Development Engineer, Internals
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Nov 10, 2026. First seen by Alion on Oct 26, 2026.
Wind power is growing, in every sense of the word. Modvion designs and develops a patented modular wind turbine tower made of laminated wood, engineered to reach higher altitudes and unlock wind resources previously out of reach. Laminated wood, nature's carbon fibre, enables efficient logistics for tall towers while substantially cutting the carbon footprint of wind power.
We are moving from proven, single-tower projects into a phase of scaling delivery, and every project we take on right now is a critical step in proving that model to the market.
The role
A wind turbine tower is more than its structure. Inside it, cables, ladders, platforms, lifts, ventilation, lightning protection and aviation lights all have to fit together, work and be certified. Most internals are developed by the turbine manufacturer, while Modvion develops the parts that are specific to a wooden tower, such as lightning protection, and dehumidification. We are now developing our next tower generation, and the internals need to be right from the start.
As Development Engineer you will own the internals system technically through all project phases, from requirements to verified solution in production and in the field. You will:
Understand the system, its functions and its many interfaces with the tower and the turbine, and represent it in e.g. design reviews
Break down and set the requirement specification for the system, including the requirements we put on the turbine manufacturer
Manage the technical relationship with the turbine manufacturer and other suppliers: requirements, design input, reviews and follow up of deliveries
Develop Modvion-specific internals, such as lightning protection, dehumidification and ventilation, in line with requirements and together with suppliers
Manage the interfaces with other tower systems, manufacturing and installation
Secure the technical documentation: specifications, interface descriptions, quality assurance and test reports
You will work closely with colleagues in Product Development, Manufacturing, Installation, Quality and Certification, and with our turbine partners.
Who you are
You have a degree in mechanical engineering or similar and at least 5 years of experience in product development. You know the mechanical design process from concept to released drawings and have basic CAD skills, preferably in Inventor. You are used to working with large suppliers and partners, setting clear requirements and following them up.
You are structured and plan and document your work as a matter of course. You deliver to plan but adapt quickly when plans change, and you enjoy working with skilled colleagues and suppliers.
You are fluent in English, written and spoken.
It is a merit if you have experience of:
Wind turbine internals or interfaces to turbine manufacturers
Mechanical packaging and CAD assembly management, e.g. space claims, interfaces and coordination
Lightning protection, ventilation or climate control
Requirements management
Wind power or another regulated industry
