Job Description

From MV switchgear to PLCs, this water treatment utility in Springs needs a sharp electrical engineer. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

This post is Springs-based, with most of your time spent at a water treatment utility. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

What your day looks like

  • Review PLC and SCADA logic for process control and alarms
  • Investigate power quality problems with a power analyser
  • Guide technicians and contractors on site during commissioning
  • Keep single line diagrams and as-built drawings up to date
  • Inspect installations and sign off compliance on completion
  • Design LV and MV reticulation to SANS 10142-1 and SANS 10142-2

You'll need

  • Strong understanding of SANS 10142 and the Electrical Installation Regulations
  • Code 08 licence and willingness to travel to sites
  • Experience with at least one power system or lighting design package
  • At least 3 years of electrical engineering work after graduating
  • BEng or BSc Eng in Electrical Engineering, or a BTech or Advanced Diploma for technologist posts

What's in it for you

  • Paid professional registration and training
  • Clear path to associate or senior engineer
  • Vehicle allowance for site work
  • Flexible hours on design days
