As an Engineer you are technically responsible for the engineering of challenging high voltage projects. You coordinate with the stakeholders on all technical aspects of the work and then provide an executable plan. You use your technical insight to make an effective translation of functional design into executable project plans. You also take care of the technical documentation and implementation designs. You enjoy working according to the Systems Engineering SE methodology. You feel responsible so that you proactively feed back technical issues to both our internal and external client(s). With this you ensure that the installations of our clients are made reliable and future-proof. This is how you contribute to the energy of today and tomorrow.

A selection of your future activities:

• You are responsible for a wide range of secondary and tertiary engineering activities (work packages).
• You support the lead engineer in the successive phases of the project from basic design in the preparatory phase, final and implementation designs and finally the delivery of a project. In addition, you design and verify integrated solutions based on customer specifications, technical standards and guidelines, and laws and regulations.
• Proactive progress monitoring, solving bottlenecks, feedback findings.
• Perform quality checks, transfer project documentation.

As a Commissioning Engineer, you are the one who gives final approval and energizes the systems. A responsible and important role! You are the final safety net and responsible for the approved and ready-to-use delivery of our high voltage projects.
Starting from the design, you organize the entire testing process, zooming in on aspects such as safety, quality and functionality of the systems.

– Preparing and documenting inspection and test reports;
– The independent safeguarding, testing and commissioning of electrical installations, panels and control cabinets;
– Performing inspection, verification and testing activities (FAT, SAT and SIT) in the field of primary, secondary and tertiary systems, in accordance with requirements, existing standards and guidelines;
– Managing the team of test engineers and commissioners;
– The planning and progress of the testing process and quality of the test object.

As an electrician, no day is the same. You can see your scheduled tasks on your own tablet. You leave from home in your own company van to the location in your work area. One day, you might be resolving a malfunction with an apprentice at a customer's place, or you might be out to repair a cable damaged by excavation. On another day, you might oversee an installation project from start to finish, such as replacing an old medium-voltage space with a new one. As an experienced technician, you are also involved in our low and medium voltage networks.
In summary, your tasks involve installing, maintaining, and troubleshooting issues in low and medium voltage networks and transformer stations.

As a High Voltage Secondary Engineer you are substantively involved in several projects. You are part of highly experienced integrated project teams with whom you have regular consultations. In addition, you translate customer requirements and wishes into project-specific design requirements together with the Senior Lead Engineer. You manage secondary and/or tertiary design teams for the purpose of sizing installations, performing the necessary calculations and creating designs. You manage quality control, identify technical bottlenecks and initiate technical improvements. You have an active, positively involved role in reviewing and assessing the (final) presentations of the designs drawn up by team members. You communicate with clients to explain designs and clarify specifications. You have contact with subcontractors and suppliers at home and abroad. You are one of the knowledge carriers within the Energy Team in the field of engineering of Secondary and/or Tertiary engineering of high voltage and medium voltage installations.
