Step into a role where your expertise fuels innovation and your leadership shapes the next generation of energy systems.

How You’ll Make an Impact

• Lead and govern MV station engineering, defining standards, technical rules, and approving key design concepts while ensuring consistent best‑practice application across all regions.
• Own and standardize MV transformer station designs, including MV/LV stations, compact substations, indoor/outdoor MV substations, and data‑center MV nodes, driving modularization and creation of standard BOMs and design libraries.
• Ensure robust protection, control, and grid compliance, covering relay coordination, SCADA/remote control, metering, and adherence to IEC/EN/IEEE standards, acting as technical authority with utilities and hyperscale customers.
• Support project execution end‑to‑end, offering guidance during technical clarifications, design reviews, FAT/SAT, and site challenges, resolving complex engineering issues and ensuring right‑first‑time deliverables.
• Lead value engineering and competitiveness initiatives, optimizing footprint, materials, losses, cooling, installation efforts, and supporting Sales/Tendering with technical concepts, risk assessments, and deviations.
• Drive quality, safety, compliance, and innovation, ensuring adherence to safety and regulatory standards, leading RCA/lessons learned, supporting audits, and enabling readiness for digital substations, hybrid AC/DC, sustainability, and future technologies.

What You Bring

• Master’s or Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, ideally with a focus on Power Systems.
• 10–15+ years of experience in MV engineering, substations, or power distribution, including leadership of engineering teams.
• Proven expertise in MV switchgear (AIS/GIS), MV/LV transformers, and protection & control systems for utility and industrial substations.
• Strong knowledge of IEC standards (62271, 60076, 61936, 61439) and MV system design up to 36 kV.
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills, with a structured, risk-aware engineering mindset and a strong technical authority and decision-making capability.
• Fluency in written and spoken English is required; any additional language is a nice to have.
