- Perform generator sizing, load calculations, and transient analysis
- Design synchronization systems for multiple gensets (load sharing, paralleling)
- Develop protection relay settings (OC, earth fault, differential)
- Design data center backup architectures aligned with Tier III/IV standards
- Ensure compliance with:
- SS 638 / SS 530 (Singapore standards)
- NFPA 110
- Uptime Institute guidelines
Required Experience
- Strong experience in electrical power systems design
- Knowledge of gensets (Kohler / Rehlko / Cummins / CAT / MTU preferred)
- Data center or critical infrastructure experience preferred
- Understanding of UPS integration and redundancy design
Language Requirement
- English + Mandarin Chinese (MANDATORY)
