Lead Engineer - Substation ( Secondary )

Responsible for engineering design and modification activities related to electrical & electronic circuits, systems, and equipment. May involve the installation and operation & maintenance of electrical systems and equipment.

Discipline concerning power systems, electronic and transmission equipment, electric service and supply systems, lighting systems, communication service and supply systems, fire alarm and detection systems, control systems or electrical installations.

An electrical engineer focuses on designing, maintaining and improving products that are powered by or produce electricity. Electrical engineering deals with electricity, electro-magnetism and electronics. It also covers power, control systems, telecommunications and signal processing. These engineers are usually concerned with large-scale electrical systems such as motor control and power transmission, as well as utilizing electricity to transmit energy.

• Master of Engineering degree (or equivalent education) in an appropriate engineering discipline from an accredited college or university.

• Chartered Engineer (CEng), or Professional Engineer (PE) license or equivalent in the relevant field from any global organization (e.g., Institution of Electrical Engineers, UK)
• Overall 10+ years of work experience is preferred.
• Prior experience in leading large design engineering teams performing Grid Substation design in a global consultancy firm is preferred.
• Experience on HV Plant Design for large EHV Grid Substations is mandatory.
• Previous experience in design teams working for Grid Utilities (for e.g., National Grid, Transgrid, Powergrid etc,) is highly desirable
• Experience in preparation of Subsation Protection and COntrol Scheme drawings, Relay Coordination and Settings, Panel GA drawings, Substation SCADA and communication protocols, etc is preferred.
• Exposure to International standards (IEC, IEEE, ANSI, Australian Standards and Middle East region codes and standards) is preferred.
• Previous design experience working with GIS and AIS EHV substation HV Plant Primary design is preferable* Chartership with IET-UK, EA or equivalent is desirable
• Very good communication skills (Oral and Written) in English language is mandatory

Performs specific and moderate portions of a broader assignment of an experienced engineer.
Gathers and correlates basic engineering data using established and well-defined procedures.Works on detailed or routine engineering assignments involving calculations and relatively simple tests.Proposes approach to solve new problems encountered using modifications of standard procedures or methods developed in previous assignments.Identifies discrepancies in results.Provides guidance to entry level engineers.Performs work in accordance with agreed upon budget and schedule with little supervision.Independently performs all the tasks necessary to complete primary designelements for engineering works. Performance at this level requires developmental experience in a professional position.
