What makes this role stand out: Unlike many positions in automation or control
engineering, this one comes with minimal travel requirements. While similar
roles often require frequent on-site deployments, you’ll focus almost entirely
on developing and programming wind farm control software – working from our
office in Hamburg with a highly skilled and collaborative team. Occasional
travel (1–2 times a year) may be required for testing or alignment, but your
core responsibility lies in the technical implementation, architecture, and
optimization of control systems – not in field service. If you’re looking for a
role where you can deepen your programming expertise (C#, C++, IEC 61131-3) and
work on impactful renewable energy projects without being constantly on the
road, this is it.

YOUR TASKS:
* Design and implement software solutions for the Nordex Acciona wind farm
controller.
* Translate functional control requirements into robust code (primarily
PLC-based and/or C#/C++)
* Develop and optimize communication interfaces (e.g. Profinet, Modbus TCP/RTU,
IEC60870-5-101/104)




* Validate control software through lab tests and remote field tests
* Contribute to performance optimization of wind farm control systems
* Collaborate closely with Control and Grid Code teams as well as testing and
validation teams
* Take ownership of complex control development projects and lead their
implementation
* Provide 3rd-level support for the Nordex Acciona wind farm fleet

YOUR PROFILE:
* University degree in Control Engineering, Electrical Engineering,
Telecommunications or related fields*
* Solid programming experience in C#, C++ and/or IEC 61131-3 based PLC
programming
* Experience in embedded systems and real-time applications is a plus
* Strong understanding of PLC architectures and control algorithms
* Familiarity with industrial communication protocols (e.g. OPC UA, DNP3,
Bluecom)
* Experience with grid codes and renewable energy systems (wind, BESS, PV,
hybrid plants)
* Ideally
