• Drawing of insulation structure, prepare bill of material, ordering specification, DIL & clearance chart, review with cross function
• Contribute to tender proposals, understanding customer requirement and summarization, Optimization of electrical design of transformers and reactors.
• Ensure that designs adhere to various standards and regulations such as IS, ISO, IEC, IEEE, and other industry-specific guidelines.
• Contribute to Design Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (DFMEA) to assess potential risks and design weaknesses, ensuring corrective actions are implemented.
• Apply FEA tools (experience with tools like ANSYS is a plus) to simulate and evaluate key parameters like electromagnetic fields, thermal performance, and mechanical stress within transformer and reactor designs.
• Work closely with internal engineering teams, external suppliers, and clients to ensure the integration of electrical designs with other systems and provide technical support as needed.
• Maintain detailed records of design specifications, reports, and compliance with industry standards. Document any changes to designs, materials, and processes.
• Travel Requirements:
  Occasional travel to project sites, customer locations, or partner facilities for design reviews, installation, troubleshooting, and support.

Qualifications:

• Educational Requirements:
  Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, or a related field.
• Professional Experience:
  • Minimum of 3-5 years of experience in electrical design, specifically with power transformers and shunt reactors.
• Technical Expertise:
  • Strong understanding of power transformer and shunt reactor electrical design principles.
  • Familiarity with National or international standards such as IS, ISO, IEC, IEEE, and others.
  • Familiar with DFMEA and failure analysis (RCA) to improve design quality and prevent issues.
  • Knowledge of FEA tools is an advantage (e.g., ANSYS, COMSOL).
  • Familiarity with international & national EHS norms.
  • Familiarity with Lean concept i.e. Kaizens, 5S, problem solving tools etc.
• Language Skills:
