High-Voltage Project Engineer

Function

As a Project Engineer, you are responsible for the technical preparation and engineering of projects within the high-voltage and energy infrastructure sector. You translate schematic diagrams and technical information into clear wiring plans that site managers and technical teams can work with.

You work closely with clients, site staff, project managers and internal colleagues. Thanks to your precision, technical insight and organisational approach, projects are well prepared and potential issues can be identified in a timely manner.

Your responsibilities will include:

• You gather technical plans, schematic diagrams and project information from the client.
• You translate schematic diagrams into detailed wiring plans in AutoCAD 2021.
• You draw up cable and plan lists and keep these accurately up to date in Excel.
• You carry out electrical calculations using Caneco.
• You determine the appropriate cable cross-sections based on technical calculations.
• You provide support in preparing quotations.
• You identify critical components required for the execution of the project.
• You place or prepare orders for items such as circuit breakers, terminals and other technical components.
• You check electrical diagrams for errors, ambiguities and inconsistencies.
• You discuss technical deviations with the client and work towards correct and executable diagrams.
• You ensure that site managers have access to clear and error-free plans.
• You visit construction sites to discuss technical plans on location.
• You identify potential execution issues and investigate ambiguities on site.
• You oversee the technical preparation from the start of the project through to execution and handover.
• You regularly align with clients, project managers and staff in the field.

This role offers a varied combination of technical drawing, electrical engineering, work preparation, planning and communication.
