Job Overview

The Renewable Energy Grid Integration Engineer will play a critical role in the successful deployment and synchronization of large-scale renewable energy projects within the Mozambican national grid. This position focuses on the technical complexities of integrating intermittent power sources, such as solar and wind, into existing utility frameworks. You will be responsible for conducting advanced simulations, assessing grid stability, and ensuring that all new energy inputs meet stringent regulatory and technical standards. This is a high-impact role that requires a deep understanding of power electronics, control systems, and electrical network modeling. As we continue to expand our footprint in Africa, this role offers unparalleled career opportunities in Mozambique for professionals seeking to lead the energy transition.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform complex power system studies including load flow, short circuit, and transient stability analysis.
• Develop and implement control strategies for inverter-based renewable energy resources.
• Collaborate with utility providers to ensure seamless integration of new power plants into the national grid.
• Lead the technical design and specification of substation equipment and grid-tie interfaces.
• Monitor real-time grid performance and troubleshoot integration issues during commissioning phases.
• Ensure all engineering designs comply with international IEC standards and local Mozambican regulations.
• Provide technical leadership during the construction and testing phases of renewable energy installations.

Required Skills

• Advanced proficiency in power system simulation software such as PSS/E, DigSILENT PowerFactory, or ETAP.
• Deep knowledge of synchronous machine theory and power electronic converter control.
• Strong understanding of grid codes and regulatory compliance for renewable energy integration.
• Exceptional analytical and mathematical modeling capabilities.
• Excellent communication skills for interacting with multi-disciplinary engineering teams and government officials.
