Full Job Description

Vattenfall is a European energy company with approximately 21000 employees. For more than 100 years we have electrified industries, supplied energy to people’s homes and modernized our way of living through innovation and cooperation. We now want to make fossil-free living possible within one generation. To be able to reach this ambitious goal we are looking for talented individuals who, in addition to their passion for their own role, also have strong team spirit and want to contribute to supporting a meaningful corporate mission. Within Vattenfall’s offshore wind business, Offshore Development develops, matures and secures our pipeline of future offshore wind projects. The way those projects are designed has a lasting effect on cost, performance, CO2 emissions and long-term energy output. That is why this role matters. In Modelling & Optimisation, we work towards a shared mission: to create the best possible offshore wind farm designs at the click of a button. We are a collaborative team of around 12 people, bringing together engineering, software and optimisation expertise to turn that ambition into practical tools that help people make better decisions. The Modelling & Optimisation team is Vattenfall’s competence centre for technical and financial modelling of offshore wind farms. We develop and maintain an ecosystem of in-house design tools that combine advanced mathematical optimisation, techno-economic modelling and co-simulation of physical models. As Product Manager, you will connect user needs, strategy and delivery, helping us solve the right problems for the people who use our tools. You will also help us explore how new capabilities, including AI-assisted and agentic coding workflows, can strengthen our products and the way we build them. We value openness, curiosity and diverse perspectives, and we believe better solutions are built together. Responsibilities & Tasks You will help set the direction for our wind farm design tool ecosystem, translate str
