Lead Electrical Engineer

We are seeking an experienced Lead Electrical Engineer to join our engineering team for ongoing offshore (FPSO/Platform) and onshore facility projects. The ideal candidate will have a strong technical background in power system design, proven team leadership skills, and the ability to deliver high-quality electrical engineering solutions across complex, multidisciplinary projects.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and coordinate all aspects of electrical engineering detailed design for Offshore (FPSO/Platforms) and Onshore facilities, ensuring compliance with project specifications, industry standards, and client expectations.
• Take full ownership of the electrical system design, including studies, specifications, design reviews, and related services covering MV (11kV) and LV (690/400V) systems - such as switchgear, transformers, Power Management Systems (PMS), MV VFDs, and electrical distribution networks.
• Supervise and guide a team of Electrical Engineers responsible for design calculations, equipment selection, and package engineering (e.g., switchgear, transformers, UPS systems, and distribution boards).
• Provide technical support to multidisciplinary teams, including Mechanical, Process, and Instrumentation disciplines, ensuring integrated and optimized design solutions.
• Oversee a team of Designers and Drafters to develop high-quality 2D and 3D deliverables - including Single Line Diagrams (SLDs), block diagrams, interconnection diagrams, layouts, and cable routing drawings.
• Conduct and review electrical load flow, short circuit, and protection coordination studies to ensure system reliability and safety.
• Prepare technical documentation, equipment datasheets, and engineering reports as required for project execution and client submission.
• Participate in design reviews, HAZOP/HAZID sessions, and ensure timely resolution of all electrical design issues during engineering, procurement, and construction phases.
• Provide mentorship, technical guidance, and performance feedback to junior engineers and designers, fostering continuous professional development within the team.
• Ensure that all electrical design activities adhere to quality standards, project schedules, and safety requirements, while maintaining close coordination with other engineering disciplines.

Job Requirements

• Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering from a recognized university.
• Minimum 20 years of relevant experience in electrical design for Offshore (FPSO/Platform) and/or Onshore power and distribution systems, including at least 5 years in a Lead Engineer role.
• Proven experience managing full-cycle electrical engineering deliverables for large-scale offshore or onshore projects, from concept through detailed design and execution.
• Strong familiarity with international codes and standards such as IEC, BSI, API, and other relevant global specifications.
• Solid understanding of electrical system analysis, compliance studies, and design assessments.
• Proficiency in 2D/3D design tools and relevant engineering software for electrical system design and modelling.
• Excellent communication, leadership, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively across multicultural teams and complex project environments.
• Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and a commitment to engineering excellence and continuous improvement
