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 general 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 global 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.
