  • Prepare comprehensive reports detailing simulation results, recommendations, and design considerations.


  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date documentation related to power system simulations and design support activities.


Continuous Professional Development:

  • Stay abreast of industry trends, best practices, and emerging technologies.
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of simulation methodologies and tools within the power systems team.


Review:

  • Support Power Systems Engineers in their deliverables.

  • Review models and reports for Power Systems team.


Role Requirements

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Power Engineering.


  • Proven experience in power systems engineering, preferably within the data centre industry

  • Experience with Load Flow, Short Circuit Analysis, Protection Coordination, Arc Flash, Harmonic Studies, and Underground Cable Sizing.
  • Experience in performing Transient Stability Studies is desirable.
  • Experience in performing Earthing Studies is desirable.
  • Demonstrate a deep understanding of the models of main electrical machines, including but not limited to generators, transformers, motors and UPS.
  • Experience in both LV and MV systems, ideally HV up to 132 kV.
