Product Line Architect (f/m/d) Grid Monitoring and Control (Network Control System of the Future)

We are 50Hertz – one of the four transmission system operators in Germany. Together with the Belgian electricity grid operator Elia (Brussels), we form the internationally active Elia Group. At 50Hertz, over 2,100 people work to ensure that current flows reliably, low-loss and optimally controlled at all times over long distances. As a TSO, we play a central role in the implementation of the energy transition in a social, technical and economic sense. Our goal: By 2032 we want to integrate 100 percent renewable energy safely and affordable into the grid and system. Innovative We are driving the energy transition with future technologies and creative solutions. We are already thinking about this day and are ready to go new ways. Divers We work with people from different cultures and with diverse talents to achieve great things together. We always see diversity in every dimension as a chance. Responsible We are responsible for a reliable power supply and the sustainable expansion of the power grid. In order to master this task, it is self-evident to assume responsibility for each other. Community Our strong community and valuable cooperation ensure the success of our mission. This is why we actively promote the individual strengths and interests of our employees and support personal development.

This makes this point interesting to me: 50Hertz develops the Next Generation Control Center Ecosystem MCCS (Modular Control Center System) to meet the requirements for digitalization in the energy transition. MCCS aims to replace classic, monolithic SCADA applications and other operational tools with modules running in Kubernetes clusters and exchanging data via streaming services. Product Line Grid Analysis develops innovative network analysis products. The tools help operators to fully evaluate the network status in both real-time and preview processes and to derive activities that enable secure and efficient network operation. In total, about 20 product teams in 6 product lines work on the various modules for the core processes of a network operator. In the role of Product Line Architect, I am responsible for the technical excellence of the product teams of a Product Line. I control and monitor the development of several product teams and also take part in this central role of responsibility for smooth operation. As Product Line Architect, I work closely with the responsible Product Line Lead and am the trusted advisor in the team. My tasks and my responsibility: Architecture and Design: Planning, design and implementation of architectures for the modules with the respective Product Line product teams as well as with other product lines in the Product Cluster. Take responsibility for key decisions of architecture within the framework of the MCCS Architecture Decision Body. This includes defining and establishing technical standards for the Product Cluster. Technical leadership: management of development projects, cooperation with interdisciplinary teams and management of technical discussions on solution invention. This includes regular reviews of the product teams' solutions to ensure efficient, performant, resilient and safe solutions, as well as the professional management of the product team's solution architects. Safety standards: Implete and monitor high safety standards within the product line modules to ensure network stability and compliance with various audits (e.g. ISMS, KRITIS). Innovation and optimization: Continuous improvement of the new modules taking into account new technical trends and developments in the energy sector and IT.

Complete studies in computer science, electrical engineering or a related field. Found experience (at least 5 years) with Cloud Native environment (microservices, container orchestrators) and common technologies (K8s, HELM etc.), Finded experience (at least 2 years) with messaging and event streaming (Kafka etc.), experience in product development with focus on cutting and organization of services, Experience (at least 2 years) with common Architecture Frameworks & Tools (C4, Archimate, Enterprise Architect etc.), Willingness to participate in a willingness to call within the scope of the MCCS Operations Service Languages: German (C1), English (C1). This makes my profile particularly interesting: Ideally multiannual experience in the field of classic network calculation algorithms (Loadflow, State Estimation, Dynamic Calculations, Optimum Power Flow), competences for the development of concepts and architectures for the integration of individual algorithms in order to map appropriate business processes, Ability to define rules / guidelines for data editing / data models in close cooperation with the Product Line “Data”, knowledge of highly scalable solutions to optimize / ensure computing times, Knowledge of the integration of different algorithms: Classical Solver/ Algorithms, AI/ML Algorithms.
