C++ Simulation Engineer – Power Systems

We're looking for an engineer who understands the power grid — not just from a code perspective, but from a
physics and systems point of view
. You'll help us simulate real-world electrical infrastructure, from transformers and overhead lines to fault conditions and power flow behaviours.

This is not a typical software developer role. You should be someone who enjoys working with
simulation models
, has a solid background in
electrical engineering
, and is confident turning physical behaviours into clean, maintainable
C++ code
.

Your Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain C++-based simulation models for electrical grid behaviour
• Focus on
  short-circuit modelling
  , power flow, and grid stability
• Collaborate with domain experts to translate physical systems into simulation logic
• Work across
  Windows and Linux environments
  , depending on team/project
• Optionally contribute to tooling in
  Python
  and
  Qt framework
• Participate in technical discussions and knowledge sharing across a 60-person software team

What You Bring:

• 4+ years of experience in C++ programming (ideally simulation-oriented)
• Background in
  electrical power systems
  or
  energy grid modelling
• Knowledge of
  short-circuit behaviour
  , transformer modelling, and system faults
• Strong mathematical thinking; ability to turn formulas and grid logic into software
• Comfortable working with both Windows and Linux environments
• Bonus: Experience with Python or GUI development using Qt
• German language is required (C1-C2)
