Senior Power Systems Engineer

Location: Perth Office - CBD, WA, AU

26 May 2026

Senior Power Systems Engineer – Perth Office – Permanent Full Time

Western Australia operates one of the most complex power systems in the world. As large-scale renewables evolve and generation sources transition, we’re addressing increasingly complex challenges in system strength, stability, and network capability.

We’re looking for a Senior Power Systems Engineer to play a key technical role in shaping how WA’s transmission network evolves to support large-scale electrification, new generation connections, and a rapidly changing power system.

Your Role in Action

This is a senior technical role at the centre of complex system challenges. You’ll lead high-impact power system studies and translate them into practical network decisions that influence connection outcomes, system limits, and long-term planning direction.

You’ll work across planning, operations and external stakeholders—bringing clarity to technically complex, often competing, system requirements.

Lead advanced power system studies across steady-state, dynamic (RMS) and electromagnetic transient (EMT) domains.

Assess system strength, stability, and network capability impacts of new and existing connections.

Develop and maintain network models (PowerFactory and/or PSCAD), including generator and load dynamic models.

Provide technical advice on large generator and customer connections, balancing system capability with project delivery expectations.

Investigate system performance and incidents, working with generators and customers to optimise control system settings.
Contribute to network development strategies, business cases and planning decisions that shape future transmission capability.

Partner with internal teams and external stakeholders to navigate complex technical and commercial consideration.

What Makes You a Great Fit

Degree in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent).

At least 9 years relevant experience with broad and extensive technical expertise.

Demonstrated technical experience covering the following areas:

Planning, design, operation and maintenance of electricity transmission networks;

Transmission system plant and its application, including the planning criteria, specifications and design requirements.

Large generation and load connection studies including assessment of dynamic behaviour, control system assessments and tuning of parameters.

Modelling requirements for performing transmission network power system studies, including proficiency in dynamic and load flow studies using PowerFactory.

Knowledge of specialist studies in rotor angle, small signal, frequency, voltage stability, electromagnetic transients, and corona.

Economic and financial evaluation techniques.

Eligible for CPEng/NPER registration.

Well-developed written, verbal and presentation / communications skills coupled with strong understanding of economic and financial evaluation techniques.

Familiarity with energy markets, regulatory frameworks, and transmission network power system study requirements.

Why This Role & Western Power

By joining Western Power, you will contribute to powering a cleaner energy future. We are dedicated to fostering career development and promoting a healthy work-life balance, empowering you to drive innovation as we develop a network that will serve the Western Australian community for generations. You will also benefit from a range of perks and opportunities, including:

Work on one of Australia’s most technically unique power systems, with high penetration of renewables and isolated system constraints.

Directly influence network limits, connection outcomes, and long-term transmission planning decisions.

Exposure to complex large-scale generator and customer connections, including renewable and electrification projects.

Deepen your expertise across dynamic modelling, system strength and EMT studies in a highly specialised environment.

Play a visible role in powering WA’s energy transition and decarbonisation pathway.

Alongside this, you’ll be supported with:

Clear technical and leadership progression pathways, with structured development opportunities to grow into Principal, technical specialist or leadership roles.

Flexible work arrangements, including hybrid working and adaptable hours.

The option to purchase up to four weeks of additional leave each year.

Three additional wellness days annually, on top of standard leave.

Access to salary packaging, discounted health insurance and wellbeing initiatives.

A strong internal mobility culture, with significant opportunities for career progression across the business.
