What are you going to do

Position: Senior Design Engineer

Contract: On Permanent Role.

This is a technical design engineering role focusing on Solar Photovoltaic (PV) renewable solutions. The position involves both pre and post-sales design engineering activities, aimed at delivering the most optimal solar PV solutions to clients. You will report to the CEO and collaborate closely with the commercial, bid & proposal management team, contributing the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) details for projects related to ground-mounted solar PV systems.

Roles and Responsibilities:

• Project Proposals & Design: Prepare proposals, plan, and design new solar projects.
• Engineering Documentation: Analyze data and prepare detailed engineering documents and drawings.
• System Design: Develop AC and DC Single Line Diagrams (SLDs), cable sizing, cable scheduling, and provide inputs for module and Balance of System (BOS) selection.
• Off-grid & On-grid Systems: Responsible for designing off-grid, on-grid, and utility-scale systems, especially those with a minimum voltage of 33 kV.
• Tender and Estimation Support: Provide estimation, sales support, and tendering assistance for new solar projects and design requests.
• Collaboration: Engage with the site team, internal stakeholders, EPC contractors, and clients to ensure timely project delivery.
• Solar PV Electrical System Design: Design electrical systems for solar PV projects (DC & AC system, LV, HV, EHV Substation/Switchyard/Transmission). Knowledge of PVSyst software is preferred.
• Standards Compliance: Demonstrate expertise in IEC, IEEE, and IS standards.
• Project Design Experience: Have experience designing a minimum of 5 MW AC single plants and cumulative solar capacities of at least 50 MW.
