Power Engineer careers

A Power Engineer designs, develops, and maintains electrical power systems, including generation, transmission, and distribution networks. You might work on projects involving power plants, substations, or grid management. Power Engineers focus on ensuring the reliability, efficiency, and safety of electrical power systems. You’ll perform system analysis, develop technical specifications, and oversee the implementation of power infrastructure.

Power Engineers play a crucial role in delivering consistent and safe electricity to communities and industries. You’ll need strong analytical and problem-solving skills, along with a deep understanding of electrical systems. You’ll liaise with utility companies, regulatory bodies, and project teams to ensure power systems meet all technical and regulatory standards.
