Electrical Engineer

About the role

You will own the complete electrical design workflow for industrial projects, translating client requirements into safe and compliant power distribution systems. You will partner with mechanical and civil disciplines to integrate electrical solutions into holistic facility designs. You will exercise judgment in code interpretation to develop layouts that meet both regulatory standards and client objectives. You will lead documentation efforts to produce clear deliverables that support construction and procurement activities. You will mentor junior staff by providing technical guidance and constructive review of their engineering work. You will communicate design intent effectively with clients to align technical solutions with project goals. You will uphold BSI's culture of service by demonstrating reliability, responsiveness, and professionalism on every engagement. You will contribute to continuous improvement by applying lessons learned to enhance team processes and design quality.

Key facts

What you'll do

Perform detailed load calculations and select appropriate equipment to size feeders, switchgear, and protective devices.

Develop single-line diagrams that illustrate electrical system topology and clearly represent power flow for various industrial applications.
