With a strong analytical mindset and a natural ability to solve complex problems, you're also a collaborative team player who enjoys mentoring others. You pride yourself on reliability, adaptability, and bringing a sense of ownership to every project.

What you'll be doing (and why you'll enjoy it)
You'll lead the design and technical execution of solar PV systems across rooftops, ground mounts, and hybrid battery solutions. From running feasibility studies and yield assessments to producing detailed technical drawings, you'll ensure projects are robust, cost-effective, and efficient. You'll collaborate with suppliers, prepare reports for permitting, and provide on-the-ground support through construction, commissioning, and handover. Alongside optimising system performance, you'll guide junior engineers and help set best-practice standards across the engineering team.

Where you'll be doing it
Our client is a forward-thinking renewable energy company delivering impactful solar and storage solutions across the commercial and industrial sector. Known for their innovative approach and values-driven culture, they are committed to integrity, purpose, and sustainability. This is your chance to join a scaling organisation that empowers its people to grow, contribute, and make a real difference in the transition to clean energy.

What you'll need
A BEng or BSc in Electrical, Mechanical, or Renewable Energy Engineering, with 3-7 years' hands-on experience in solar and battery projects. Strong technical skills using design tools such as PVsyst, Helioscope, and AutoCAD are key, along with knowledge of grid codes and permitting processes. Experience with battery energy storage systems, inverters, and energy management platforms will be advantageous.

What you'll get
Along with a competitive salary, you'll join a values-driven team where innovation, collaboration, and growth are encouraged. You'll be part of meaningful projects shaping the energy landscape in South Africa.
