Greencells Gmbh Careers Opportunities

Full Job Description

As SCADA Engineering Manager, you take technical ownership of SCADA, monitoring, plant control and communication systems for our utility-scale PV and BESS projects. You act as the central technical interface between engineering, project teams, customers, grid operators and external suppliers such as Gantner or meteocontrol — ensuring these systems are correctly specified, integrated, tested and commissioned.

This role combines strong technical understanding with coordination and stakeholder management: you translate between grid operator requirements, customer expectations, supplier solutions and EPC project realities. Most importantly, when a plant reaches commissioning, you ensure SCADA, PPC and communication systems work reliably — rather than becoming the project's last unresolved interface.

Your Mission

• Technical ownership of SCADA, monitoring, plant control and communication systems
• Supplier management — coordinating SCADA/PPC providers (e.g. Gantner, meteocontrol) and holding them accountable for correct specification, integration and delivery
• Acting as the central technical interface between engineering, project teams, customers, grid operators and suppliers
• Testing & commissioning oversight for SCADA, PPC and communication systems
• Engineering & project coordination across the full plant lifecycle

Qualifications And Requirements

• Degree in electrical engineering, automation engineering, control engineering, mechatronics, computer engineering, or a comparable technical discipline
• Several years of professional experience in SCADA, industrial automation, power plant control, renewable energy, or grid integration
• Experience with utility-scale PV, BESS, substations, or other power generation assets highly desirable
• Good understanding of SCADA architectures, industrial communication networks, and plant control systems
• Familiarity with communication protocols such as Modbus TCP/RTU, IEC 60870-5-104, IEC 61850, OPC UA or comparable
• Understanding of active power, reactive power, voltage and grid control concepts is an advantage
• Experience working with grid operators, utilities, or grid compliance requirements highly desirable
• Proven track record coordinating external technical suppliers and managing complex system interfaces
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills across hardware, software and communication systems
• Confident communicator with engineers, customers, suppliers and grid operators
• Structured working style and a strong ownership mentality — you drive technical topics until resolved
• Willingness to travel occasionally to project sites, suppliers or customers
• Driving licence category B
• Fluent English; German language skills strongly preferred
• A responsible, proactive and solution-oriented approach to work, with the ability to apply professional expertise effectively in day-to-day activities
• A commitment to respectful, trusting collaboration and mutual support within the team
