we are hiring a pre-sales solar design & proposal engineer to support our australian commercial & industrial (c&i) solar projects. this role involves technical proposal development, system design, cost estimation, and financial modeling to assist in quoting and pre-sales activities.
π note: experience with australian solar standards (cec, as/nzs 4777) is a plus, but candidates with strong indian c&i solar experience and a willingness to learn australian regulations are encouraged to apply.
key responsibilities:
proposal development & quoting β prepare technical proposals, cost estimates, and tender responses for commercial & industrial (c&i) solar projects.
solar system layout & design β create preliminary system layouts, single-line diagrams (slds), and performance simulations using helioscope, pvsell, opensolar, or similar tools.
financial viability & roi analysis β perform payback period calculations, levelized cost of energy (lcoe) modeling, and financial feasibility studies for project assessment.
energy data analysis β interpret customer electricity bills, load profiles, and consumption patterns to determine optimal solar system sizing.
cost estimation & boq preparation β generate bill of quantities (boq), procurement cost estimates, and capex/opex projections.
stakeholder collaboration β work closely with sales, engineering, and finance teams to refine proposals and ensure alignment with customer requirements.
compliance with australian standards β ensure pre-sales designs align with australian electrical regulations, cec guidelines, and as/nzs standards.
mandatory experience:
β commercial & industrial (c&i) solar pre-sales & proposal development β strong background in quoting, bid preparation, and technical sales support for large-scale solar epc projects.
β financial & project feasibility analysis β experience in lcoe modeling, payback period analysis, and investment return calculations.
β cost estimation & procurement planning β expertise in epc costing, boq preparation, and material estimation.
β solar pv design & simulation β proficiency with helioscope, pvsell, pvsyst, opensolar, autocad, or similar tools for preliminary design and energy yield estimation.
β electrical & sld knowledge β ability to interpret and develop single-line diagrams (slds), system layouts, and grid connection schemes.
preferred/desirable experience:
β australian solar standards & cec accreditation β understanding of as/nzs 4777, cec design accreditation, and australian grid interconnection rules (preferred but not mandatory).
β strong cad & design skills β knowledge of autocad, sketchup, or similar tools for detailed pre-sales design visualization.
required qualifications:
π bachelorβs degree in renewable energy, electrical engineering, power systems, or a related discipline.
π 3 to 5 years of experience in solar pre-sales engineering, proposal development, and financial modeling for c&i solar projects.
why join us?
β
work with a leading australian solar epc company and gain exposure to international solar standards.
β
develop expertise in australian renewable energy regulations and work on large-scale c&i projects.
β
opportunity to work remotely or in a hybrid setup from india while supporting global solar initiatives.
