Sr. Electrical Design Engineer (US Projects)

Position Summary
We are seeking a dynamic and technically proficient Senior Solar PV & BESS Design Engineer to join our operations in India. In this role, you will act as a key technical bridge, collaborating with US-based developers, EPC contractors, and engineering firms to deliver top-tier electrical and physical design packages for utility-scale and C&I solar photovoltaic and battery energy storage systems across the United States.

**Key Responsibilities
Global Project Execution:** Lead the end-to-end design of US-based solar PV and BESS projects from conceptual stages to Issued-for-Construction (IFC) drawing packages.
Electrical & System Design: Design AC/DC collection systems, inverter stations, medium-voltage (MV) transformers, switchgear, and BESS layout configurations compliant with US codes.
Engineering Calculations: Perform accurate calculations for cable ampacity, voltage drop, short-circuit studies, conduit fill, and dc/ac ratio optimizations.
BESS Integration Support: Assist in designing storage architectures, auxiliary power layouts, fire safety compliance, and thermal management strategies aligned with US standards (UL 9540, NFPA 855).
CAD Drafting & Review: Prepare and oversee detailed drawing packages using AutoCAD, including single-line diagrams (SLDs), three-line diagrams, site plans, and grounding details.
US Code Compliance: Ensure all deliverables strictly adhere to the National Electrical Code (NEC), IEEE standards, and specific regional US utility interconnection requirements.
Cross-Border Collaboration: Participate in client calls, align with US-based stakeholders on design changes, incorporate feedback efficiently, and maintain high standards of quality control (QA/QC) before submittal.
