A Snapshot of your day

Your day involves leading the commissioning, testing, and integration of AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator) and Static Excitation Equipment (SEE) systems for heavy-duty gas turbine power plants, ensuring reliable generator performance and grid compliance. You diagnose complex excitation and electrical control issues, provide expert technical guidance on-site, and work closely with commissioning and service teams to optimize plant reliability and minimize operational risks.

How You’ll Make An Impact

• Lead the commissioning, testing, configuration, and integration of Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVR) and Static Excitation Equipment (SEE) for heavy-duty gas turbine power plants.
• Perform site assessments, functional testing, and system validation to ensure excitation systems operate safely and in compliance with Siemens Energy standards.
• Analyze, tune, and optimize excitation control loops and system performance during plant startup and commissioning activities.
• Conduct advanced troubleshooting, root cause analysis, and fact-finding investigations for AVR/SEE failures and electrical system abnormalities, implementing effective corrective actions.
• Provide technical support, customer training, and detailed commissioning and technical reports while collaborating with global engineering teams to resolve complex site issues and enhance plant reliability.
  
  
  

What You Bring

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, Power Engineering, or a related discipline, with 5-8 years of experience in commissioning, servicing, and troubleshooting Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVR), Static Excitation Equipment (SEE), and Generator Protection Relay systems within the power generation industry.
• Professional certifications such as Saudi Council of Engineers (SCE) Accreditation and OEM Certification in AVR/SEE Systems are highly desirable.
• Strong technical expertise in AVR, SEE, generator excitation systems, generator protection relays, electrical control systems, parameterization/configuration, and gas turbine power generation technologies.
• Proven experience in protection relay commissioning, advanced diagnostics, Root Cause Analysis (RCA), troubleshooting, signal analysis, control loop tuning, and resolving complex excitation and generator protection system failures in live operating environments.
• Demonstrated ability to prepare technical documentation, provide customer-facing technical support, ensure HSE compliance, and successfully execute large-scale power generation projects across Saudi Arabia and the wider Middle East region.
