Design Engineer MV Transformer stations

A Snapshot of Your Day

Join Siemens Energy as a Design Engineer for Medium Voltage Transformer Stations and shape the future of energy infrastructure. You’ll design and optimize both prefabricated and site-built MV/LV substations for utilities, industry, and data centers - ensuring every solution meets international standards and exceeds customer expectations. Imagine your detailed single line diagrams, protection schemes, and cable layouts powering critical infrastructure and supporting the global energy transition. You’ll collaborate with sales, project management, and manufacturing teams to deliver reliable, cost-efficient, and scalable transformer stations. Step into a role where your designs drive innovation, sustainability, and customer satisfaction every day.

How You’ll Make an Impact

Design MV/LV transformer stations (10–36 kV / 0.4–1 kV), preparing single line diagrams, protection schemes, and cable layouts.

Specify key components like power transformers, MV switchgear (AIS/GIS/RMU), and LV switchboards, performing load flow, short-circuit, and voltage drop calculations.

Optimize layouts for footprint, cooling, accessibility, and safety, integrating enclosures, cable entry systems, and fire protection.

Ensure compliance with IEC standards, local grid codes, and support certification and type testing.

You collaborate with sales, project management, and suppliers, reviewing drawings, technical submittals, and providing technical clarifications.

What You Bring

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.

3–7+ years of experience in MV distribution systems and transformer stations, ideally with utilities, OEMs, or EPC contractors.

Proficient with AutoCAD/EPLAN and electrical calculation tools like ETAP or DIgSILENT.

You have a structured, detail-oriented approach, strong problem-solving skills, and enjoy working cross-functionally with sales, production, and project teams.

Experience with prefabricated substations, data center or industrial power distribution is a strong advantage.

Profficient in written and spoken English and Italian is mandatory
