Perth, Australia Monford Group Full time

About Monford Group

Built from the ground up by a hands‑on management team, Monford Group is driven by integrity, quality, and efficiency. As a leader in construction, we deliver landmark projects across the Infrastructure, Resources, and Energy sectors nationwide.

Whether we’re delivering Construction-Only, Design & Construct, or EPC projects, our reputation is built on doing what we say — delivering safely, on time, and on budget. Our commitment to excellence and innovation has positioned Monford as a trusted name across Australia.

About the Role

We’re seeking a Senior PV Design Engineer who brings a blend of site‑based experience and design expertise to join our growing Perth engineering team.

If you’ve spent time on site and know what works in practice but you’re ready to move into a more office‑based design leadership role (with the occasional trip to site) this is your opportunity to make that transition while staying connected to real project delivery.

You’ll work across major renewable and infrastructure projects, leading electrical design development from concept through to commissioning, collaborating closely with our in‑house engineering and delivery teams as well as clients and vendors.

What You’ll Be Doing

- Lead the design, documentation, and verification of PV and electrical systems for large‑scale renewable projects.

- Prepare and review detailed design documentation including SLDs, layout drawings, equipment sizing, interface wiring, I/O lists, calculations, and technical reports.

- Provide engineering support for substations, protection systems, and grid connections, applying your practical site knowledge to ensure designs are truly buildable.

- Conduct and review power system studies (load flow, short circuit, protection coordination, earthing) using tools such as DIgSILENT, ETAP, CDEGS, or CYMCAP.

- Collaborate with project managers and construction teams to ensure seamless handover from design to delivery.

- Offer technical input during procurement, FAT/SAT testing, commissioning, and site inspections when required.

Why You’ll Love Working with Us

- Career Growth: Be supported with paid training, professional memberships, and clear development pathways.

- Work–Life Balance: We value flexibility, wellbeing, and making sure our people enjoy what they do.

- Recognition: Your efforts won’t go unnoticed — we celebrate our people through awards, milestones, and genuine appreciation.

- Team Culture: You’ll be joining a collaborative, approachable, and forward‑thinking crew that embodies our RIPPA values every day.

About You

- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (essential).

- 10+ years’ experience in electrical design across large‑scale PV, infrastructure, or utilities projects.

- Proven exposure to HV/MV substation design, grid connection, and protection systems.

- Strong grasp of both AC and DC systems, with practical understanding gained from time spent on site.

- Excellent communication skills and confidence working with clients, vendors, and multidisciplinary teams.

Ready to Join Us?

At Monford, our RIPPA values — Resilience, Innovation, Positivity, Performance, and Approachability — are at the heart of everything we do. If you’re ready to be part of a team that values integrity, teamwork, and excellence in delivery, this is your chance to make an impact.
