Our client is a leading engineering solutions provider delivering innovative and practical solutions across a diverse range of industries, including water and wastewater, utilities, infrastructure, manufacturing, and food and beverage.

With a team of highly experienced engineers, the business works closely with its clients to develop tailored solutions that enhance productivity, efficiency, reliability, safety, and cost-effectiveness. The organisation prides itself on its client-focused approach and its ability to deliver practical engineering outcomes that create measurable value.

Due to continued growth across key industry sectors, our client is expanding its Brisbane team and is seeking an experienced Senior Power Systems Engineer to join the business on a permanent basis.

This is an excellent opportunity to work across a diverse portfolio of challenging and technically interesting projects, with involvement throughout the full project lifecycle — from concept and design through to commissioning.

The role will involve a combination of office-based engineering and hands-on site work. Responsibilities will include design development, complex power system analysis, technical documentation and reporting, as well as direct engagement with clients. Site-based activities may include data collection, equipment configuration, testing, troubleshooting, and commissioning.

• Interpret client requirements and develop comprehensive engineering design documentation, drawings, scopes of work, risk assessments, equipment specifications, and supporting technical documentation.

• Undertake investigations, studies, and detailed analysis of industrial, mining, and utility power systems.

• Manage project schedules, budgets, and deliverables to ensure successful project outcomes.

• Work independently while also leading and coordinating small project teams.

• Support the preparation of technical proposals, tenders, and quotations.

• Provide technical guidance, coaching, and mentoring to junior engineers.

• Liaise effectively with clients, suppliers, contractors, and other project stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle.

Our client is looking for a technically strong and experienced engineer who combines solid design capability with practical field experience and a collaborative, client-focused approach.

To be successful in this role, you will have:

• Demonstrated ability to communicate and build effective working relationships with clients, management, colleagues, multidisciplinary teams, suppliers, and installation contractors.

• Experience leading and managing small engineering project teams.

• Proven capability in preparing engineering documentation, including drawings, specifications, reports, scopes of work, and other technical deliverables.

• A degree qualification in Electrical Engineering, supported by extensive experience in industrial power systems.

• RPEQ registration or demonstrated progress towards achieving RPEQ.

• Ideally, at least 5 years of relevant experience in power system analysis and design.

• Full and unrestricted working rights in Australia.

The following experience and technical capabilities will be highly regarded:

• Strong knowledge and practical application of relevant Australian Standards.

• Significant experience using power system analysis software such as PTW and/or ETAP.

• Experience designing industrial high-voltage (HV) networks and associated protection systems.

• Experience in the design of earthing and lightning protection systems.

• Strong client engagement, communication, and stakeholder management skills.

• A practical, solutions-focused approach with the ability to work effectively across both engineering design and site-based environments.
