With the power of many curious minds, together we can solve the world’s most complex challenges and deliver more impact together. Role description: We are seeking a talented and motivated Electrical Engineer to join our Ports and Marine team. In this role, you will contribute to the planning, design, coordination, and delivery of electrical systems for complex port, harbour, marine terminal, and waterfront infrastructure projects. You will work as part of a multidisciplinary team to support safe, reliable, resilient, and sustainable marine infrastructure solutions that enable efficient port operations and support coastal communities, trade, and transportation networks. The successful candidate will bring strong technical capability in the design and delivery of electrical systems for ports and marine environments, a collaborative mindset, and a passion for solving complex infrastructure and operational challenges. This role offers the opportunity to work across a range of projects, from feasibility studies and concept development through detailed design, procurement, construction support, commissioning, and operational improvements. Role accountabilities: As an Electrical Engineer in our Ports and Marine team, you will support the design and engineering of electrical systems for a wide range of port, harbour, marine terminal, ferry, container, bulk handling, and waterfront infrastructure projects. This includes medium and low voltage power distribution, shore power and vessel utility connections, lighting, grounding and bonding, backup power and UPS systems, communications, controls, and associated electrical infrastructure. You will contribute across concept, preliminary, and detailed design phases for berths, wharves, piers, terminals, yards, substations, service buildings, utility corridors, and related marine facilities, applying strong technical and analytical problem‑solving skills to help deliver safe, reliable, efficient, and sustainable infrastructure solutions. You will prepare and review technical reports, engineering calculations, design drawings, specifications, equipment layouts, cable routing, load studies, short‑circuit and coordination studies, and other key project documents to ensure they meet project requirements, applicable codes and standards, client expectations, and operational needs. This work will require attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and the ability to manage priorities while delivering high‑quality work within deadlines. You will also apply relevant ports, marine, and electrical engineering best practices, taking a proactive and solutions‑oriented approach to identifying technical issues, constructability considerations, project risks, and opportunities for improvement, with a focus on achieving practical, value‑driven outcomes for clients and port stakeholders. Working closely with multidisciplinary teams, you will coordinate with civil, structural, geotechnical, coastal, mechanical, process, automation, environmental,
and operations disciplines to support integrated project delivery. Success in this role will depend on your ability to work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary and client‑focused environment, as well as your effective written and verbal communication skills. You will also assist with coordination across clients, port authorities, terminal operators, vessel operators, contractors, utilities, regulatory bodies, and project partners, helping to maintain alignment, build strong working relationships, and support efficient project execution throughout the project lifecycle. You will also support project delivery in line with scope, schedule, budget, quality, health and safety, sustainability, and resilience objectives. Depending on project needs, this may include participating in site visits, marine facility inspections, field investigations, condition assessments, construction support activities, commissioning support, and troubleshooting of electrical systems in operational port environments. You may also contribute to proposals, technical submissions, feasibility assessments, cost estimates, and project planning.
