We are currently seeking an experienced HV Power and OHLE Engineer to join TransitLinX (a John Holland and RATP Dev Joint Venture) based in Melbourne on our Suburban Rail Loop project.

About the Role:

The HV Power and OHLE Engineer plays a key role in ensuring that the High Voltage (HV) Power and Overhead Line Equipment (OHLE) design and assets are developed to meet the needs of future SRL operations and maintenance, maximizing safety and performance while optimizing life cycle costs.

Reporting to the Engineering Authority Manager, this role offers a strong growth opportunity for a hands-on engineering professional who wants to contribute to a landmark, city-shaping infrastructure project within a structured, international, and high-impact environment. In this role, you will:

• Support the development and maintenance of the HV Power and OHLE related sections of O&M Concept Documents, including aspects related to the SCADA System
• Ensure that the HV Power and OHLE related information of the concept documents is properly translated into O&M Needs and subsequent Project requirements
• Ensure that the Reliability, Availability and Maintainability (RAM) specification and subsequent design of the HV Power and OHLE meets the expected system performance
• Conduct comprehensive analysis of the Works Packages HV Power and OHLE Specification and Design to ensure the Operator requirements are met
• Review, provide input, and challenge the HV Power and OHLE reliability targets with the Alliance partners
• Contribute to the Safety in Design meetings involving HV Power and OHLE design
• Ensure a seamless integration of HV Power and OHLE with other sub-systems and review all interfaces involving HV Power and OHLE
• Collaborate with stakeholders to prioritize and implement HV Power and OHLE improvements based on operational requirements and strategic objectives
• Support the O&M readiness team with the delivery of HV Power and OHLE related O&M maintenance procedures
• Collect and provide asset information to the asset management teams as per the asset management schema
• Own the Lifecycle Cost (LCC) assumptions for the franchise period and ensure they are improved through the design phase
• Maintain documentation of HV Power and OHLE maintenance procedures, and participate in reviews, audits, and inspections as required
• Review HV Power and OHLE completion and handover artefacts, and define/manage Technical Assistance support as required
• Support in the development of the TLX Electrical Safety Management System
• Stay informed about emerging trends, technologies, and regulatory changes impacting public transport systems, proactively addressing any implications for system operations and compliance

You are an autonomous, structured, and delivery-focused engineering professional with a strong safety, operational, and systems integration mindset. You have the ability to assess complex designs critically, challenge assumptions constructively, and work effectively alongside diverse Alliance partners and stakeholders. You are driven by the opportunity to shape world-class transit systems from the early design phases through to delivery. You will bring:

• A Master’s degree in Engineering, or a highly related field
• 7 to 10 years of proven experience in HV Power and OHLE design, manufacturing, testing & commissioning, and maintenance
• Hands-on experience with depot equipment, special tools, and new technologies for predictive maintenance
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills, with a track record of working effectively with cross-functional teams and external stakeholders
• Experience with project management methodologies and tools, with a proven track record of successful project delivery
• Certification or training in relevant system technologies or methodologies (desirable)
• Strong familiarity with transit operations and maintenance readiness environments (desirable)
