Collaborate with sales, operations, and technical teams to ensure alignment of design intent with commercial and operational objectives. Provide field-based technical support during system installation, commissioning, and troubleshooting phases. Resolve complex technical issues alongside field engineers, identifying root causes and recommending sustainable solutions. Maintain design records, revision histories, and project archives in accordance with engineering and quality management standards. Continuously improve design methodologies, drawing libraries, and component standards to enhance project delivery. Ensure compliance with relevant safety codes, electrical regulations, and industry best practices. Essential Requirements: Electrical engineering qualification (BEng, or equivalent). Minimum of 5 years experience in electrical or automation system design within industrial or commercial sectors. Proven proficiency in CAD tools (e.g., EPLAN, AutoCAD Electrical) for producing technical drawings and schematics. Solid understanding of electrical design principles, standards (e.g., SANS, IEC), and protection methodologies. Practical working knowledge of power and automation systems. Ability to read, interpret, and create technical documentation and wiring diagrams. Strong problem-solving skills with a structured and analytical approach to technical challenges. Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
