for effective stakeholder communication.\nPrevious experience with GE P80i and PERTU systems.\nAbility to collaborate with cross-functional teams.\nFamiliarity with renewable energy regulations and standards.\nRequired Characteristics\nSelf-motivated.\nPerformance-driven.\nExcellent interpersonal and communication skills.\nProactive and dynamic approach.\nSolution and customer-oriented mindset.\nExecution-driven with a focus on achieving results.\nComfortable operating at the intersection of hardware and software troubleshooting.\nAdditional Information\nRelocation Assistance Provided:
