• Utilize Python and Bash for scripting to automate system tasks, perform data analysis, and create efficient tools for system monitoring and diagnostics.
• Develop software components that respond to power system events and implement control algorithms for voltage regulation, load shedding, fault detection, and protection.
• Ensure the stability and safety of power systems through rigorous software design and testing.
• Create comprehensive unit tests, integration tests, and system-level tests, validating software against power system simulations and real-world scenarios.
• Maintain clear and concise documentation for software design, APIs, and system configurations.

Qualifications:

• 1 - 2+ years of experience in C++ development, with demonstrated experience building applications within a Linux environment.
• Familiarity or direct experience with the Qt framework for GUI development and application logic.
• Strong problem-solving skills and exceptional attention to detail.
• Excellent communication and teamwork abilities.
• Passion for writing clean, efficient, and maintainable code.

Bonus Skills:

• Bachelor s or Master s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• Familiarity with power system concepts (voltage, current, frequency, etc.) is highly desirable.
• Experience with communication protocols (Modbus, DNP3, IEC 61850, etc.).
• Exposure to industrial control systems (e.g., PLC programming or SCADA systems).
