Our Customer:

A national engineering consultancy is seeking a Lead Power Systems Engineer to drive the technical delivery of its cutting-edge modular energy system — a first-of-its-kind, AI-enabled microgrid technology used in hybrid and off-grid applications.

The Opportunity: 

Reporting to the General Manager, this is a key technical leadership role within a high-performing team that is designing and delivering complex, scalable clean-energy systems. You’ll lead the end-to-end development of advanced power systems — including microgrid, battery storage, and hybrid diesel-renewable applications — for high-profile industrial clients.

You’ll play a central role in both engineering delivery and team leadership, while also contributing to client solutions and strategic direction across national rollout programs.

• Lead system design, engineering calculations, and product development across microgrid and hybrid systems
• Guide commissioning, FAT/SAT, and on-site delivery, supported by a growing project and engineering team
• Provide technical direction across electrical, controls, and systems engineering efforts
• Work closely with clients to shape energy solutions and support proposal development
• Collaborate with internal teams across mechanical, software, and control systems to refine product iterations
• Balance hands-on engineering with leadership, mentoring, and influencing technical priorities
• Contribute to the ongoing improvement and commercial scalability of a high-potential clean energy product

About You:

We’re looking for a technically strong and hands-on power systems engineer who can lead, influence, and problem-solve in a fast-paced, high-growth environment. You’ll be just as comfortable in the detail as you are engaging clients or mentoring junior engineers.
You will have:

• A degree in Electrical Engineering (or related field)
• Strong experience in power systems design — ideally including solar, BESS, hybrid or off-grid applications
• Proven hands-on commissioning and FAT/SAT experience in field environments
• The ability to navigate ambiguity, prioritise effectively, and deliver under pressure
• Strong communication skills with the ability to work across technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Leadership capability and a desire to build and mentor a growing team

Some interstate travel to regional sites (QLD/SA/NT) will be required, and additional allowances are offered for on-site work.
