Senior Control Engineer: Emergency Power Systems (80-100%)

About the job

Senior Control Engineer: Emergency Power Systems (100% workload)

At AKSA Würenlos AG, we develop and implement highly available emergency power solutions – customised, technically sophisticated, and business-critical for our customers.

We are not looking for a conventional control technician. We seek a personality who understands complex emergency power systems as a whole, and who can get them running in a structured and stable manner.

If you don’t just want to programme, but want to recognise connections, understand causes, and take responsibility, you are right with us.

Your Tasks

Electrical Design

• Conceptualisation and creation of complex circuit diagrams (eXs-CAD)

Automation Planning

• Technical overall responsibility for control solutions in projects in the field of energy and emergency power systems
• Engineering and implementation of sophisticated control concepts as well as definition of technical standards
• Integration of emergency power systems into higher-level systems (PLC, control systems, building automation)

Control Systems

• Parameterisation and commissioning of generator controls (e.g. ComAp, Cummins PCC) as well as higher-level automation systems
• Implementation and optimisation of standby power, synchronisation, and load management functions

System Tests and Commissioning

• Execution and management of FAT, SAT and commissioning at the factory and on site with the customer
• Analysis of complex faults and derivation of sustainable solutions

Documentation and Standards

• Ensuring clean, structured, and comprehensible documentation
• Active development and standardisation of control concepts, engineering processes, and documentation

Team and Collaboration

• Professional support and coaching of junior control engineers in daily project work
• Support in quality assurance within the team
• Technical contact person for project managers, customers, and internal/external project participants

Your Profile

• Completed training in electrical engineering, automation, or comparable field
• Preferably further education at HF/FH level (e.g. electrical engineering, energy technology, systems engineering or similar)
• Several years of experience in control engineering in an industrial environment
• Solid experience in commissioning and handling complex systems
• Experience with PLC systems and automation solutions
• Advantageous: experience with generator controls such as ComAp, Cummins PCC or comparable systems
• Knowledge in the integration of systems and plants
• Experience in schematic engineering (preferably eXs)
• Good knowledge of power grids, network types and network behaviour as well as their influence on emergency power, synchronisation and island operation
• Solution-oriented and independent working style
• Assertiveness and quality awareness
• Very good German skills, solid English skills, French advantageous
• Driving licence category B
• Willingness to travel approx. 40% including on-call duty

What Distinguishes You

• Systemic Thinking – You recognise connections where others only see components
• Technical Responsibility – You ensure that the system works
• Analytical Strength – You find causes, not just symptoms
• Hands-on & Pragmatic – You tackle tasks, think along and find a solution that works
• Structure and Clarity – You keep an overview even with complex tasks
• Implementation Strength – You see things through to the end

Is That You?

You are not the type to simply programme what is on the plan. You understand why a system is built the way it is – and ensure it works reliably under real conditions. With us, you work on solutions where it really matters that they run.

What Awaits You With Us

Technology That Counts
You work on emergency power systems that must function in an emergency – not a playground, but real responsibility.

Stability Meets Growth
An established company with a clear direction – and at the same time enough dynamism to really push things forward.

Flexibility in Everyday Life
Flexible working hours, home office options, and a free parking space.

Substantial Development
We invest purposefully in your skills development – both professionally and personally.
Potentials are recognised and actively promoted.

Building the Future Together
We consciously develop further – with the ambition to be at the forefront in our fields.
