The posting

The Senior Grid Planning & Strategy Engineer is the strategic architect responsible for aligning our BESS pipeline with Malaysia’s National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR). You will translate high-level energy policy into physical infrastructure investment strategies, identifying exactly where the grid requires BESS to maintain stability. By analysing long-term demand and RE integration challenges, you will position the company as a Strategic Advisor to the TNB Grid System Operator (GSO) and Suruhanjaya Tenaga (ST).

Key Responsibilities

  • Policy-to-Infrastructure Translation: Analyse the NETR and Integrated Resource Planning (IRP) targets to identify the physical transmission upgrades and BESS capacities required to meet 700MW+ RE integration goals.
  • Macro-Grid Stability & Planning: Perform regional load-flow and contingency ($N-1$) analyses using PSS/E or DIgSILENT. Identify "Weak Grid" nodes where BESS can provide synthetic inertia and voltage support to prevent curtailment of solar assets.
  • Strategic Advisory (GSO/ST Liaison): Act as the lead technical diplomat with TNB GSO and ST. Provide evidence-based recommendations on grid-level BESS dispatching and infrastructure design to influence future Grid Code updates and tender structures.
  • BESS Dispatch & Revenue Optimization: Model grid-level BESS dispatch scenarios (e.g., peak shaving, frequency regulation, and spinning reserve). Advise the commercial team on how the National Load Despatch Centre (NLDC) will utilize assets under the CRESS framework.
  • Investment Roadmap Development: Design 5-to-10-year infrastructure investment plans. Identify optimal Point of Interconnection (POI) locations in the 132kV/275kV network where the grid is "thirsty" for BESS, ensuring long-term project bankability.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering (Power Systems) or Energy Policy & Planning.
  • 8 years in Power System Planning, Transmission Engineering, or Grid Operations.
  • Registered Professional Engineer (Ir.) or Graduate Engineer with the Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
