Offer Description

As a University of Applied Learning, SIT works closely with industry in our research pursuits. Our research staff will have the opportunity to be equipped with applied research skill sets that are relevant to industry demands while working on research projects in SIT.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Participate in and manage the research project with Principal Investigator (PI), Co-PI and the research team members to develop an onboard microgrid simulation model with energy management.
  • Work with research team to deliver the work scope and undertake these responsibilities in the project.
  • Work Responsibilities:
  • Develop a detailed electrical model of the e-vessel microgrid (power system) based on the concept design in a simulation environment such as Matlab/Simulink.
  • Design and develop an intelligent energy management system for the e-vessel microgrid for coordinated control of multiple energy sources considering cost, carbon, and operation constraints.
  • Operate the simulated electrical model on a real-time system such as Typhoon power-in-loop and Opal-RT systems with physical real connections to the EMS controller to perform deterministic simulations for unit, sub-system and whole system verification and validation.
  • Implement and carry out simulation studies for onboard microgrid and connection to shore charging infrastructure
    • Carry out Risk Assessment, and ensure compliance with Work, Safety and Health Regulations.
    • Coordinate procurement and liaison with vendors/suppliers.
    • Work independently, as well as within a team, to ensure proper operation and maintenance of equipment and assist in laboratory management.
    • Mentor students involved in the research project.
    • Any other ad-hoc duties assigned.

    Job Requirements:

    • Have a PhD’s degree or above in Electrical Engineering or equivalent from a recognized University. Major in Power Engineering will be advantageous.
    • Minimum 3 year of relevant experience in high fidelity modelling, HIL (OpelRT or Typhoon), electrical system design for better efficiency and system resiliency, and energy management algorithm development using MATLAB/Simulink for marine microgrid applications.
    • Knowledge on control is highly preferred.
    • Have experience and commitment to supervising student projects and providing training.
    • Self-motivated team player and good project management skills.
    • Excellent writing, communication, and interpersonal skills.

    Key Competencies:
