DescriptionTechnical Manager-High Voltage Lines
As a Technical Manager – HV Transmission Lines, you will lead the engineering and technical delivery of high‑voltage (HV) and extra‑high‑voltage (EHV) transmission line projects for utility, renewable energy, and power generation clients. You’ll serve as a senior technical authority, guiding projects through routing, detailed design, QA/QC, calculations, redline reviews, and drawing verification, with a focus on technical excellence rather than hands‑on drafting.
In this role, you’ll mentor and develop engineers, ensure compliance with industry codes, utility standards, and client requirements, and support projects from early feasibility and routing through construction and energization. Your expertise will directly shape the delivery of safe, reliable, and resilient transmission infrastructure.
If you’re ready to lead complex HV/EHV transmission line engineering projects and make a lasting impact on the future of energy delivery, apply today and join a team where your technical leadership truly matters.
