Radio Frequency Interference studies and Electromagnetic Compatibility studies. Power Line Carrier Interference studies and filters. Design of AC, DC, and High Frequency harmonic filters and screening. Calculations of filter performance and rating. Creation of project-specific equipment specifications for filter reactors/capacitors/resistors. Technical responsibility in areas of expertise. Coordinate the engineering tasks to meet the project/tender requirement. Adherence to company policies, quality procedures and work instructions ( through trainings, technical reviews). Comply with the company Values Charter. Desired additional skills  Insulation Coordination Studies : Determination (by simulation) of temporary and transient overvoltage stresses on equipment and surge arrester energy ratings. Losses : Calculation of overall project losses and reporting to the client. Equipment Specification : Creation of project-specific, high economic value, equipment specifications for equipment such as power transformers, instrument transformers, reactors, capacitors, surge arresters etc. Reliability and Availability Studies : Creation of overall reliability and availability models for projects and reporting to the client. Development and Industrialisation: Develop and industrialise solutions tools and processes associated with the engineering activities identified above. Be actively involved in new developments in HVDC technologies, implementing control and protection solutions and creating / delivering new analysis techniques and system study tools in order to provide optimized system study solutions. Process Improvement: Review and record design processes and develop new or improved processes. Support and mentor other engineers to increase the team’s technical knowledge and competence. Quality Take part in the development and deployment of engineering processes, working methods and best practices within the Department. Enforce engineering discipline and set processes across all work tasks and adhereance to company policies, quality procedures and work instructions ( through trainings, technical reviews). Report or resolve any non-conformances in a timely manner. Health and Safety Identify and evaluate EHS risks in own area and implement practical measures. Set the example by demonstrating the proper acts and actively observe work conditions and behaviours, giving constructive feedback and celebrating EHS effective prevention. Actively participate in defining corrective actions when work is unsafe or when an uncontrolled risk is observed. Routinely observe routines and behaviours of others and provide immediate feedback regarding unsafe behaviour and celebrates achievements or safe behaviours. Actively and routinely promote the identification of hazards and near misses to their team/s.
