About this role
Energy Vault is a global energy storage and power infrastructure company focused on delivering reliable, flexible power. The Intern in Power Electronics Engineering will gain practical experience in cutting-edge energy storage and data center technologies while collaborating with industry experts on system simulations and troubleshooting.
Responsibilities:
- Help design and perform verification tests in the EMT simulation and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) platforms
- Collaborate with internal and external teams to determine system requirements and verify our solution will meet and exceed project requirements
Requirements:
- Pursuing a Current Masters or Ph.D. degree with relevant research focus with solid power systems/power electronics background
- Strong interest in renewable energy, energy storage and data center industry
- Technical knowledge of grid-forming, grid-following inverters, power plant controller, DC/DC converters and solid-state transformers
- Experience with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing, preferably OPAL-RT or other platforms such as Typhoon and RTDS
- Experience working on PSCAD, PSS/E and other power system modeling software
- Experience with designing, testing, analyzing, evaluating power electronics systems (AC/DC and DC/DC converters)
- Experience in testing inverter control board gate drivers and protection circuits
- Familiarity with power semiconductor devices SiC and IGBT
- Familiarity with relevant industry standards such as UL 1741, IEEE 1547, IEEE 2800
- Experience with Matlab/Simulink, embedded control design experience in C/C++ preferably with TI C2000 DSP
- Experience in voltage source inverter control interfaces such as PWM, ADC; communication interfaces IPC, CAN, ETH
- No travel is required
- Comfortable thriving in fast-paced, rapid growth environments
- Must successfully pass a pre-employment background check
- Energy Vault participates in E-Verify
- A passion for sustainability, our mission, and our vision is a bonus!
