Tasks & Responsibilities

• Develop and improve (embedded) software for our virtualized substation server;
• Translate the different needs from our customers into development solutions;
• Development of the software architecture, together with the team;

Nowadays, increasingly higher demands are being placed on our energy grid. We believe there is a need for a different approach to substation automation. One that uses less equipment and less manhours to implement and maintain. One that generates data on which operators can balance and protect their highly dynamic grids. 

Our current first generation centralized solutions are running at Ellevio, National Grid, Liander and many more companies. We are now in the process of creating a whole new product line with new sensors and new software. While working in an agile development team, you are not afraid to propose new technology or software architectures to your fellow team members to accelerate and to improve the quality of our applications and products.
