About This Role

A key member of our System Design division, you will play a pivotal role in shaping Australia's energy landscape. As the energy sector undergoes a once-in-a-generation transformation driven by renewables and electrification, there is an exciting surge in transmission connection projects.

Our Onboarding and Connections team leads the end-to-end process of connection and registering new generators into the National Electricity Market (NEM). With over 160 GW of new generation expected to come online in the next 30 years, we're looking for a senior engineer to help bring this vision to life.

You'll work on integrating a mix of technologies, from wind, solar, hydro, battery storage, and hydrogen, and collaborate with a wide range of stakeholders including network service providers, developers, investors, manufacturers, consultants, government bodies, regulators, and industry experts.

Your Key Responsibilities:
  • Manage large-scale, technically complex projects from inception to commercial operation.
  • Offer expert support and guidance to regional teams, ensuring seamless project delivery.
  • Build collaborative relationships with clients by proactively addressing project challenges with practical solutions and continuous improvement in technical processes.
  • Make decisions grounded in solid data, clearly documented, and made with transparency and pragmatism.
  • Provide high-level technical advice and lead decision making across key areas such as performance standards, power system stability, system strength solutions, registration, and project commissioning.
  • Use solution-oriented approaches to problem solving.
  • Support the growth of technical staff and stakeholders through hands-on mentoring, coaching, and knowledge sharing to build a culture of continuous learning and excellence.
  • Contribute to regulatory advancements that support the integration of large-scale renewable energy projects into the Australian electricity market, helping drive the transition to a cleaner energy future.
Requirements:
  • Relevant tertiary qualification in Electrical Engineering or other discipline relevant to power systems analysis.
  • Proven leadership in delivering medium to large-scale, technically complex projects with a pragmatic, outcome-driven approach.
  • Strong expertise in power system modelling tools (e.g. PSSE, PSCAD) with the ability to interpret and apply study results effectively.
  • Well-developed experience in managing generator connection processes and resolving performance issues within the National Electricity Market (NEM).
  • Skilled in navigating complex stakeholder negotiations, balancing technical, commercial, and reputational considerations.
  • Solid understanding of the electricity industry, including NEM operations, generator behaviour, network constraints, and the commercial/legal aspects of large-scale infrastructure projects.

We welcome people of all backgrounds, including people with disabilities and neurodivergence and those who identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander. If you have accessibility requirements to support you during the application or interview process, please let us know.
