• Define technical specifications and procurement requirements for major electrical equipment packages including GIS switchgear, HVDC converter systems, transformers, reactors, HV/MV/LV switchboards, UPS systems, VFDs, protection systems, and automation systems.

• Lead technical bid evaluations (TBE), vendor design reviews, FAT/SAT activities, and technical clarifications for electrical equipment packages.

• Coordinate multidisciplinary integration across electrical, control, telecom, mechanical,HVAC, safety, and structural disciplines to ensure successful platform integration.

• Support electrical safety engineering activities including hazardous areaconsiderations, arc flash assessments, protection coordination, functional safety interfaces, and electrical risk assessments.

• Ensure compliance with offshore and utility standards including IEC, IEEE, DNV,NORSOK, ENA, TenneT specifications, and applicable offshore grid connection requirements.

• Support construction, commissioning, energization, and offshore hook-up activities including troubleshooting, system verification, and performance validation.

• Participate in design reviews, HAZID/HAZOP workshops, constructability reviews, operability assessments, and lessons learned processes throughout project execution.

• Liaise with Certified Verification Agents (DNV, BV etc)and Designer to close all outstanding issues.
