The Position

We are seeking a hands on HV Electrical Engineer to join our VIC Electrical team. This role is delivery focused and suited to an engineer who enjoys being technically involved in high voltage / medium voltage design, rather than leading teams.

Reporting to the Section Manager, you will work within a specialist HV capability while supporting broader electrical project teams across the business. The role supports a growing portfolio of mission critical, health, defence, and large-scale infrastructure projects.

This is an excellent opportunity for an engineer who wants to lead technical solutions in HV/MV systems while working on some of the most complex projects in the market.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Delivering hands on HV / MV electrical design across a range of projects
• Designing and contributing to:
• HV / MV networks (typically 22kV–33kV)
• Substations and HV reticulation
• Transformers, RMUs, HV switchboards
• HV generators and distribution systems
• Preparing and contributing to:
• Feasibility studies
• Business cases
• Technical reports and design documentation
• Using industry standard power systems software to complete studies and design
• Supporting multidisciplinary teams and collaborating with internal and external stakeholders
• Providing technical input across mission critical (data centres), hospitals, defence facilities, and complex commercial projects
  

Who We’re Looking For

• Core Capability
• A technical “doer” – not a people manager
• Comfortable working independently and within a small specialist team
• Willing and able to support other electrical teams as required
• Technical Requirements
• Proven experience in High Voltage / Medium Voltage electrical design
• Strong working knowledge of AS 2067
• Demonstrated experience in earth grid design
• Competency in power systems software, including:
• SKM Power Tools
• ETAP (essential)
• Ability to contribute designs to circa 50% design level and beyond
• Experience across mission critical projects (or similar complex infrastructure) highly regarded
• Communication & Ways of Working
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Experience preparing technical documentation, feasibility studies, and business cases
• Collaborative team player who communicates clearly with engineers, clients, and consultants
• Comfortable working within a nationally distributed team environment
  

Your Background

• Degree qualified Electrical Engineer
• Experience across the full project lifecycle in building services or major infrastructure
• Experience in sectors such as:
• Mission critical / data centres
• Health
• Defence
• Large commercial or infrastructure projects
• Knowledge of Australian Standards and codes relevant to HV/MV design
• Professional registrations (NER, CPEng) advantageous but not essential
