INTEL JOB POSTING
Elec vehicle Utility Research - 574571
Description
 Perform research in the field of electric vehicle (EV) to utility grid
interface with a focus on optimization algorithms to support smart
charging and vehicle-to-grid transactions of EVs. Research will be
conducted into the application of optimization in a distributed fashion
rather than through a hierarchical architecture with aggregators.
Proposed algorithms will be tested in a simulation environment modeling
an electric distribution network with various levels of EV penetration.
Optimization may be for minimal cost while taking into account EV
owners� charging preferences and travel requirements, and local
distribution system capacity.
Qualifications
 Candidate must have a strong background in power systems, power
electronics, linear systems, control systems and optimization theory. A
general knowledge of EV power train and energy storage technologies are a
strong plus. Proficient in the use of Matlab/Simulink and electric
circuit simulators. A strong track record in publishing technical papers
or technical accomplishments in related fields is also a plus. Candidate
must be self-motivated, have strong communication and team skills.
Education: Ph.D. candidate in electrical engineering. Masters degree
candidates with exceptional skills in the desired areas will also be
considered.
