• Run sag-tension, clearance and other basic electrical and mechanical calculations.
• Coordinate with tower and foundation design teams.
• Prepare BOQs, technical reports and project documentation in line with IEC, IEEE and IS standards.
• Join site visits when a project needs them.

What you bring

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Mechanical or Civil Engineering.
• 1–5 years of experience in transmission line design or closely related power line engineering.
• You have worked on real lines: produced profile drawings, spotted towers, or run sag-tension or clearance checks on an actual project.
• Working knowledge of PLS-CADD, AutoCAD or similar line design tools.
• Strong MS Excel skills for calculations and BOQs.
