Our client HybriX Energy is a local and independent developer of grid-scale battery energy storage (BESS) projects, actively engaged in the development, construction, and operations of large-scale battery projects, and strongly committed to supporting the transition to a sustainable energy future.

To continue its ambitious expansion, HybriX Energy is looking for a skilled and motivated Electrical Engineer – Battery Storage Projects to join their enthusiastic and dynamic team, passionate about energy storage and dedicated to making a positive impact on the environment.

As an Electrical Engineer – Battery Storage Projects, you will have ultimate responsibility for the design, implementation, and optimization of electrical systems in large-scale battery projects, ensuring they meet all technical, safety, and performance requirements. You will ensure that battery assets and their grid connections are efficiently designed, procured, constructed, and installed. Additionally, you will oversee the technical aspects of the projects, providing expertise and guidance throughout all phases of grid-scale battery storage development.

As an Electrical Engineer – Battery Storage Projects, you will have the following key responsibilities:

Engineering:

• Perform comprehensive electrical engineering analyses: oversee simulations, validate electrical designs, and test the performance of electrical systems to ensure reliability and efficiency
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams: work closely with the Project Manager, civil engineers, and contractors to achieve seamless integration of electrical systems into overall project designs
• Resolve technical challenges: identify, troubleshoot, and solve complex issues related to electrical systems during the design, installation, and operation phases
• Prepare and maintain technical documentation: develop detailed design specifications, engineering reports, and operational manuals to support project lifecycle requirements
• Manage key interfaces: act as the primary point of contact for suppliers, and coordinate effectively with Elia to ensure successful grid integration and compliance
• Lead SCADA integration efforts: oversee the design and implementation of SCADA systems to enable effective monitoring and control of battery assets
• Ensure compliance: maintain strict adherence to electrical safety standards, regulations, and industry best practices at every project stage

Execution:

• Hands-on site involvement: regularly visit project sites to oversee and monitor all electrical and battery-related aspects of the construction process, ensuring quality and compliance with project requirements
• Active participation in installation and commissioning: play a key role in the installation, testing, and commissioning of electrical equipment, including Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT), to verify performance and functionality
• Post-commissioning operations: support the operation and performance monitoring of battery systems after installation and commissioning, ensuring their reliability and efficiency in real-world conditions

In addition, you will take ownership of critical responsibilities throughout the project lifecycle, including:

• Proactive project oversight: monitor and manage key project elements such as budget, quality, timelines, and risk mitigation to ensure smooth execution and delivery
• Technical compliance: guarantee adherence to industry standards, grid requirements, and safety regulations, ensuring all technical solutions meet or exceed project specifications
• Staying ahead of technological advancements: continuously research and integrate the latest developments in electrical engineering and energy storage solutions to enhance project performance
• Stakeholder engagement and communication: maintain clear, proactive communication with all involved stakeholders, including engineering firms, BESS suppliers, owner engineers, EPC contractors, installers, battery manufacturers, and maintenance teams, ensuring alignment and collaboration throughout each project phase
