Ready to power the future of energy storage?

Join us as a Grid Engineer – Grid Optimisation (BESS) and play a key role in shaping how energy storage integrates into power systems across global markets.

If you thrive in a dynamic, innovative, and collaborative environment and are motivated by accelerating the deployment of clean energy technologies, we'd love to hear from you.

Desirable skills:

• Expertise in grid connection studies (load flow, short circuit, harmonics, stability).
• Strong knowledge of TSO/DSO requirements, grid codes, and protection principles.
• Proficiency with power system analysis tools (e.g., DIgSILENT, PSSE).
• Ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to diverse stakeholders.
• Analytical capability and digital/AI literacy to improve workflows and insights.
• Excellent spoken and written English, and experience working in international or multi-jurisdiction environments is an advantage.
