  The successful candidate shall demonstrate related experience and technical knowledge in the field of electrical high-voltage engineering, with emphasis on HVDC, through past experience with consulting engineering firms, developers and/or direct exposure to OEMs. Prior knowledge of electrical design/studies, functional/technical specifications, and/or FAT/SAT commissioning related to HVDC systems is preferred. Knowledge of the offshore wind market will also be seen favorably.

  Responsibilities include:

  Support and/or lead HVDC related projects, at various stages of development including:

  Assist clients in HVDC/HVAC technology selection;

  Contribute to Jacobs global and North American HVDC business development, bid preparation as well as initiatives to capture new HVDC pipeline.

  Contribute to industry thought leadership and represent Jacobs at reputable international conferences and committee meetings such as IEEE and CIGRE.

  Please note that although this role is expected to primarily focus on HVDC, other conventional electrical and high-voltage transmission engineering tasks may also be assigned from time to time.
