Solar Project Engineer

Role Overview

The Solar Project Engineer is a technical anchor throughout the life cycle of a solar project — from pre-sales through detailed engineering, execution, commissioning, and hand-over to operations. You will act as a bridge between design, procurement, site execution, and client teams to ensure that every project meets technical, safety, schedule, and budget objectives.

Key Responsibilities
  • Site Assessment & Feasibility

  • Conduct on-site surveys, assess technical and structural feasibility, evaluate grid availability, and prepare preliminary load analysis and yield projections.
  • Engineering & Design Coordination

  • Review and validate system designs, single-line diagrams (SLDs), and layouts prepared by the design team. Ensure alignment with project specifications, local regulations, MNRE/CEA guidelines, and IEC/IEEE standards.
  • Procurement & Vendor Coordination

  • Support procurement teams by reviewing technical datasheets, vendor offers, and equipment certifications to ensure compliance and cost-effectiveness.
  • Project Execution & Supervision

  • Oversee on-site activities, including civil, mechanical, and electrical works; supervise subcontractors; enforce quality assurance (QA/QC) procedures; and ensure adherence to HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment) policies.
  • Testing & Commissioning

  • Prepare and execute commissioning plans, witness performance testing, coordinate grid synchronization, and ensure delivery of all as-built documentation.
  • Client & Stakeholder Communication

  • Serve as a technical point of contact for clients, consultants, and internal departments. Provide progress updates, resolve technical queries, and maintain transparent documentation.
  • Project Close-Out & Handover

  • Prepare final reports, punch lists, and training sessions for O&M teams, ensuring smooth transition from construction to operations.
Required Qualifications and Skills
  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, or Renewable Energy Engineering (Master’s degree is an advantage).
  • 2–4 years of experience in EPC (Engineering, Procurement & Construction) or IPP (Independent Power Producer) solar PV projects.
  • Strong understanding of PV technology, grid-connected systems, inverters, SCADA, earthing, and protection systems.
  • Working knowledge of project management tools, AutoCAD, and PV design software (PVsyst, Helioscope, or equivalent).
  • Familiarity with regulatory approval processes, utility interconnection standards, and net-metering policies.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to thrive under deadlines in multi-site, cross-functional environments.
  • Willingness to travel to project locations as required.
