About the Organization

A next-generation transformer manufacturing company delivering high-voltage solutions, with a strong focus on engineering excellence, innovation, and execution.

Position Overview

The Senior Electrical Design Engineer owns the complete electrical design lifecycle of EHV transformers — design, validation, optimization, and testing support. The role demands strong theoretical grounding, extensive calculation capability, openness to alternative design approaches, and active involvement in tendering and costing activities.

Key Responsibilities

Electrical Design & Engineering

• Design transformer electrical systems including core, windings, and insulation
• Prepare electrical design documentation and calculations
• Ensure performance, reliability, and efficiency targets are met
• Perform design analysis using design software/simulation tools (e.g., SoftTeam / VIT programs or equivalent)

Advanced Calculations & Theoretical Application

• Perform extensive calculations: losses, impedance, efficiency, short-circuit and thermal considerations
• Apply strong theoretical knowledge to validate designs
• Evaluate alternative design approaches for optimization

Tendering & Proposal Engineering

• Support quotation and tendering activities
• Develop preliminary designs for competitive bidding
• Align technical solutions with commercial requirements

Specification Interpretation

• Interpret customer specifications and requirements
• Ensure compliance with IEC, ANSI/IEEE, ISO standards

Cross-Functional Coordination

• Coordinate with mechanical and control teams
• Work with sales, PMO, manufacturing, and testing teams

Testing & Execution Support

• Support FAT, routine, and type testing
• Resolve design issues during execution

Costing, Optimization & Commercial Awareness

• Contribute to electrical costing for tendering and execution
• Evaluate cost impact of materials, losses, and design choices
• Support cost-performance trade-offs and optimization
• Work with procurement for cost benchmarking
• Provide inputs for budgetary and detailed costing

• Well versed with ANSI transformer designs
• Well versed with reactive-type RMV (Regulating/Reversing) LTC designs with series booster transformers
• Well versed with preventive auto/reactor transformer designs
• Ability to evaluate multiple design alternatives
• Knowledge of IEC, ANSI/IEEE standards
• Awareness of electrical design cost drivers

Engineering Awareness

• Basic understanding of mechanical constraints and layout
• Basic understanding of control systems and interfaces

Professional Competencies

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Ability to think beyond conventional solutions
• Effective communication and collaboration
• High ownership and execution focus

Qualifications

• Minimum 3 years and above  in transformer electrical design
• Experience in EHV transformers preferred
