Your role

As a Designer Secondary High Voltage, you develop secondary systems for high-voltage substations into clear, accurate, and executable drawings and documentation. This includes control systems, protection systems, terminal blocks, cable lists, and schematics required to safely build, modify, or commission a substation.

You work on projects for clients such as TenneT, Qirion, and Enexis—from modifications to existing substations with legacy installations to the detailed design of new or modernized substations within voltage levels ranging from 10 kV to 150 kV. You translate the engineer’s design into a complete and buildable detailed package.

You collaborate closely with engineers, project management, and site execution within multidisciplinary teams with short lines of communication. With room for smart, practical detailing solutions, your focus is on quality, completeness, and constructability—the design must not only be correct on paper but also work in practice.

What will you be doing?

• Developing secondary installations into schematics and detailed drawings (control, protection, and automation)

• Preparing cable lists, terminal block overviews, connection lists, and work packages

• Processing revisions and modifications in existing substation documentation and as-built packages

• Reviewing drawings and documentation for consistency, completeness, and applicability for construction

• Coordinating with engineers on technical input, design changes, and detailed decisions

• Collaborating with primary engineering, civil engineering, and project management to achieve a fully executable overall design

• Working with tools such as ELCAD, AutoCAD, Excel, and other project- or client-specific software

• Supporting site execution and commissioning activities
