Key responsibilities

The work model for the role is: #LI-Hybrid

You will be mainly accountable for:

• Understanding fundamental working principle of different low and medium voltage protection devices and function of electromagnetic actuator in each product.
• Developing system-level simulation models that couple finite element analysis (FEA), control and power electronics as well as mechanical loads.
• Conducting magnetostatic, transient and sensitivity analysis of the selected actuator(s) and summarizing key findings.
• Collaborating closely with experienced engineers and researchers to evaluate findings and derive recommendations.
• Documentation of the work and presentation to different ABB stakeholders.

Qualifications for the role

• You are currently enrolled in a Master's program in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics or a related technical field.
• You have solid theoretical background in electromagnetics and electrical machines. Familiarity with limited-stroke actuators or magnetic materials is desirable.
• You have experience with electromagnetic simulation tools such as ANSYS Maxwell, COMSOL Multiphysics or FEMM.
• You have strong analytical skills and ability to conduct systematic literature and patent research.
• You are interested in sustainable technologies and alternative design approaches for electromagnetic devices.
• You bring hands-on experience with test setups involving electrical machines or actuators.
• Proficiency in English with the ability to convey technical findings effectively in reports and presentations.
