Pubblicato il 13-08-2026 - Hitachi Vantara in Genova
As a BESS System Architect, you are the technical authority for end‑to‑end Battery Energy Storage System architecture, spanning grid, electrical balance of plant, batteries, power conversion, automation, software, and services. This is a non‑managerial yet pivotal role within the T&SD; organization, critical to both execution excellence and future differentiation. You ensure architectural coherence, technical robustness, and long‑term scalability of GPQSS BESS solutions, supporting R&D; projects and providing expert support to CoC (tendering & execution) and to Technology and Product Management in roadmap definition. The role requires strong system‑level thinking, the ability to author architecture and system specification documents, and credibility to influence multidisciplinary teams without line authority.
How you'll make an impact
System Architecture & Technical Authority
- Define, maintain, and evolve the end-to-end BESS system architecture from grid to cell , including EBoP, PCS, batteries, protection, automation, software, and services.
- Act as architectural backbone for R&D; projects, ensuring technical coherence during development and integration.
- Own the system architecture framework , reference models, and design principles for GPQSS BESS solutions.
- Author and maintain architecture and system specification documents aligned with GPQSS standards and comparable in depth and clarity to existing BESS architecture analyses.
System Requirements & Integration
- Lead system-level requirement definition , ensuring traceability across disciplines and lifecycle phases.
- Identify and manage cross-domain dependencies (electrical, mechanical, control, software, cybersecurity, services).
- Support architectural trade-offs related to performance, safety, cost, scalability, and lifecycle value.
Tendering & Execution Support
- Provide architectural guidance during tendering, feasibility studies, and pre‑FEED activities.
- Support execution teams by resolving complex s
