- Conduct technical evaluations of vendor proposals and review supplier drawings for compliance and approval.

- Create and maintain single-line diagrams for low-, medium-, and high-voltage power systems, including MV/LV motor control and VFD applications.

- Support electrical procurement activities by preparing and reviewing material requisitions (MRs), technical bid evaluations (TBEs), and related engineering documentation.

- Perform electrical load calculations and determine appropriate equipment sizing.

- Develop and maintain electrical load schedules and equipment lists.

- Participate in Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT), equipment inspections, and Integrated Factory Acceptance Tests (IFAT) for substations.

- Ensure all engineering work complies with company standards, client specifications, and applicable industry regulations.

- Review and assess electrical equipment documentation, including material requisitions and vendor-supplied technical information.

- Provide field engineering support during construction and commissioning activities when required.

- Perform system load flow studies using ETAP and support hazardous area classification design activities.





- Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams and provide electrical engineering expertise across projects.

- Design and review single-line diagrams and grounding systems.

- Lead and support Electrical Heat Tracing (EHT) design activities.

- Identify and implement value engineering opportunities to optimize electrical system designs.

- Select and specify electrical equipment and materials suitable for project requirements.

Qualifications
