Job description

GeoPura is revolutionising the way we generate power. As the world moves away from fossil fuels, we provide clean, hydrogen-powered energy solutions that supplement the grid and replace polluting diesel generators to support the transition to net zero. From construction and critical infrastructure to film & TV, live events, and EV charging, our Hydrogen Power Units (HPUs) deliver reliable, zero-emission electricity where it’s needed most.

Already one of the UK’s largest producers of green hydrogen, we’re growing fast. Ranked 6th in The Sunday Times 100 Tech, a list of Britain’s fastest-growing private technology companies, we’ve raised over £114 million in investment from global leaders including Siemens Energy Ventures, National Wealth Fund, Barclays Sustainable Impact Capital, GM Ventures, and SWEN Capital Partners. With strong financial backing and a clear path to scale, we are building a team that will shape the future of energy.

Our technology is already trusted by major organisations such as Balfour Beatty, HS2, National Grid, and the BBC, and we’re just getting started. As we expand across the UK and internationally, in collaboration with Siemens Energy, this is an exciting time to join a company at the forefront of the hydrogen revolution, making a real impact on air quality, carbon reduction, and the future of clean energy.

GeoPura are working in partnership with Siemens Energy to provide this delivery of renewable, zero emission energy at a large and significant scale. With experience in providing zero-emissions power to a wide range of industries – from construction to film and TV production, to outdoor events – GeoPura harnesses hydrogen technology to generate and distribute the vast amount of energy required to decarbonise our global economies. Current clients of GeoPura include Netflix, BBC, HS2 and Polestar EV cars. As we continue to expand, we’re looking for a Graduate Electrical Engineer to join our Research & Development team and play a key role in shaping the future of energy.

• Assisting in the development of innovative technical solutions using cutting-edge technologies
• Working on component selection and electrical system layout
• Conducting engineering calculations and helping ensure our systems meet safety and performance standards
• Creating documentation such as technical drawings, reports, and system diagrams
• Gathering and analysing data from tests and trials
• Collaborating on technical reviews and brainstorming sessions
• Supporting the manufacturing and commissioning of our Hydrogen Power Units (HPUs)

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Installation: Install electrical systems, including wiring, fixtures, and control systems, according to technical drawings and specifications including hydrogen production equipment (electrolysers, compressors)
• Testing: Conduct thorough testing of electrical systems to ensure they are functioning correctly and safely. Use testing instruments to diagnose and troubleshoot any issues.
• Commissioning: Commission electrical systems, ensuring they meet all operational requirements and industry standards. Complete necessary documentation and reports.
• Supervision and approval of work by electrical fitters and subcontractors
• Maintenance: Perform routine maintenance and inspections on electrical systems to ensure ongoing functionality and compliance with safety regulations. Conduct fault diagnosis and repair of hydrogen production equipment.
• Compliance: Ensure all work complies with relevant electrical codes, regulations, and safety standards.
• Documentation: Maintain accurate records of all installations, tests, and commissioning activities. Creation of material lists for electrical installations. Assist Fuel Production Engineering Team with design of site electrical systems.
