Knowledge of the offshore wind market will also be seen favorably.

    Responsibilities include:
    Support and/or lead HVDC related projects, at various stages of development including:

  • Assist clients in HVDC/HVAC technology selection;
  • Conceptual, pre-FEED and FEED level design studies and/or drawings;
  • Converter station functional/technical specifications;
  • Liaise with converter station and HVDC cable OEMs on behalf of project owner/developers to fulfil OE tasks;
  • FAT/SAT witness testing and other supports on behalf of client
  • Work seamlessly with other project disciplines such as cable engineering, environmental/permitting, GIS, geotechnical & geophysics, civil, etc.
  • Contribute to Jacobs global and North American HVDC business development, bid preparation as well as initiatives to capture new HVDC pipeline.
  • Contribute to industry thought leadership and represent Jacobs at reputable international conferences and committee meetings such as IEEE and CIGRE.
  • Please note that although this role is expected to primarily focus on HVDC, other conventional electrical and high-voltage transmission engineering tasks may also be assigned from time to time.
