A Snapshot of Your Day The role focuses on developing and qualifying innovative, reusable secondary technology solutions for high-voltage switchgear. This ensures reliable control, actuation, sensing, monitoring, diagnostics, and digital integration while maintaining seamless alignment and harmonization across diverse global markets, including Europe, the USA, and Latin America. To address these global development aims, the R&D; Secondary Technology Engineer focuses on electrical secondary systems design, standardized LCC/control-cabinet platforms, and international standard harmonization. The engineer defines technical requirements, design rules, and interface specifications for operating mechanisms, auxiliary switches, and interlocking systems. This key distinction of the role lies in developing and qualifying reusable technology platforms that project engineers later configure and apply to customer-specific switchgear solutions. Given the focus on integral secondary technology development, the ideal candidate must possess a strong background in electrical, automation, or mechatronics engineering, with proven experience in electrical/control system development within the high-voltage switchgear or power transmission industry. Familiarity with international standards (particularly the IEC 62271 family, IEEE, ANSI), experience with electrical CAD/CAE tools, and strong systems‑thinking are essential. Excellent communication skills in English and Spanish are required to coordinate effectively across multinational R&D;, testing, and product management teams. How You’ll Make an Impact 50% Electrical Design & Secondary Technology Development
Leverage 3 D modelling techniques to develop reusable secondary electrical systems, architectures, and standardized LCC/control‑cabinet platforms for high‑voltage switchgear. Create master circuits, schematic diagrams, wiring plans, and interface specifications for operating mechanisms, coils, motors, and interlocking systems. Integrate innovative control, auxiliary, sensing, monitoring, and digital equipment interfaces (such as LPITs and IEC 61850) into switchgear products.



30% Global Harmonization & Standards Compliance
Harmonize product designs to comply with diverse international standards (IEC, IEEE, ANSI) and regional market requirements across Europe, USA, and Latin America. Support product testing, prototype verification, and qualification activities in accordance with global utility and industrial standards, particularly the IEC 62271 family. Evaluate technical requirements and design rules to drive modularization, standardization, and technology reuse across the global portfolio. 20% Technical Governance & Cross‑Functional Collaboration
Collaborate with Primary Technology, Product Engineering, Testing, and global manufacturing plants to ensure design consistency and governance. Support component and supplier qualification, lifecycle management, and root‑cause analysis during product launch and execution phases. What You Bring Education Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Automation, Control Engineering, Mechatronics, or a comparable discipline. Typically 3-5 years of experience in electrical/control system development, preferably within high-voltage switchgear or power transmission equipment.
