Renewables Engineering Lead

Renewables Engineering Lead (BESS, PV + Plant Master Controller)If you’re a senior engineer who wants real ownership, technical authority, and influence across landmark hybrid renewable projects in the Middle East, this role deserves your attention.You’ll lead the engineering that makes Solar PV, BESS, and grid systems work together in the field. This is not a document-production job. You’ll be responsible for both the physical system integration and the control strategies that drive plant performance.What You Want as a CandidateClear technical responsibilityDirect interaction with EPC leadershipAuthority to influence design decisionsInvolvement from concept through commissioningReal hybrid-plant challenges, not repetitive package workA company that prioritises engineering quality over shortcutsThis role delivers exactly that.What You’ll LeadFull engineering of utility-scale BESS systems from concept design to commissioning supportBattery, inverter, and MV/HV integration design with ownership of constructability and qualityPlant Master Controller philosophies that define plant behaviour under all grid conditionsPMC integration with SCADA, EMS, BMS, and substation automation systemsSystem modelling and studies using MATLAB Simulink, ETAP, or similar toolsTechnical evaluations, tender support, and EPC-level design documentationCoordination of deliverables across electrical, civil, instrumentation, and controls teamsOn-site support during FAT, SAT, testing, and commissioning stagesRoot-cause analysis and performance optimisation across hybrid systemsMentoring junior engineers and setting engineering standardsWhat You Bring8–12 years in EPC renewable or hybrid-plant engineeringStrong hands-on experience with BESS, Solar PV, inverter control, and hybrid operationProven experience designing or integrating PMCs or advanced SCADA/EMS systemsProficiency in MATLAB Simulink, ETAP, or equivalent modelling toolsStrong understanding of IEC 61850, DNP3, Modbus, OPC, and communication architecturesExperience working with Middle Eastern utilities and grid-code requirementsA mindset focused on doing the job properly, not cutting cornersWhat Makes This Role Worth ItYou become the engineering lead on major hybrid renewable projectsYou influence decisions, not just follow themYou work with technically strong teams who value quality and deliveryYou gain exposure to the latest hybrid-plant and BESS technologiesLong-term career stability within a recognised EPCCompetitive compensation and clear progressionWhy You’ll ApplyYou’re tired of roles where:Engineering is done in silosYou never see your designs reach commissioningDecisions are made for youControl systems, BESS design, and grid integration are scattered across different teams
