- Develop electrical schematics, control diagrams, wiring diagrams, and other technical drawings
- Perform electrical calculations, including cable calculations and other engineering assessments
- Engineer protection, control, and substation automation systems for MV/HV installations
- Develop technical solutions for new-build, expansion, and renovation projects
- Review technical drawings, calculations, specifications, and other engineering documentation
- Carry out site surveys and assess existing electrical installations
- Discuss technical findings, requirements, and engineering solutions with clients and project team members
- Coordinate engineering activities with other disciplines throughout the project lifecycle
- Identify technical risks or engineering issues and develop practical solutions
- Support engineers and provide technical guidance and coaching where required
- Ensure engineering activities comply with applicable standards, safety requirements, project specifications, and quality procedures
Your Profile
- MBO or HBO level qualification in Electrical Engineering, Energy Technology, or a related technical discipline
- Several years of relevant electrical engineering experience, ideally within medium- and/or high-voltage environments
- Strong experience with secondary installations, protection and control systems, or substation engineering
- Experience designing and developing electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and control circuits
- Knowledge of medium- and high-voltage electrical installations
- Understanding of protection systems, relay protection, control systems, and/or substation automation
- Experience performing electrical calculations, including cable calculations
- Experience with engineering software such as EPLAN, ELCAD, Intelec, or similar electrical design tools is an advantage
- Experience working on new-build, expansion, and/or renovation projects
- Comfortable carrying out site surveys and discussing technical solutions directly with clients and colleagues
- Able to work independently while also contributing effectively within multidisciplinary project teams
- Experience supporting or coaching other engineers is advantageous
