Senior Technical Lead

The Senior Technical Lead in our electrical engineering department is a pivotal role that necessitates an in-depth understanding of project management methodologies and the ability to operate within financial constraints. The successful candidate will be responsible for developing construction cost estimates, technical efforts/fee proposals for projects, and performing quality control reviews of design documentation.

Key responsibilities include leading EMI and E&B activities, offering guidance, support, and performance management, as well as participating in the development of technical proposals and providing input to the engineering budget and schedule.

To excel in this role, applicants should possess a Master of Engineering degree in an appropriate discipline from an accredited college or university, along with a Chartered Engineer (CEng) or Professional Engineer (PE) license, or equivalent, and a minimum of 12 years of experience.

A strong background in design development, risk mitigation, value engineering, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and electromagnetic interference (EMI) is essential, as is the ability to present strategies effectively to stakeholders and non-technical leads.

• Develops construction cost estimates and estimates of technical efforts/ fee proposal for projects
• Works within the financial and programme constraints and considers financial implications in producing design options
• Performs quality control review of design documentation, calculations and drawing
• Leads EMI and E&B activities, offering guidance, support, and performance management
• Participates in development of technical proposals
• Provides input to the development of engineering budget and schedule to meet requirements

• Master of Engineering degree (or equivalent education) in an appropriate engineering discipline from an accredited college or university
• Chartered Engineer (CEng), or Professional Engineer (PE) license or equivalent in the relevant field from any global organization
• 12+ Years of experience

The ideal candidate will be able to contribute to design development, design risk and mitigation, and value engineering with a focus on EMC and EMI, provide expert technical guidance, ensure adherence to earthing and bonding standards throughout the design process, and develop and deliver Earthing (Grounding) and Bonding Control Strategy reports.

Additionally, they will produce detailed design documentation, participate in interdisciplinary design team meetings, coordinate with sub-consultants and equipment suppliers, review and verify design drawings, prepare technical reports, assess project specifications for construction compliance, and provide input to E&B strategy and conduct power quality compatibility assessments.

The Senior Technical Lead will work closely with design engineers to advise on EMC test specifications, production of test procedures and reports as required, and advise appropriate EMC solutions through design analysis to identify required control techniques and good design practice.
