About the Role

As the HV Site Engineer, you will lead the safe and effective on-site delivery of high voltage (HV) infrastructure across AirTrunk projects, ensuring installations meet approved designs, quality requirements, programme commitments, and operational needs. You will coordinate contractors, consultants, network service providers, and internal teams through construction, testing, energisation, commissioning, and handover, while providing practical site-based engineering solutions to HV issues with a strong focus on safety, constructability, reliability, and continuity of operations.

Responsibilities

  • Manage the on-site delivery of HV networks across new and existing AirTrunk sites, ensuring work is completed safely and in accordance with approved designs, applicable codes, standards, and AirTrunk requirements.
  • Oversee the installation of HV equipment and systems, including switchgear, transformers, protection relays, SCADA, earthing, cabling, and DC systems.
  • Review issued-for-construction drawings, specifications, method statements, inspection and test plans, safe work method statements, and vendor documentation before site execution.
  • Supervise and collaborate with principal contractors, specialist subcontractors, and suppliers to achieve safe, practical, and high-quality outcomes on time and within budget.
  • Complete site inspections, monitor workmanship and quality records, and drive the timely resolution of non-conformances, defects, and punch-list items.
  • Coordinate HV access, isolations, permits, and switching activities with authorised personnel, Site Specialists, and Operations teams.
  • Act as the site technical interface between designers, consultants, contractors, vendors, network service providers, and AirTrunk stakeholders.
  • Support testing, energisation, and commissioning activities, including witnessing tests, reviewing results, and confirming that systems are ready for safe operation.
  • Prepare and review methods of procedure, switching plans, and other site execution documents in conjunction with the Site Specialist and commissioning teams.
  • Resolve site queries, constructability issues, clashes, and design discrepancies through timely technical clarification and controlled change processes.
  • Support the investigation and resolution of HV incidents, standing issues, and emerging technical risks that fall outside local Operations capability.
  • Identify opportunities to improve safety, programme, cost, quality, and system performance, and share lessons learned across projects.
  • Ensure complete project handover, including as-built drawings, test records, operation and maintenance manuals, asset information, training, and outstanding-action close-out.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline.
  • Minimum five years of experience in HV construction, site engineering, or project delivery, preferably within data centres, critical infrastructure, utilities, or large-scale industrial projects.
  • Strong practical knowledge of HV equipment and installations, including switchgear, transformers, protection systems, SCADA, earthing, cabling, and auxiliary DC systems.
  • Working knowledge of applicable Australian electrical standards, network service provider requirements, workplace health and safety obligations, and HV safe systems of work.
  • Demonstrated ability to interpret single-line diagrams, schematics, layouts, specifications, and issued-for-construction documentation.
  • Experience reviewing method statements, safe work method statements, inspection and test plans, test documentation, and contractor quality records.
  • Sound understanding of HV installation, testing, protection, energisation, commissioning, and operational handover requirements.
  • Experience supervising contractors and coordinating multiple work fronts within a live construction environment.
  • Strong commitment to electrical safety, permit-to-work controls, risk management, and high-quality site execution.
  • Ability to identify and resolve technical, constructability, and interface issues while maintaining programme and operational priorities.
  • Experience managing RFIs, non-conformances, defects, punch lists, red-line mark-ups, and as-built documentation.
  • Competency with common engineering and document-control tools; familiarity with AutoCAD, PowerFactory, ETAP, or similar applications is advantageous.
  • Effective communication and stakeholder-management skills, with the confidence to coordinate contractors, consultants, authorities, and multidisciplinary internal teams.
  • Strong analytical, organisational, and problem-solving skills with close attention to detail.
  • A collaborative, accountable, and delivery-focused approach, with the ability to work independently in a fast-paced site environment.
  • Willingness to travel to AirTrunk project sites as required.
