Job description

The individual is part of the electrical team and is responsible for the design, integration, testing and troubleshooting of electrical systems for multidisciplinary engineering projects. The role requires a sound understanding of low-voltage power distribution, single-line diagrams and three-phase electrical systems. The individual will work closely with mechanical, controls, software, production and project teams to deliver safe, reliable and compliant solutions within the agreed schedule and budget.

Responsibilities:

• Conduct feasibility studies and support the development of electrical concepts during the early stages of projects.
• Translate customer and project requirements into electrical engineering specifications and design requirements.
• Prepare, review and interpret electrical single-line diagrams, schematic diagrams, wiring diagrams, panel layouts, cable schedules and related technical documentation.
• Design and integrate single-phase and three-phase low-voltage electrical systems, including power distribution, control panels, protection devices, motors, variable-frequency drives and power supplies.
• Perform basic electrical calculations, including load estimation, cable sizing, voltage drop, circuit protection and equipment selection.
• Select and integrate suitable electrical, control, IoT and power-management components in accordance with project requirements.
• Design electrical circuits, control panels, cable harnesses, looms and equipment interconnections.
• Ensure appropriate earthing, bonding, isolation, protection and electrical safety provisions are incorporated into the design.
• Create bills of materials, technical drawings, work instructions and build or rework instructions for the production team.
• Support panel assembly, equipment installation, system integration, testing and commissioning activities in the workshop and at customer sites.
• Develop and execute electrical inspection and test plans, including continuity, insulation, functional and system-level tests where applicable.
• Diagnose and resolve electrical faults involving power distribution, control circuits, sensors, actuators, motors and field wiring.
• Provide timely technical support to production and project teams and resolve design or installation issues.
• Maintain accurate design records and ensure drawings and documentation are updated to reflect the final as-built configuration.
• Comply with applicable electrical standards, workplace safety requirements and company procedures.

Requirements

• Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, or a related discipline.
• Able to read, interpret and prepare single-line diagrams, electrical schematics and wiring diagrams.
• Good working knowledge of single-phase and three-phase electrical systems, low-voltage power distribution, circuit protection, earthing and electrical safety.
• Familiarity with control panels, motors, contactors, relays, circuit breakers, variable-frequency drives, sensors and industrial electrical components.
• Hands‑on ability in electrical installation, testing, commissioning and systematic fault‑finding.
• Familiarity with electrical CAD or schematic design software is an advantage.
• Basic knowledge of PLC‑based control systems and industrial communication interfaces is an advantage.
• Able to work effectively with multidisciplinary teams and communicate technical information clearly.
• Organised, safety‑conscious and able to manage assigned work to meet project schedules and quality requirements.

Only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
