Senior Electrical Engineer – Global Engineering Team – Manila

This is a role for a technically excellent engineer who takes pride in quality, thinks beyond individual projects and wants to influence how great electrical design is done at a global level.

What’s in it for you?

Influence over multiple projects

You will develop and maintain company-wide technical standards, design guides and a technical knowledge base that engineers across the global business rely on. Your work will set the benchmark for electrical design quality at Black & White Engineering, giving your expertise an impact that extends well beyond any individual project.

Work at the frontier of data centre design

You will study and prepare flexible test-fit layouts to meet hyperscale client requirements, support DC site development planning and work directly with the R&D team on the latest technologies and products. It is a technically rich brief that keeps you at the leading edge of what is happening in the sector.

Drive standardisation and consistency

You will define technical decision gateways, support the bid process and ensure that technical proposals meet client requirements to the required standard. If you are someone who finds satisfaction in making complex processes clearer and more consistent, this is a role that gives you the mandate to do exactly that.

Develop the engineers around you

You will mentor and supervise junior and graduate engineers, sharing your expertise and helping to build capability across the team. It is an opportunity to develop your own leadership skills and broaden the impact of your technical knowledge across the business.

A truly global role

Based in Makati, your primary focus will be supporting the Global Engineering Team across offices worldwide. You will collaborate with engineers and design leads across multiple regions, building relationships and sharing expertise that reaches across the entire Black & White Engineering network.

Essential Skills and Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering. Licensed Electrical Engineer status is preferred.
• 7 to 10 years of proven experience in a multidisciplinary design consultancy, with strong data centre design experience.
• Proficiency in electrical systems design including LV power systems, lighting, FDAS, earthing and lightning protection, and ELV systems such as security and telecoms.
• Working knowledge of design software including Dialux, Amtech, ETAP, Navisworks or Bluebeam.
• Sound knowledge of British Standards and relevant international codes and standards applicable to electrical design. Experience with MV power systems is an advantage.
• Proven ability to mentor junior and graduate engineers, with a collaborative approach and strong communication skills.

In addition, you will be joining a community that focuses on learning and development through regular knowledge sharing sessions, investment in accredited professional courses or educational programmes. You can set the pace for your professional development, and whatever path you choose, you will receive relevant support.
