I’m currently supporting a specialist power engineering consultancy that is growing its team and looking for an Electrical Engineer with strong Power Systems and PSCAD/EMT experience.

You’ll work directly with senior engineers on technically challenging projects across hyperscale data centres, behind-the-meter generation, BESS, microgrids and next-generation energy infrastructure.

What you’ll work on:

• PSCAD / EMT modelling – building, validating and running electromagnetic transient models


• Power system studies – load flow, short circuit, dynamic stability, protection coordination and RAM


• BESS & inverter-based resources – including grid-forming and grid-following controls


• Data centre & microgrid projects – large-load dynamics, islanded systems and behind-the-meter generation


• Synchronous machines & controls – AVR, governors and PSS


• Technical reports and client-facing engineering deliverables


• Emerging technologies including HVDC, SMRs and advanced power system controls

Ideal background:

• 5–8 years’ power systems experience


• Strong hands-on PSCAD / EMT modelling experience


• Experience with PSS/E, ETAP or DIgSILENT


• Solid understanding of power systems, symmetrical components and machine dynamics


• Experience with IBRs, BESS, HVDC or power electronics


• Python/MATLAB and RTDS/HIL experience would be highly desirable

This is an opportunity to join a small, highly technical team working on complex projects at the intersection of AI/data centre growth and the future power grid.
