Job Summary
We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced engineering manager to join our team. The successful candidate will have a minimum of 10 years of experience in the solar field core.
Responsibilities
• End-to-end design management for solar projects—from feasibility studies to commissioning.
• Review project proposals and cost control measures and optimize energy yield through design optimization.
• Responsible for conceptual and detailed engineering for solar PV systems (ground-mounted, rooftop, hybrid).
• Ensure optimal system performance through shading analysis, tilt optimization, and inverter/load balancing.
• Strong grasp of electrical engineering principles and load calculations.
• Review the single-line diagrams, layout drawings, and electrical schematics for approvals.
• Develop engineering standards, templates, and workflows for consistent project delivery.
• Collaborate with business development and finance teams to assess technical feasibility and ROI. • Drive innovation in system design, storage integration, and performance optimization.
• Proficiency with MS Project, Primavera.
• Knowledge of SCADA systems & energy management systems—Solar Log, Meteo control, etc.
• Stay updated with the latest advancements in solar technology and industry best practices
• Managed cross-functional teams across multiple geographies across MENA, India, and Southeast Asia.
• Manage multidisciplinary engineering teams (civil, electrical, structural).
• Interface with clients, EPC contractors, consultants, and regulatory bodies.
• Monitor KPIs like energy output, system uptime, and cost per watt.
• Resolve technical bottlenecks and ensure timely delivery.
• Reduced LCOE (Levelized Cost of Energy) through design optimization.
• Experience with IPP models and open access schemes.
• Experience with energy storage systems and hybrid solar installations
• Validate energy yield simulations using tools like PV Syst. and Helioscope and ensure compliance with NEC, IEC, and local grid codes
• Ensure grid compliance and interconnection standards (e.g., IEEE, IEC, DEWA regulations).
Career Milestones
• Engineered and commissioned at least 300+ MWp of solar PV projects.
• Reduced LCOE (Levelized Cost of Energy) by 18% through design optimization.
• Led cross-border teams across MENA, India, and Southeast Asia.
• Familiarity with DEWA, ADWEA, and MASDAR standards.
• Experience with IPP models and open access schemes.
• Knowledge of desert climate engineering challenges (e.g., dust mitigation, thermal losses). Qualifications
• Bachelor’s/master’s in electrical, mechanical, or renewable energy engineering.
• Certifications: NABCEP PV Installation Professional, PMP, OSHA, DEWA-approved engineer (for UAE).
• Languages: English (fluent), Arabic (preferred in GCC), and technical writing proficiency.
