  4. Documentation and Reporting:
    1. Validate input data to ensure accuracy and reliability in simulation results.
    2. Prepare comprehensive reports detailing simulation results, recommendations, and design considerations.
    3. Review models and reports produced by the team.
    4. Maintain accurate and up-to-date documentation related to power system simulations and design support activities.
    5. Promote and participate in proper management processes.
  5. Continuous Professional Development:
    1. Stay abreast of industry trends, best practices, and emerging technologies.
    2. Contribute to the continuous improvement of simulation methodologies and tools within the power systems team.
    3. Contribute to expanding the simulation capabilities of the team to meet demand.
Requirements
  1. Bachelor's or Master's degree in Power Engineering.
  2. Proven experience in power systems engineering, preferably within the data centre industry.
  3. Proficiency in simulation software, particularly ETAP (preferred), DigSilent, or SKM.
  4. Experience with Load Flow, Short Circuit Analysis, Protection Coordination, Arc Flash, Harmonic Studies, and Underground Cable Sizing.
  5. Experience in performing Transient Stability Studies is desirable.
  6. Experience in performing Earthing Studies is desirable.
  7. Demonstrate a deep understanding of the models of main electrical machines, including but not limited to generators, transformers, motors, and UPS.
  8. Experience in both LV and MV systems, ideally HV up to 132 kV.
  9. Strong knowledge of power systems control and SCADA systems.
  10. Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.
  11. Effective communication and collaboration abilities.
Benefits

RED offers a variety of benefits, including but not limited to:

  1. 23 days annual leave rising to 28 days annual leave over 5 years' service.
