HVDC Site Engineer

Location: Stord, Norway

Contract Length: 12 months onshore + potential offshore work for 6–18 months depending on project progress.

About the Role:

Join a leading HVDC offshore substation project as a HVDC Site Engineer. This role involves working on the fabrication and testing of major high-voltage electrical equipment. You'll oversee systems critical to the substation, ensuring compliance, quality, and performance standards are met.
