Senior Commissioning Engineer

We are looking for a hands‑on Field Tester to lead the physical setup and execution of high‑voltage tests within electrical substations. You will be responsible for transforming a specialized, proprietary mobile laboratory (Resonant Test System) into a fully functional testing circuit. This role requires a blend of mechanical aptitude (rigging/lifting) and high‑level electrical technical skill (fiber optics/sensor calibration).

Key Field Responsibilities

• Site Preparation: Independently arrange testing circuits and install hardware, including corona rings.
• Safety Implementation: Execute rigorous earth grounding protocols to ensure a safe working environment.
• Technical Integration: Lay down fiber optic cables and connect them to sensors with high precision.
• System Calibration: Calibrate sensors and verify system integrity prior to live testing.
• Mobile Lab Operation: Operate and maintain our proprietary Resonant Test System (RTS) following specialized internal training.

Technical Profile

Must-Haves

• Field Experience: Proven track record of site activities in electrical substations (Commissioning, Maintenance, or Testing).
• Certifications: Valid Working at Height and Crane Handling (or Slinger/Signaller) certifications.
• Safety Training: General First Aid and Firefighting qualifications.
• Regional Compliance: EURS registration BESC for UK projects and/or equivalent German safety credentials (EuP or EFK).
• German Speaking Fluent

The “Real Plus” (Preferred Assets)

• Direct experience with Omicron PD (Partial Discharge) systems.
• Experience with HighVolt Resonant Systems .

Candidate Attributes

• Independent Operator: Capable of managing complex setups with minimal supervision after initial training.
• Detail-Oriented: Precision is critical when dealing with fiber optics and sensor calibration.
• Mobile & Flexible: Comfortable with the travel demands of a freelance field role.
