R&D AI Prompt & Agent Specialist in Power Electronics - IDC

Overview

Design and deliver generative AI copilots, agents and knowledge tools for power electronics engineers within Hitachi Energy Power Conversion Solutions, grounded in approved sources and traceable to them.

What you'll do

• Design, develop and maintain AI prompts, copilots and agent-based workflows that measurably improve power electronics engineering productivity, consistency and quality.
• Translate engineering use cases into clear requirements, data flows, tool architecture, acceptance criteria, risk controls and deployment plans.
• Build retrieval and knowledge solutions grounded in approved product documents, engineering rules and validated data sources, with clear source traceability.
• Create representative evaluation datasets and measure accuracy, traceability, robustness, latency, user adoption and business value before and after release.
• Implement guardrails, human-review steps, permissions, monitoring and auditability, and partner with power electronics experts to validate outputs and prevent unsupported or untraceable engineering conclusions.
• Integrate AI tools with approved enterprise platforms, repositories and engineering applications in close cooperation with Digital, IT and cybersecurity stakeholders.
• Maintain prompts, agents, documentation, versioning, test evidence and user guidance throughout the complete tool life cycle.
• Run pilots, train users, gather structured feedback and continuously improve solutions based on measurable engineering outcomes, contributing reusable AI patterns and knowledge-sharing practices across the global organization.
• Ensure compliance with applicable external and internal regulations, procedures and guidelines.
