Duties

• Review and challenge LV and MV electrical designs across utility-scale BESS projects
• Develop concept and preliminary electrical designs for brownfield integration works
• Define cable routes, switchboard interfaces and equipment layouts
• Support technical decisions across grid connection, balance of plant and commissioning activities
• Manage external engineering consultants and EPC partners throughout project delivery

Skills & Experience

• Strong understanding of switchboards, protection systems, cable sizing and electrical schematics
• Experience integrating new assets into existing brownfield infrastructure
• Ability to interpret single line diagrams, protection philosophies and detailed electrical drawings
• Electrical Engineering degree recognised in Australia

Benefits

• Flexible work arrangements
• Exposure to utility-scale battery storage projects from concept through to operation
• Direct access to senior leadership and technical decision-making
• Long-term career growth within a rapidly expanding energy platform
