Electrical Engineer - Battery Energy Storage Systems

Overview

StorTera is building battery energy storage systems and ultra-rapid EV charging infrastructure as part of the global clean energy transition. We are seeking a passionate Electrical Engineer to lead the design and delivery of commercial-scale BESS and related charging projects.

What You’ll Do

You will own the electrical design lifecycle for high-impact commercial projects, working from concept to commissioning:

• Design & Engineering: Create detailed single-line diagrams, panel layouts, and wiring schematics for BESS and EV charging hubs. Specify critical equipment including inverters, transformers, switchgear, and protection relays.
• Power Systems Analysis: Conduct short-circuit, load flow, and protective device coordination studies to ensure grid stability and safety.
• Compliance & Safety: Ensure designs meet national and international standards (IEEE, UL, IEC; specifically IEEE 1547 and UL 9540).
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Collaborate with project managers, civil engineers, software developers, and sales teams to deliver seamless project execution.
• Technical Strategy: Develop scope-of-work documents, manage procurement bids, and provide on-site engineering support during construction and commissioning.
• Mentorship: Mentor junior engineers and drive continuous improvement in engineering processes.
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent practical experience).
• Experience: Ideally 5+ years in electrical engineering with a focus on commercial/utility-scale energy storage, solar PV, or power generation.
• Note on Experience: We also welcome Electrical Technicians or engineers with less than 5 years of experience who are eager to learn. Comprehensive training is provided to bridge gaps.
• Technical Stack: Proficiency in AutoCAD Electrical, ETAP, SKM PowerTools, PSS/E, or PSCAD.
• Domain Knowledge: Deep understanding of power electronics (inverters/converters), Li-ion battery technologies, and grid interconnection requirements.
• Soft Skills: A problem-solver with excellent communication skills, capable of presenting technical solutions to clients and leading in a fast-paced environment.
• Values: A genuine commitment to high engineering standards, societal impact, and environmental sustainability.
• Impact: Work on cutting-edge projects that directly shape the future of clean power.
• Growth: We invest in your future. Whether you are senior or junior, you’ll receive tailored training and clear career progression paths.
• Sustainability First: Travel green with free EV charging at our HQ, or cycle to work with secure storage and changing facilities.
• Culture: Join a supportive, innovative team where diversity is celebrated and every voice matters.
• Compensation: Competitive salary and benefits package, tailored to your experience level.
