WTC-3 Control Engineer – Offshore Wind

A Snapshot of Your Day

Join the Offshore G4 Platform Team as a WTC-3 Control Engineer and step into a role where your expertise directly shapes the performance of a global offshore wind fleet. You work within the G4 Loads, Controls & Performance (LCP) team, leading control assessments triggered by fleet support needs, customer orders, PLM developments, and aftersales requests. You ensure wind turbines operate as intended by detecting deviations in control, supervision systems, and control software, and you drive solutions that correct and improve real field behavior. You balance long-term control system development with hands-on operational and pre-sales support, making your impact visible both today and across the platform lifecycle.

How You’ll Make an Impact

• Define, model, and specify wind turbine control, operation, and supervision strategies.
• Develop test requirements and validate control and supervision algorithms using aeroelastic simulations and hardware-in-the-loop testing.
• Analyze field behavior, perform root cause analyses when deviations occur, and propose improvements to control algorithms.
• Integrate the wind turbine supervisory system into the overall control architecture to ensure stable operation.
• Collaborate with the team leader and peers to optimize energy production, reduce loads, improve availability, and develop new technical procedures, methods, and tools.

What You Bring

• 4–5 years of experience in a similar controls engineering role.
• Strong skills in MATLAB/Simulink modelling, frequency analysis of time series, and performance data analysis.
• Hands-on programming experience in C/C++ using Visual Studio, along with solid MS Office skills.
• A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in electrical engineering, control engineering, or a closely related field.
• Fluent English communication and experience defining tests for control validation purposes.
• A team-oriented mindset motivated by improving the performance of our fleet.

About the Team

You are part of the Offshore G4 Platform Team, working within the G4 Loads, Controls & Performance organization. The team supports the global G4 fleet by handling controls-related requests from fleet support, customers, PLM developments, and after-sales activities. Together, the team evaluates, defines, validates, and implements solutions that correct and improve wind turbine field behavior. The mission is clear: ensure proper wind turbine operation and supervision performance across the fleet. Collaboration, shared problem-solving, and technical depth define how the team works every day.
