Electrical Design Engineer - Renewables - To $110 + Super

Are you an Electrical (Building Services, or Renewable Energy) Design Engineer in Sydney, Melbourne or Canberra?

Like to work for one of the true pioneers of green building design; where you can make a genuine impact on helping Australia reach its Net Zero targets?

Established a decade ago they operate across Australia and Europe and specialise in Energy (Energy Audits, Efficiency, Road Maps, M&V, Strategy, Reporting and Management), NABERS, Building Optimisation and Building Tuning, Solar PV, BESS Electric Vehicle Infrastructure to broader ESD. They have helped revise NABERS, and have been instrumental in guiding local governments on policy and legislation, with a holistic energy focus.

Due to growth they are looking for an Electrical Engineer (could be Engineer to Senior Engineer level) to join the team and lead out on the practical, on-the-ground side of building electrification and decarbonisation.

This isn't a generic building services role, but rather an opportunity to specialise in the technology that's actually driving the shift away from fossil-fuelled buildings.

What you'll be working on:

  1. EV Charger Infrastructure - Designing and delivering EV charging solutions within commercial, industrial, educational and residential buildings.
  2. Electrification & Decarbonisation - leading the switch from gas boilers to electric heating systems in buildings.
  3. PV Systems - Both roof-mount and ground-mount solar installations.
  4. BESS for the Built Environment - Designing and Integrating Battery energy storage systems into buildings.
  5. Back-up Generation & Load Management - Generation and load management systems for building resilience.

What's in it for you

  • Direct line of sight from your design to real kilowatt-hours saved and NABERS stars earned.
  • Variety: one week an audit, the next a solar commissioning, the next a due-diligence review.
  • Learn from (and contribute to) a team that has been doing this work at a high level for over a decade.
  • Genuine influence in a small firm where your recommendations become client strategy.
  • Up to $110K + Super and hybrid working,
  • Opportunity to work for a dedicated ESD and Energy Efficiency Consultancy through and through; rather than it being a bolt on service within a multi-disciplinary firm.

Requirements

  • Electrical engineering degree and eligibility for Chartered status or equivalent Australian registration.
  • Proven track record designing solar PV and electrical systems to AS/NZS 3000 and 4777.
  • Hands-on experience with NABERS, energy audits or building-optimisation projects that produced measured savings.
  • Ability to produce clear, defensible calculations and reports that clients and contractors can act on immediately
  • Previous experience or knowledge of BESS and EV infrastructure
  • Comfortable in a client facing role

This is a great opportunity to partner directly with end users or building owners to cut carbon emissions, cut energy costs, and promote a lower-carbon future and circular economy in Australia.

If you have most of the required experience and this role is of interest, please forward your resume, drop me an email or connect with me on LinkedIn and we can go from there.
