Key Responsibilities

• Develop single‑line diagrams, wiring layouts, and panel designs using AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, or similar CAD tools.
• Perform load calculations, short‑circuit analyses, and voltage drop studies to validate design integrity.
• Coordinate with multidisciplinary teams to integrate electrical systems with mechanical, civil, and software components.
• Prepare bills of materials, specification sheets, and installation instructions for manufacturing and field teams.
• Review vendor submittals, conduct design reviews, and ensure compliance with NEC, IEC, and local codes.
• Support troubleshooting efforts during commissioning and provide technical guidance to installation crews.

Requirements

Education & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electrical Technology, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• Minimum 3 years of professional experience in electrical design for power distribution, industrial controls, or renewable energy systems.
• Proficiency with CAD software (AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, SolidWorks Electrical, or similar) and familiarity with simulation tools (ETAP, SKM PowerTools, or DIgSILENT).

Technical Skills

• Strong grasp of electrical theory, circuit protection, and power quality principles.
• Ability to read and interpret single‑line diagrams, schematics, and layout drawings.
• Knowledge of industry standards such as NEC, IEC 60364, IEEE, and UL.
• Excellent organizational skills with attention to detail and the capacity to manage multiple projects simultaneously.

Soft Skills

• Effective communicator who can convey technical concepts to both engineering and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Self‑motivated, proactive, and comfortable working independently in a remote environment.
• Team‑oriented mindset with a willingness to mentor junior designers and share best practices.
