Collaborate with AEMO, DBs, and external partners to ensure engineering excellence
Support project scoping, cost estimating, scheduling and stakeholder engagement
Lead on safety, sustainability, and constructability reviews throughout project lifecycles
Help mitigate technical risk by resolving complex engineering challenges early in design

Tertiary qualification in Electrical Engineering
3+ years' experience in utilities or HV design (up to 500kV)
Strong substation and primary electrical engineering skills
Familiarity with Victoria's regulatory and energy market landscape
