Senior Design Manager – Electrical Power Systems

General DescriptionAs an Electrical Design Expert, you will play a crucial role in the successful design and engineering of the Electrical Power Systems (EPS) and equipment for Hydro Power Projects. Your responsibilities will encompass a wide range of tasks, starting from single-line diagram creation to ensuring compliance with standards and regulations for systems up to 500kV. You will collaborate with the customer and cross-functional teams to accelerate project timelines while maintaining the highest quality standards. You will also need to mentor junior engineers and lead initiatives focused on continuous process improvement.JOB RESPONSIBILITIES AND TASKSElectrical Design and Engineering: Develop single-line diagrams, perform load flow analysis, and conduct short-circuit calculations/studies. Both basic and detailed engineering of Electrical Power Systems for Hydro Power Projects, encompassing Low and Medium-voltage Switchgear, DC Systems, Low and medium-voltage busducts and cabling system, Power and Distribution Transformers (Oil / Dry type), Reactors, Rectifier Transformers and Static Frequency Converts (SFC), Generator Circuit Breakers (GCB), EHV Substations and associated Switchyard equipment, Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS), EHV XLPE Cabling system, Overhead Transmission lines, Public Address and Communcation System, Grounding systems, and Illumination.Conduct equipment sizing, e.g., Current and Voltage Transformers (CT/VT), Neutral Grounding Transformers, DG sets, Aux. Transformers, Reactors, etc., ensuring alignment with overall technical project requirements.Engineering Excellence: In-depth technical knowledge of Electrical Balance of Plant (EBoP) packages. Clarify and communicate design details with customers, addressing any queries or concerns. Excellent equipment sizing and selection skills. Utilize engineering software and equipment sizing tools like ETAP and ensure a "first-time-right" approach. Provide technical support to the Procurement and Project Management teams during technical negotiations.Customer Focus: Prioritize customer satisfaction and maintain a strong focus on quality. Troubleshooting skills: Demonstrate creative problem-solving skills. Offer technical solutions to project sites during erection, commissioning, and warranty periods.Cross-functional and Supplier collaboration: Interface with cross-functional teams, including procurement, quality control, and erection & commissioning, and the suppliers to ensure seamless integration of engineering activities within defined time limits and to expedite project progress.Continuous Improvement: Collaborate with vendors, fostering the development of alternate designs and innovative solutions. Drive continuous improvement efforts in engineering processes and actively seek opportunities for design optimizations without compromising contractual or project requirements.Independent Project Handling: Take ownership of the design for Electrical systems and equipment within assigned Hydro Power Projects, ensuring they meet project-specific requirements. Mentorship: Provide guidance and mentorship to junior design engineers, fostering their professional growth and development.Timely Delivery: Monitor and enforce adherence to design schedules, ensuring on-time delivery (OTD) of engineering systems while prioritizing customer needs.Adherence to standards and Quality Assurance: Ensure that the design and engineering of packages meet guaranteed and contractual requirements while adhering to relevant industry standards, regulations, policies, and procedures.QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS Qualification: BE/ BTech in Electrical Engineering. Experience: 15- 20 years Skills and Abilities: Proficiency in using engineering software and tools, like ETAP. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills. Excellent communication and teamwork abilities. Technical Project management skills. Knowledge of national and international standards and regulations. Leadership and mentorship capabilities.
