Designs and validates solar PV systems across rooftop and utility-scale projects. Responsibilities include site feasibility, system sizing, energy-yield simulation, BOQ preparation, electrical studies, SLDs and wiring documentation, regulatory compliance, equipment protection, site surveys, and coordination with procurement, project execution, clients, vendors, and inspectors. Requires strong solar, electrical, structural, safety, and grid-interconnection knowledge.
Strategic
- Optimal Configuration Selection: Recommending system designs that balance site constraints (shadow, tilt, orientation) with maximum energy generation.
- Technological Integration: Leveraging industry-standard software (PVsyst, AutoCAD) to provide accurate long-term energy generation forecasts.
- Regulatory Alignment: Ensuring all designs strictly adhere to DISCOM requirements and local standards to mitigate legal and operational risks.
- Feasibility Insight: Providing the high-level technical assessment that determines whether a project is viable for the company to pursue.
Financial
- BOQ Preparation: Developing the Bill of Quantities to provide accurate cost estimations and prevent budget overruns during procurement.
- System Sizing & Performance Analysis: Maximizing the "yield-to-cost" ratio by selecting the right inverter, string, and cable sizes to minimize energy loss.
- Asset Protection: Designing earthing and lightning protection systems to safeguard the financial investment from environmental damage.
- Efficiency Simulation: Using performance analysis to justify project ROI to stakeholders or clients.
Process
- Standardized Documentation: Preparing SLDs, wiring diagrams, and cable schedules to ensure a smooth transition from design to construction.
- Technical Validation: Conducting short-circuit, load flow, and voltage drop analyses to verify the safety and stability of the engineering process.
- Site Surveys: Managing the standardized procedure for site assessment and feasibility studies.
- Cross-Functional Coordination: Acting as the technical bridge between procurement and execution teams to resolve on-site issues and support commissioning.
- Enable capability development of self by overseeing implementation of appropriate systems and policies
- Actively participate in HR initiatives to drive overall employee engagement and motivation

F. RoleRequirements / Specifications
Desired Qualifications
- Primary Degree: A Bachelor’s degree (B.E./B.Tech) in Electrical Engineering or Electrical & Electronics Engineering (EEE) is standard, as the core of the role involves AC/DC design and power systems.
- Secondary Option: A degree in Renewable Energy Engineering or Civil/Mechanical Engineering (provided there is a strong focus on structural design or solar technology).
- Post-Graduation (Optional): An M.Tech in Renewable Energy or Power Systems can be a significant advantage for utility-scale roles.
Desired Experience
- 3 to 6 years of core experience in Solar PV design.
- Project Variety: Hands-on experience across different segments:
- Rooftop: Commercial, Industrial (C&I), and Residential net-metering.
- Utility-Scale/Ground-Mounted: Large-capacity plants (MW scale), involving complex terrain and transmission line design.
- Segment Exposure: Knowledge of EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) workflows is highly valued, as it shows the candidate understands how designs translate into real-world builds.
- Proven track record of generating bankable energy yield reports using PVsyst and Helioscope.
Knowledge & Skills
- Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Principles: Deep understanding of how sunlight converts to electricity, including the impact of irradiance, temperature coefficients, and degradation.
- Electrical Engineering Fundamentals: Mastery of Ohm’s Law, power factor, AC/DC circuit theory, and the mechanics of transformers and switchgears.
- System Components: In-depth knowledge of the latest technology in Bifacial vs. Monofacial modules, String vs. Central inverters, and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
- Regulatory & Safety Standards: Knowledge of national and international codes (e.g., IEC, NEC, IS) and local DISCOM regulations for net-metering and grid-interconnection.
- Geographical & Structural Constraints: Understanding of tilt, azimuth, shadow analysis, and wind-loading requirements for mounting structures.
