Capgemini Engineering

Join Capgemini Engineering in Utrecht or Eindhoven as a Senior Scada Engineer. Help build Europe’s smart energy grid with real-time systems, digital twins, and secure grid architecture!

At Capgemini Engineering, the world leader in engineering services, we bring together a global team of engineers, scientists, and architects to help the world’s most innovative companies unleash their potential. From autonomous cars to life-saving robots, our digital and software technology experts think outside the box as they provide unique R&D and engineering services across all industries. Join us for a career full of opportunities. Where you can make a difference. Where no two days are the same.

YOUR ROLE

As a SCADA Technical Specialist at Capgemini Engineering, your work will directly contribute to building a more sustainable and resilient energy infrastructure for Europe: the digital transformation of the energy grid. Think of the recent massive blackout across Spain, Portugal, and parts of southern France, paralyzing households, transportation, emergency services, and communications. Or the ongoing grid congestion in the Netherlands where new housing and business developments have been halted due to lack of grid capacity. This underscores the critical need for smarter, more resilient grid systems.

In this role, you’ll contribute directly to building those systems, working on high-impact projects across the energy value chain—from supporting offshore wind integration to enabling real-time control for TSO's & DSO's.

In this role, you will:

  • Configure and maintain on-premise and cloud-based SCADA systems to meet specific requirements, including change management systems such as AspenTech/OSI Monarch.
  • Lead integration efforts between SCADA, EMS, DCS, and DERMS platforms, enabling seamless IT/OT convergence and enhanced situational awareness
  • Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to SCADA systems, ensuring continuous operation and performance.
  • Design and implement system enhancements and upgrades for SCADA and other systems to improve functionality.
  • Provide technical mentorship and training to end-users and junior engineers.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams, fostering an environment of mutual respect and shared learning: Real-time curtailment and forecasting for offshore wind farms. ADMS deployment for autonomous fault detection and restoration in urban distribution networks. Grid modernization programs involving legacy system integration, cybersecurity hardening, and DERMS rollout.

    • YOUR PROFILE

    We are looking for individuals who excel at systems thinking, with a drive for digital innovation in the energy sector. You thrive in complex environments where technology, regulation, and sustainability intersect.

    'You'll thrive in this role if you have:

  • A degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
  • Strong knowledge of SCADA, EMS, DCS, and communication protocols such as IEC60870-5-101/104, IEC61850, OPC UA, MQTT, and Kafka.
  • Familiarity with smart grid challenges such as: Limited visibility in low-voltage networks. Integration of EVs, heat pumps, and home energy systems. Cybersecurity risks in OT environments.
  • Strong analytical and communication skills, with the ability to translate technical complexity into actionable insights.
  • A collaborative mindset and the flexibility to work across domains.

    • WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT WORKING HERE

    At Capgemini Engineering, we offer a dynamic, collaborative environment where innovation thrives:

  • An innovative ecosystem embodied by our start-up accelerators.

  • Tech solutions and projects driving impact and paving the way for a sustainable future.

  • Own your growth with open access to digital learning platforms and award-winning career acceleration programs.

    • NEED TO KNOW

  • Due to the nature of this role and security screening, it is only available for candidates with a Dutch or EU-citizenship.
  • Permanent contract from day one, ensuring job security.
  • Competitive salary and benefits package, including remote work allowances and high connectivity options
  • Access to training, certifications, and career development programs.
  • A collaborative and diverse work environment encourages creative problem-solving and teamwork across various industries.
  • Flexible work arrangements, including hybrid work models, to promote a healthy work-life balance
  • 26 vacation days, with the option to purchase additional leave.
