Job description for Senior Engineer/Principal Engineer (Electrical) – District Cooling at SP Group

The Senior Engineer/Principal Engineer is responsible for leading the electrical engineering design, project execution, and technical support for district cooling systems (DCS) across Singapore and regional projects. The role covers the full project lifecycle — from feasibility, design, and tendering through to construction, testing & commissioning (T&C), and handover — as well as providing operational engineering support for existing cooling plants.


What You'll Do:

Lead electrical design and engineering for Medium Voltage (MV) and Low Voltage (LV) systems, including Single-Line Diagrams (SLDs), load schedules, protection coordination studies, and technical specifications

Ensure compliance with local standards (Singapore Standard SS 638, Energy Market Authority regulations) and international standards (International Electrotechnical Commission and Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) while optimising designs for energy efficiency

Coordinate cross-functionally with Mechanical, Instrumentation and Control (I&C), and control systems teams to deliver integrated system designs

Manage end-to-end electrical project execution from design to commissioning, including engineering documents, technical drawings, and tender specifications

Liaise with clients, consultants, and contractors; lead technical meetings and manage Technical Queries (TQs), Variation Orders (VOs), and design changes

Oversee testing and commissioning activities, including Factory Acceptance Tests (FATs), system energisation, and preparation of as-built drawings, Operations and Maintenance (O&M) manuals, and test reports

Provide Operations and Maintenance (O&M) support, including troubleshooting, root cause analysis, and capital expenditure (CAPEX) lifecycle planning for electrical systems

Support tendering and business development activities, while ensuring compliance with safety regulations, Workplace Safety and Health (WSH) requirements, and mentoring junior engineers


What You'll Need:

Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering or related discipline from a university recognised by the Singapore Professional Engineers Board (PEB)

Minimum 8 years of relevant experience in electrical engineering, with at least 3 years in a senior or lead role

Proven experience in MV/LV power distribution systems for industrial or utility plants, district cooling, chiller plants, HVAC, data centres or similar critical infrastructure

Experience in regional/overseas projects (SEA, Macau, etc.) is an advantage

Strong stakeholder management skills

Strong interpersonal and communication skills

Good data management skills

Analytical, detail-oriented, and solution-focused

Proactive and able to work independently with minimal supervision

Comfortable working across multi-disciplinary teams (mechanical, electrical, I&C, project management)


What We'll Provide:

Immerse in a positive work environment that promotes/fosters teamwork and collaboration

You will receive attractive remuneration for good performance.

You will work in teams that thrive on collaboration for outstanding achievements
