standards.

• Remain updated on industry developments and standards, with a focus on North American

power systems (if relevant), to bring best practices into project execution.

6. Project Management

• Oversee multiple projects concurrently, ensuring the timely identification and resolution of

critical path items to meet client deadlines.

• Coordinate with project managers and team members to ensure deliverables are aligned with

client needs and expectations.

• Prepare project documentation, including reports, technical specifications, and procedures, to

support ongoing and future projects.

7. Innovation & Continuous Improvement

• Stay updated with the latest technologies, trends, and innovations in the energy and power

systems sector.

• Contribute to the continuous improvement of internal processes, including the development

of new methodologies and tools for power system planning.

8. International Collaboration & Travel

• Collaborate with international teams and clients, with the flexibility to work across multiple

time zones.

• Be prepared to travel internationally to meet with clients, attend conferences, and support

global projects as necessary.

Desired Skill Sets:

• Master's in electrical engineering (preferably power systems) or Bachelor's in electrical

engineering; advanced degree preferred.

• 8+ years of relevant professional experience.

• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to effectively interact with diverse stakeholders

and present complex technical information clearly and concisely.

• Ability to work independently and collaboratively within a team.

• Strong analytical, critical thinking and problem-solving skills providing attention to details.
