Senior Systems Engineer

Advanced Grid Sensing | Sensor Device Development Think system-wide. Solve hard technical problems. Help turn advanced sensing concepts into reliable products. Safegrid's Intelligent Grid System consists of two main components: field-deployed IoT sensor devices and a cloud platform. This role focuses on the development and system architecture of the sensor devices. We are looking for an experienced systems engineer to strengthen our technical capability across sensing, electronics, embedded systems and signal processing. This is a senior technical individual-contributor role with substantial technical ownership. Working with the Principal Engineer, Sensor R&D teams, Product Management and other G&W Electric functions, you will develop and challenge system architectures and progressively take ownership of complete sensor-device systems and their technical performance. What you will do Develop and review system architectures for Safegrid sensor devices. Own and resolve challenging multidisciplinary technical topics across sensing, electronics, embedded systems and signal processing. Make system-level trade-offs across performance, power, reliability, cost, manufacturability and technical risk. Lead technical investigations, root-cause analysis, design reviews and validation. Strengthen Safegrid's system-engineering practices, technical knowledge and product architectures. What we are looking for Strong engineering fundamentals. Substantial hands-on experience in electronics, embedded systems, measurement and signal processing. Ability to understand complex systems across disciplinary boundaries and make sound system-level decisions. Strong analytical, experimental and root-cause problem-solving capability. Experience taking technical ownership of complex products or systems. Clear technical communication and the ability to challenge assumptions constructively. A bachelor's or master's degree in a relevant engineering or applied-science field, with senior-level engineering experience. Useful experience Advanced sensing and measurement, analog electronics, antenna, RF, or EMC design, FPGA, DSP, industrial or scientific instrumentation, design-for-test, connected embedded products, electrical power systems, high-voltage technology or condition monitoring. We do not expect candidates to already know all of these areas. Strong engineering fundamentals, technical curiosity and the enthusiasm to learn unfamiliar domains are more important than experience with particular tools, programming languages or technologies. Location and working model The role is based in Turku, Finland and combines office-based engineering with regular hands-on laboratory work. Some travel to G&W Electric locations, suppliers, laboratories, test facilities and customer sites may be required.
