SENIOR ENGINEER (POWER SYSTEMS)
JOB SUMMARY
The Senior Engineer (Power Systems) provides senior-level electrical engineering and technical leadership in the development and delivery of power systems for mining, heavy industrial and related projects.
Reporting to the Electrical Team Lead, the role is responsible for the engineering, analysis and technical execution of medium
- and high-voltage power systems, including electrical distribution, substations, power generation, protection systems, grounding and associated electrical infrastructure. The Senior Engineer (Power Systems) applies sound professional judgment to develop practical, safe and code-compliant engineering solutions while supporting projects from early studies and project development through detailed engineering, construction and commissioning. Working within multidisciplinary project teams, the Senior Engineer (Power Systems) provides technical direction and guidance to engineers, Engineers-in-Training, designers and other technical personnel. Depending on the assignment and the individual’s experience, responsibilities may range from leading defined electrical engineering scopes to providing discipline leadership and senior technical direction on major projects. The position requires a high degree of professional independence and accountability and includes responsibility for the technical quality and completeness of assigned engineering work. The Senior Engineer (Power Systems) works closely with Project Managers, clients, vendors, contractors and other engineering disciplines to coordinate technical requirements and support successful project delivery.
