Electrical Engineer - Electrification Systems

Brno

FULL TIME

October 17, 2024

Electrification is a key technology for decarbonization, and Lummus provides electrification solutions to enable our clients to achieve their energy transition goals. Process electrification will require redesign of heat transfer equipment from fossil fuel firing to electrified heating, safe supply of large amounts of renewable power from the grid to equipment interface points and conversion from steam-turbine to electric drivers. For this reason, grid connected medium-high voltage MW scale systems such as resistive electric-loads (heaters) and motor driven compressors will be specified and utilized to replace fossil-based loads.

The Role

This position will also be responsible for developing protection strategy, coordinating procurement and bidding support for major equipment, acting as on-site commissioning support, developing punch lists, and testing performance plans. Experience with high power systems ranging from 200 k W to 200 MW, or other inverter-based systems is preferable. Although not essential, experience in the refining and petrochemical industry is valuable as well.

Support the electrical design and analysis of power systems, substation & power distribution systems & grounding systems.
Conduct preliminary studies for grounding, lightning protection, arc flash hazard, backup station service sizing, and other studies required for grid connection.
