A leading end-to-end power solutions and services provider specialising in critical power infrastructure across a range of high-demand sectors including data centres, power generation, healthcare, oil & gas, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, and industrial facilities.

With over 1.5 million square feet of US manufacturing capacity, the company integrates engineering, manufacturing, modular deployment, and lifecycle services under one platform, delivering scalable and resilient infrastructure where uptime is non-negotiable. The company supports clients across the full project lifecycle, from design through to commissioning and ongoing maintenance.

Role Overview

The Principal Electrical Engineer will serve as a subject matter expert and technical authority on large-scale power infrastructure projects.

• Develop and review single line diagrams, protection and coordination studies, schematics, and equipment layouts.
• Partner directly with customers to define robust and scalable power solutions.
• Provide technical leadership across multiple concurrent projects.
• Mentor engineers and elevate technical capability across the team.
• Shape engineering standards and system design approaches.

Skills & Qualifications

• 15–20+ years of experience in electrical engineering.
• Deep expertise in industrial power systems including MV/LV distribution, substations, switchgear, transformers, generators, and UPS systems.
• Strong experience in protection and coordination, with SEL relays preferred.
• Background in industrial, utility, data centre, or large infrastructure projects.
• Experience working within industrial engineering firms or EPC environments.
• PE license highly preferred.
• Master's in physics, Mathematics, or a related field highly desirable.

Benefits & Culture

• Competitive salary package.
• Professional development and training support.

Inclusive and flexible work culture that promotes technical excellence and career growth.
