Role Description This is a full-time, on-site role based in Toronto, ON for a Senior Real-Time Solver Development Expert – Power Systems & Power Electronics. The role focuses on designing and developing high-performance real-time solvers and simulation algorithms for complex power systems and power electronic converters. Day-to-day responsibilities include modeling and analyzing power networks, implementing numerical methods and real-time algorithms, optimizing solver performance on dedicated hardware platforms, and validating solutions through simulation and experimental testing. The expert collaborates closely with cross-functional R&D teams to integrate solvers into advanced control and protection platforms, contributes to system architecture decisions, and supports troubleshooting and refinement of existing solutions. The role also involves documenting technical designs, mentoring team members, and staying current with industry and academic advances in power systems, power electronics, and real-time simulation technologies.
Qualifications
- Strong expertise in power systems analysis, power electronics modeling, and real-time simulation of grids and converter-based systems.
- Advanced skills in numerical methods, differential equation solving, and algorithm development for real-time and embedded applications.
- Proficiency in programming languages and tools commonly used for scientific computing and real-time systems (e.g., C/C++, MATLAB/Simulink, Python, model-based design environments).
- Experience with real-time simulation platforms, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing, and optimization of solvers on specialized hardware.
- Solid understanding of control theory, digital signal processing, and protection schemes for power systems and power electronic converters.
- Demonstrated ability to work in collaborative R&D environments, communicate complex technical concepts clearly, and contribute to cross-disciplinary projects.
- Graduate degree (Master’s or PhD) in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, Power Electronics, or a closely related field; equivalent experience with strong publication or industry record is also valued.
- Experience in industrial or utility-scale applications, grid integration of renewable energy, or advanced converter technologies is an
