Commissioning Engineer / High Voltage Testing Specialist
Do you want to play a key role in the energy transition? We are looking for a technical expert who brings high-voltage substations to life. From physical switching operations to the most complex protection systems: you are the director of the commissioning process.
About the Role
As a (Senior) Commissioning Engineer, you operate at the intersection of primary high-voltage infrastructure and secondary control systems. You are responsible for the entire process: from testing panels to the final “Go-Live” at grid operators and energy producers. You oversee installations ranging from 1,000 to 400,000 Volts, ensuring they operate flawlessly, safely, and according to the highest standards.
Your Responsibilities
- Testing & Commissioning: Perform functional and safety tests on PAC systems and protection relays (IEDs). Test auxiliary power supplies (AC/DC) and secondary cabling/connections.
- Technical Leadership: Lead the full commissioning process (FAT, SAT, and SIT) and provide technical guidance to colleagues and external parties on-site.
- Switching Operations: Independently perform switching operations on MV, HV, and LV installations and ensure the safety of the work environment.
- Documentation & Quality: Develop test plans, manage punch lists, and ensure flawless ‘as-built’ documentation for the final handover to the client.
- Advisory Role: Act as the primary point of contact for clients and collaborate closely with engineering and project teams to solve technical challenges.
