The opportunity

Do you want to enable green energy transition, and together with colleagues build customized embedded control and protection systems consisting of both software and hardware to meet our customers' and the world's needs for a sustainable, flexible, and secure energy future?

For offshore wind power or long-distance underwater transmissions, direct current is the only realistic energy transmission alternative.
