• Analyze technical specifications and requirements for power electronic equipment and systems.
• Perform commissioning activities for power conversion and control systems interfacing with energy storage solutions in laboratory environments.
• Analyze logs, signals, errors, and performance metrics, generating clear and reusable reports to support engineering, quality, and certification activities.
• Participate in the definition of validation strategies, test plans, test procedures, and acceptance criteria for prototypes, products under development, and certification programs.
• Execute validation and verification tests in laboratory, factory, and field environments for power conversion and control systems.
• Manage end-to-end test traceability, from requirement definition through execution and final reporting.
• Perform proof-of-concept activities and validate hardware and software components and functionalities.
• Support component qualification, product approvals, and certification processes.
• Collect, process, and analyze test data using laboratory instrumentation and measurement equipment.
• Prepare validation reports, certification documentation, and technical test records.
• Develop and maintain automated testing solutions and laboratory test benches.
• Plan, coordinate, and execute certification testing in accordance with applicable international standards and customer requirements.

Your Background

• Bachelor or Master Degree in Engineering or an equivalent technical field (minimum requirement).
• Experience in the validation and certification of electronic products and/or embedded software systems.
• Experience working with laboratory test benches, HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) systems, and test automation environments.
• Advanced knowledge of electrical systems, power electronic converters, and control systems.
• Proficiency in the use of laboratory instrumentation, including oscilloscopes, network analyzers, multimeters, temperature recorders, and similar equipment.
• Experience preparing, managing, and executing prototype tests, customer tests, or product certification activities, including the preparation of test reports, is highly valued.
• Experience in commissioning power converters and operating laboratory measurement equipment is considered an advantage.
• Knowledge of photovoltaic systems and energy storage solutions, particularly battery systems and hybrid PV-battery applications, is positively valued.
• Familiarity with international standards such as UL1741, IEC62477, IEC62109, IEC60076, as well as grid code compliance requirements, is valued.
• Strong commitment to safe working practices and compliance with workplace health and safety standards.
• High level of self-motivation, curiosity, and enthusiasm for learning and applying new technologies.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and troubleshooting skills.
• Collaborative mindset and effective communication skills, with the ability to work in multidisciplinary and international teams.
