Senior Power System Secondary Engineer

Design Review & VerificationLead the review and
verification of all secondary design deliverables — including Single Line
Diagrams (SLDs), Protection & Metering Diagrams (PMDs), Block Logic Diagrams (BLDs), AC/DC schematics, and LV System Design Documents — for HV substations
and renewable plants.Verify protection and
control philosophies, including relay settings, selectivity analyses, and
coordination studies (short-circuit calculations, CT/VT sizing) prepared by consultants and EPC contractors.Review and approve interlocking schemes, bay-level logic, and station-level automation across
switchgear, transformers, feeders, and renewable energy plant interfaces.Substation Automation & SCADAApprove substation automation and SCADA architectures, ensuring correct implementation of IED
logic, signal lists, and interlocking schemes at bay and station levels.Oversee the integration
and configuration of communication protocols — IEC 61850 (GOOSE/SV/MMS), IEC 60870-5-104, and DNP3 — governing data flow between Plant Power Controllers
(PPC/EMS), substations, and utility control centers.Review IED configurations, substation HMI displays, and historian / data management architectures for completeness and compliance.Telecommunications & CybersecurityReview and validate
communication and telecommunication architectures, including managed network design (VLANs, PRP/HSR redundancy), cybersecurity policies (IEC 62351 / NERC-CIP
aligned), and tele-protection performance requirements.Ensure robust cyber-physical security practices are embedded throughout the secondary system design lifecycle.​Standards, Compliance & Grid Code AdherenceEnsure strict adherence to international standards and grid codes (IEC, IEEE/ANSI) by performing
technical audits and vetting technical submissions to Transmission / Distribution System Operators (TSO/DSO).Manage technical interfaces and coordinate between EPC contractors, engineering consultants,
OEMs, and the grid operator to ensure a coherent and optimized secondary
systems design.RequirementsEducationBachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, or a closely related field.Professional Engineering registration (PE / CEng or equivalent) is an advantage.Experience8+ years of engineering experience with a demonstrable focus on substation secondary systems
design and delivery.Significant experience in a developer, owner’s engineer, or utility role with direct responsibility for managing
and challenging EPC contractor deliverables.Proven track record on grid-connected utility-scale renewable energy projects (Solar PV, Wind) and/or Battery Energy Storage
Systems (BESS).Experience working across the full project lifecycle from FEED and detailed design through to FAT, SAT, and commercial operation.
