Job Description

An electrical engineering role focussed on the design development and implementation of high-power electrical systems for our MAX energy storage solutions. You will be responsible for AC control panel design and sign-off working with standard 3-phase 400V AC and HV DC systems at MW power levels exceeding 1MW.

Lead the electrical design of power distribution systems control panels and electrical integration for our battery energy storage products. This includes developing electrical schematics single line diagrams and field wiring diagrams whilst ensuring compliance with relevant industry standards including UL508A and IEC61439-1/2.

Work closely with our multidisciplinary team to deliver robust scalable electrical systems that integrate seamlessly with our battery management systems power electronics and grid connection requirements. You will take ownership of electrical designs from concept through to commissioning ensuring optimal performance safety and regulatory compliance.

The role offers an excellent opportunity to work on cutting-edge energy storage technology within a rapidly growing and dynamic company. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with high-power electrical systems and a strong understanding of industrial control panels and power distribution at the MW scale.
 

Responsibilities

Design and Specification of AC Control Panels and Harnesses: 

  • Lead the specification and detailed design of low-voltage AC boxes and internal wiring harnesses for high-power BESS units.
  • Responsibilities include selecting appropriate contactors protection devices current measurement equipment and digital meters; designing modular internal harnesses for efficient assembly and diagnostics; and ensuring compliance with relevant standards such as IEC 61439 and UL508A.
  • Experience with CAN-enabled devices high-voltage segregation practices and integration of inverter synchronisation logic is highly desirable.

Electrical Systems Design

  • Design and develop electrical systems for battery energy storage solutions at MW power levels (1MW)
  • Create electrical schematics single line diagrams and field wiring diagrams
  • Design and sign-off on AC control panels for 3-phase 400V systems and HV DC
  • Specify and select electrical components including switchgear protection devices transformers and control systems
  • Ensure designs comply with relevant standards including UL508A IEC61439-1/2 and grid connection requirements

Integration and Testing

  • Collaborate with mechanical and software teams to ensure seamless integration
  • Develop testing specifications and commissioning procedures for systems
  • Support build of systems commissioning and troubleshooting activities
  • Coordinate with I/O circuits for main PLC controllers and safety systems

Documentation and Compliance

  • Generate comprehensive technical documentation including BOMs installation guides and maintenance procedures
  • Ensure all designs meet safety requirements and industry standards for high-voltage high-power applications
  • Support certification processes and regulatory approvals for grid-tied systems
  • Maintain design documentation and version control throughout project lifecycle

Qualifications :

Must-haves
