Our Energy Storage team within GE Vernova’s Power Conversion and Storage division deploys utility-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) that integrate seamlessly into the modern grid, driving the energy transition forward. We are looking for an experienced technical leader to own and scale our Energy Storage Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) and simulation capabilities. As the Senior Engineer - HIL & Simulation, you will be the technical anchor for validating our BESS controls, battery management systems (BMS), and power conversion systems (PCS). You will lead the development, commissioning, and continuous expansion of advanced HIL test benches and real-time simulation models. Your work will de-risk complex software releases, validate grid compliance, and ensure the highest standards of safety, reliability, and performance for our utility-scale energy storage solutions.\nEssential Responsibilities:\nTechnical Leadership & Strategy: Define and execute the roadmap for HIL testing, virtual commissioning, and simulation infrastructure across the BESS portfolio.\nHIL Architecture & Development: Design, build, and maintain real-time simulation test benches to test physical controllers and embedded software under realistic grid and battery operating conditions.\nPlant & Grid Modeling: Develop, validate, and maintain high-fidelity plant models-including battery cell/stack models, , inverters, and AC/DC power grid networks using tools like MATLAB/Simulink or RSCAD. .\nSIL Architecture & Development: Design, build, and maintain virtual simulation test benches to test project specific controls software for development and commissioning troubleshooting.\nAutomation & CI/CD Integration: Develop automated test scripts and frameworks to integrate HIL/SIL testing into our continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) software pipelines, accelerating release cycles while maintaining rigorous quality gates.\nData Analysis & Reporting: Analyze large volumes of simulation and test data to evaluate BESS performance, dynamic response, and compliance limits. Interpret complex test results, identify root causes for anomalies or edge-case failures, and translate findings into clear, actionable insights and technical reports for cross-functional engineering teams.\nFault & Edge Case Validation: Simulate extreme grid disturbance events (e.g., low/high voltage ride-through, frequency response, grid faults) and internal battery fault scenarios to verify system protection and control logic safely.\nCross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with firmware, controls, systems engineering, and product validation teams to reproduce field issues, verify bug fixes, and sign off on new software releases.\nMentorship: Provide technical guidance, mentorship, and best-practice training to junior and mid-level engineers on the simulation and testing team.\n• Process Innovation: Drive productivity initiatives and standardize modeling workflows to accelerate NPI (New Product Introduction) cycles.\nQualifications/Requirements:\nBachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Control Systems, or a related technical field.\n6+ years of engineering experience in power electronics, renewable energy, or grid-tied systems.\n3+ years specifically focused on HIL/SIL testing, real-time simulation, and control system validation.\nFamiliar with GE Mark VIe controllers\n\nDesired Characteristics:\nDemonstrated hands-on experience with real-time HIL hardware and software platforms (e.g., Typhoon HIL, Opal-RT, or National Instruments).\nStrong proficiency in MATLAB/Simulink/Stateflow, PLECS, or C/C++ for model development and auto-code generation.\nDeep understanding of BESS architecture, including Battery Management Systems (BMS), Power Conversion Systems (PCS), and Energy Management Systems (EMS).\nExcellent problem-solving abilities, strong technical communication skills, and a demonstrated ability to lead projects in a fast-paced environment.\nFamiliarity with grid codes, utility interconnection standards (e.g., IEEE 1547, UL 9540), and power system dynamics.\nWillingness to travel up to 20%\nComfortable working with global teams, including flexibility across time zones\nProactively identifies and removes organizational obstacles, enabling the team to execute with speed and clarity\nAdditional Information\nCompensation Grade\nSPB 3\n\"This role is open to remote candidates; location and flexibility will be determined based on candidate profile and business needs.\"\nRelocation Assistance Provided: No\nGE Vernova offers a great work environment, professional development, challenging careers, and competitive compensation.
