Join us in this role where you’ll be a technical go-to person for complex turbine faults and corrective work. You’ll prepare work packages, analyse turbine issues, support technicians offshore, and help develop safe and effective work instructions for Siemens direct-drive 6 MW turbines.

You’ll play an important role in:

To succeed in the role, you:

• have strong troubleshooting experience with Siemens direct-drive 6 MW wind turbines or closely comparable turbine technology
• have completed an electrical apprenticeship, recognised technical training, or equivalent experience
• bring extensive knowledge of electrical and mechanical turbine systems, fault diagnosis, SCADA, and specialist tooling
