Swedish tidal energy developer Minesto is recruiting for a developer who will build and maintain new and existing test rigs for the company’s products in Gothenburg, Sweden.

As a test rig developer for Minesto, the successful candidate will also be involved in the assembly, and possibly, the installation of Minesto’s tidal prototypes, along with day to day workshop operations, the company said.

Most of the work will be performed in Gothenburg, but the role may also include work activities at other sites located in Wales and Northern Ireland, according to Minesto.

The position is open for applications until December 15, 2017.

Minesto said it is on track to deliver its first commercial project in Holyhead Deep, off the coast of North Wales, where the first Deep Green power plant array will gradually be installed, starting with a commercial-scale 500kW demonstrator planned for 2018.
