Why This Role?

• Work on Australia's most advanced BESS projects - including cutting-edge grid-forming technology that's reshaping how batteries support grid stability
• High-impact technical leadership in a newly created role where you'll shape the direction of grid integration strategy
• End-to-end project involvement - from early-stage feasibility and bidding through to commissioning and R2 approvals
• Industry influence - represent the company in working groups and technical forums, directly influencing Australia's energy transition
• Technical mastery - work with the most sophisticated PSCAD/EMT modelling for next-generation inverter-based resources
• Competitive package with flexible location options across Melbourne, Sydney, or Perth
• Global opportunities within an established technology leader with international project exposure
• Be at the forefront of grid-forming deployment - technology that's critical to Australia's renewable energy future
