In this role, you will have the opportunity to shape the electrical architecture of a first-of-a-kind power plant and define how it interacts with both internal consumers and the wider electrical grid. You will drive the modernization of power system monitoring, diagnostics, and predictive maintenance strategies, leveraging data and digital technologies to improve reliability and operational performance. Beyond the plant itself, you will help develop innovative grid-facing capabilities and online services, exploring new ways for power generation assets to create value through advanced connectivity, flexibility, and participation in the evolving energy ecosystem.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Define and develop the plant's electrical architecture, ensuring reliable and efficient operation across diverse electrical loads and systems.
• Lead grid integration studies and analyses, including load flow, fault, stability, power quality, and protection coordination assessments.
• Specify and oversee the integration of electrical equipment, including transformers, switchgear, protection systems, and power conversion technologies.
• Establish monitoring, diagnostics, and condition-based maintenance approaches to improve asset reliability and reduce unplanned downtime.
• Develop predictive maintenance frameworks using operational and equipment health data.
• Evaluate and develop opportunities for advanced grid services, including flexibility, ancillary services, demand response, and other emerging market offerings.
• Explore innovative digital and online services that can enhance plant performance, operational visibility, and value creation within future energy systems.

WHO YOU ARE

• You have a University (Higher education) degree in Electrical Engineering, Control Systems, Computer Science or equivalent
• You have a strong background in electrical engineering, control systems, or a related field, with hands-on experience in industrial environments
• You are adaptable and motivated to grow with evolving technologies and increasing system complexity
• Experience in grid integration, or electrical infrastructure for industrial, utility-scale, or energy-related facilities is a plus
• Knowledge of reactive power compensation is a plus
