• Assist in the design and layout of PV and BESS systems, including single-line diagrams, cable sizing, grounding, and protection schemes
• Support in preparing technical drawings, specifications, and documentation for solar + storage projects
• Conduct site assessments and feasibility studies, including load analysis, shading studies, and energy yield/storage modeling
• Perform electrical calculations (voltage drop, short-circuit, power losses, system efficiency).
• Collaborate with project managers, civil engineers, and contractors to ensure system integration between PV, BESS, and grid infrastructure
• Support the installation, testing, and commissioning of PV and BESS systems.
• Monitor system performance and assist in troubleshooting technical issues for both PV and BESS assets
• Ensure compliance with relevant electrical codes, safety standards, and grid interconnection requirements
• Stay updated on emerging solar + storage technologies, standards, and best practices

• BSc in Electrical Engineering, Renewable Energy Engineering, or related field
• Basic knowledge of photovoltaic systems, inverters, battery technologies, and electrical equipment
