Project Engineer

The opportunity

Join Schneider Electric's One Solution Centre and take ownership of assigned electrical engineering packages from tender handover through to technical close out.

You will turn customer and regulatory requirements into safe, compliant and buildable LV and MV solutions, then see them progress through design, manufacture, testing, site integration and handover.

Working on critical infrastructure projects across Australia, New Zealand and the wider Pacific, you will solve day to day design challenges, maintain traceable engineering evidence and coordinate customer, supplier and factory interfaces.

Operating independently with general guidance, you will work within clear delegated authority, seek independent review where required and escalate safety critical, unresolved or high consequence matters through the Project Manager and Technical Leader pathway

What you will own



* Design the solution.

Develop coordinated SLDs, schematics, wiring information, equipment schedules, cable and termination data, data sheets, bills of material and calculation notes.



* Apply engineering judgement.

Complete or coordinate load assessments, cable sizing, voltage drop, derating, short circuit withstand, earthing inputs, protection interfaces and auxiliary supply requirements.



* Control requirements and interfaces.

Translate specifications, approved deviations, standards and utility requirements into traceable design outputs, technical queries and interface actions.



* Protect configuration integrity.

Reconcile calculations, drawings, equipment data, schedules, revisions and bills of material before issue or release to manufacture.



* Coordinate suppliers and factories.

Prepare technical requisitions, review submissions, resolve comments and close package interfaces.



* Manage risk and boundaries.

Identify assumptions, deviations and potential changes early, then escalate impacts on safety, compliance, scope, cost, schedule or quality.



* Verify and hand over.

Support ITPs, FAT, SAT, commissioning, defect close out, as built records, operation and maintenance inputs and technical handover.



* Improve how we work.

Capture lessons learned and contribute practical improvements and reusable engineering content.

Technology and projects

Work across new build, brownfield and modernisation projects involving systems up to 33 kV for data centres, utilities, transport, water, resources, healthcare, renewables, battery energy storage, industrial facilities and Defence.



* LV and MV switchgear, switchboards, ring main units and motor control interfaces.



* Kiosk and packaged substations, modular switchrooms and E Houses.



* Transformers, busway, cable systems and termination interfaces.



* Protection, control, metering, SCADA, communications and AC or DC auxiliary systems.

You do not need experience across every product family.
