Lead Electrical Engineer

Job Title: Lead Electrical Engineer - Marine and Offshore Projects

As a highly skilled electrical engineer, you will be responsible for providing technical leadership and expertise in the design, installation, and maintenance of electrical power systems on offshore substation (OSS) and/or floating production, storage, and offloading (FPSO) vessels. You will lead a team of skilled electrical personnel and technicians, ensuring the safe and reliable operation of electrical power systems including SCADA system in compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements. Your role will involve overseeing electrical power system design, system integration, testing, commissioning, and troubleshooting activities to support OSS and/or FPSO operations and project execution.

• Lead and manage a team of skilled electrical personnel and technicians involved in the design, installation, testing & commissioning and operation & maintenance of electrical power systems covering wide voltage range (LV, MV (< 60 kV), HV (66 kV to 275 kV)) of OSS and/or onboard FPSO vessels.
• Plan, coordinate, and oversee electrical engineering activities throughout the project lifecycle, including conceptual design, power system studies, basic (pre-FEED, FEED, Tender) & detailed engineering, construction, testing & commissioning and operation & maintenance phases.
• Develop electrical specifications, drawings, and technical documents in accordance with project requirements, class society rules, and regulatory standards (e.g., ABS, DNVGL) and local mandatory requirement.
• Review and approve electrical design deliverables, including single-line diagrams, equipment specifications, selection of equipment, schematics, equipment layouts, cable schedules, etc.
• Collaborate with other engineering disciplines, project managers, and vendors to ensure the successful integration of electrical power systems within overall project such integration of OSS in Wind Farm Project or Overall FPSO design & project objectives, etc.
• Conduct technical reviews, prepare technical bid analysis, risk assessments, and feasibility studies for electrical engineering projects, identifying opportunities for optimization and improvement.
• Ensure compliance with applicable regulatory requirements, industry standards, and best practices for electrical safety, performance, and reliability.
• Provide technical support and guidance during procurement activities, including specification of electrical equipment and materials, vendor evaluation, and bid review.
• Lead testing, pre-commissioning, commissioning, and troubleshooting activities for electrical power systems including SCADA and equipment of OSS and/or onboard FPSO vessels, ensuring adherence to employer's requirements, project specifications, quality standards and mandatory requirement.
• Monitor and analyze electrical power system performance, reliability, and efficiency, identifying opportunities for optimization, maintenance, and upgrades to support operation & maintenance OSS and/or FPSOs.

We are seeking an experienced electrical engineer who has a strong understanding of electrical power systems and is able to work effectively in a dynamic and challenging offshore environment. The ideal candidate will have excellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines effectively. They must also have strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with diverse teams, clients, contractors, and regulatory authorities.

• Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or related field. A master's degree or professional certification (e.g., PE license) is preferred.
• Proven experience (10+ years) in electrical power engineering, with a focus on marine and offshore projects, particularly OSS & FPSO vessels. Hands-on experience in dealing with high voltage equipment (AIS & GIS) of 66 kV and above will be a major advantage & preferred.
• Strong technical knowledge and expertise in electrical power engineering principles, practices, and standards, including marine electrical systems, power distribution, and hazardous area classification.
• Familiarity with class society rules (e.g., ABS, DNVGL), regulatory requirements (e.g., IMO, SOLAS), and industry standards applicable to FPSO electrical systems.
• Proficiency in electrical design software and tools, such as AutoCAD, ETAP, EPLAN, Power Factory, PSCAD or equivalent programs, for schematic design, calculations, and electrical power system analysis.
• Experience leading and managing multidisciplinary engineering teams, with demonstrated leadership abilities and effective communication skills.
• In-depth understanding of electrical safety practices, hazard analysis, and risk assessment methodologies applicable to marine and offshore environments.
• Ability to work effectively in a dynamic and challenging offshore environment, with a strong commitment to safety, quality, and environmental protection.
• Excellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines effectively.
• Strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with diverse teams, clients, contractors, and regulatory authorities.
