Remote Operations Engineer

As a Remote Operations Engineer at the Madrid ROC, you will be part of the strategic core ensuring the global availability of our wind turbine fleet. This high-level technical position focuses on real-time monitoring, advanced diagnostics, and remote incident resolution, directly affecting performance optimization and the reduction of the cost of energy.

• As part of our 24/7 Monitoring Team, your role is built upon three strategic pillars:
• The Technical "Problem Solver":
  You will use advanced SCADA and SAP tools to diagnose why a multi-million euro machine has stopped. Your role is to determine with precision whether you can fix the issue with a single click from Madrid or if a technician must be dispatched to the field
• The Effective Communicator:
  You will manage communications with customers and field technicians during urgent incidents. You demonstrate the ability to translate complex technical problems into simple, professional solutions via both phone and email
• Operational Resilience:
  In a 24/7 environment, your responsibility is paramount. You will maintain high standards and attention to detail—especially during night shifts—remaining consistently meticulous with data and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).

• At Vestas, demonstrated real-world experience and effective problem-solving count more than formal degrees. We are looking for technicians who know the field and want to take their careers to the next digital level:
• Experience:
  
  Minimum 1 year in the Wind Industry (specifically as a Field Technician or in Control Centers). Direct experience with Vestas Turbines is especially valuable.
• Alternative
  
  Experience:
  
  In the absence of wind industry experience, at least 3 years of demonstrable experience in complex hydraulic, electrical, or mechanical systems is required.
• Education:
  
  Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering (Electrical, Electronics, Mechanical, Energy) or Technical Associate Degree (FP Superior) in Electronics, Automation, Robotics, or Renewables.
• Languages:
  
  Intermediate English (B1/B2). You are fluent enough to respond to technical emails and handle emergency calls in an international environment.
• IT Proficient:
  Proficiency with diagnostic tools; prior use of SCADA and SAP is highly valued.
• Availability:
  Ability to work in a 24/7 rotating shift system (including nights and weekends).

Unique Hybrid Flexibility:
Office-based in Madrid during standard shifts, with the opportunity to work from home during night shifts and weekends

Stability: A Madrid-based role with travel requirements only on a very occasional basis

Career Growth:
An opportunity to shift from field-based work to directing operational strategy at a global control center.

Vestas Benefits:
Salary commensurate with experience, health insurance, life insurance, Paid Time Off (PTO), and meal allowance (cheque gourmet)

Performance Bonus:
An annual 5% bonus tied to meeting Vestas' corporate objectives
