Electrical Design Engineer (HV Power Systems)

Hamilton

HV Distribution • Connections • Utilities • Rail

We’re recruiting an experienced HV Electrical Design Engineer to work across major power projects and connection schemes. This role covers the full design lifecycle — not just drawings — from feasibility and modelling through to construction, delivery and commissioning.

If you’re someone who can own complex power design and wants a role with autonomy and responsibility, this is the one worth looking at.

The Role

This is full-scope HV design, not CAD support.

You will:

* Design and specify HV distribution systems up to 33kV

* Model power networks (fault studies, load analysis, protection coordination)

* Produce technical documentation, drawings and engineering specs

* Ensure compliance with DNO/ICP/ISO and industry standards

* Represent engineering in client and contractor meetings

* Conduct site surveys and ensure installation aligns with design

* Manage project delivery including cost, procurement and quality

What You’ll Need

We’re looking for someone who can operate confidently in the HV space:

* HND/HNC or higher in Electrical Engineering

* 5+ years HV design experience

* Experience with power modelling software (ETAP / PowerFactory / Amtech etc.)

* Strong documentation and technical writing skills

* Understanding of HV networks, connections and utility design

* IET registration (or working towards it)

AutoCAD experience is useful, but this isn’t a CAD technician role — it’s a power systems engineer position
