Software Architect, MATLAB

A Snapshot of Your Day

The Turbine Loads department situated in India, France, Spain and Denmark. We drive the latest developments of turbine load design and validations, aero-servo-elastic analysis and load mitigation strategies. We continuously push the borders to optimize the annual energy production of our wind turbines without compromising the structural integrity and operational constraints in the sub-systems. We work at the forefront of technology and product development. Our work is centered around an efficient engineering design process where our in-house design tool chain is the backbone. As a Software Architect, you will be setting the direction for the software tool chain and work closely together with the tool developers in the department but also with stakeholders across the company.
