Job Description

Job Title: Technical Designer – Solar Projects

Company: WhiteShark Energy Private Limited

Location: Rasulgarh, Bhubaneswar (On-site)

Experience: 2–5 years (Freshers with relevant skills may also apply)

Employment Type: Full-time

Salary: ₹15,000 – ₹20,000 per month (based on skill & experience)

About the Role

At WhiteShark Energy, we believe the design of a solar power plant is just as critical as its construction. We’re looking for a technically strong and creatively aware designer who can transform rooftops and open spaces into highly optimized solar systems using precision tools, software, and solid engineering sense.

You will be an integral part of our Engineering Design Team, supporting project planning with detailed 2D/3D layouts, shadow analysis, system simulations, and approval drawings that ensure technical accuracy, performance prediction, and financial clarity.

Key Responsibilities

  • Interpret site visit notes, photos, and rooftop/CAD drawings to create solar plant layouts (residential, commercial, industrial).
  • Prepare 2D and 3D designs using SketchUp, AutoCAD, and similar tools.
  • Conduct shadow analysis and evaluate design feasibility using terrain, orientation, tilt, and shading factors.
  • Run plant performance simulations on PV*Sol / PVsyst / Solar Ladder / Helioscope to estimate monthly & annual energy generation.
  • Create Single Line Diagrams (SLDs), panel layouts, inverter placement plans, and electrical interconnection drawings.
  • Collaborate with the Sales, Engineering, and Procurement teams to translate commercial requirements into technical solutions.
  • Assist in preparing client-ready design decks, approval documentation, and submission files for DISCOMs or net-metering authorities.
  • Support project costing with BOM estimation and design-based variation checks.
  • Stay up to date with solar mounting structures, inverter technologies, and industry best practices in rooftop and ground-mount design.

Skills & Qualifications

  • Degree/Diploma in Electrical Engineering, Energy Systems, Architecture, or a related technical discipline.
  • Proficiency in:
  • SketchUp, AutoCAD, or similar design software
  • PVsyst, Solar Ladder, Helioscope, or other simulation tools
  • MS Excel and Google Sheets for basic calculations and documentation
  • Understanding of basic electrical systems, SLDs, and cable routing.
  • Ability to read and interpret architectural, structural, and electrical drawings.
  • Bonus: Experience with Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW for minor creative elements (not the main focus).
  • Must be detail-oriented, proactive, and collaborative in cross-functional teams.

What You’ll Get

  • A chance to be part of India’s renewable energy growth story.
  • Full exposure to project planning, technical design, and on-ground execution.
  • Opportunity to work on cutting-edge tools and shape real-world solar systems.
  • A workplace that values design precision and technical creativity equally.
  • Future opportunities to grow into design lead, project engineering, or tech-sales roles.
