Quality & Technical Integration Expert - Substations: Electrical Works

Reference ID: 9489

Function introduction

As Quality & Technical Integration Expert, you will create and maintain the asynchronous technical framework to ensure that our infrastructure projects are deployed as efficiently as possible, to the highest possible quality and in a standardised manner. The 'asynchronous technical framework' is the set of technical documents and plans, also called standards, that are made available to the projects as a starting point and that must be applied by the projects as much as possible.

When defining these standards, you will seek the best technical solutions that meet the technical and economic requirements of Elia, its customers and the market and are tailored to the development and maintenance of the grid. You will take account of all relevant Elia strategies relating to finance, the environment, safety and security, designs and other issues, and of the available resources.

You will work closely with the technical expertise and maintenance departments and pay attention to safety and security in all your deliberations.

You will join a team of Technical Experts specialising in electrical works in substations and will focus on low-voltage systems within that speciality.

Function

This role involves the following specific tasks and responsibilities related to your area of expertise (substations: electrical works - LV systems):

• Dealing with complex technical issues and operational (experience) feedback within your field and integrating solutions into new or existing standards.
• Devising engineering guidelines, which set out the instructions to be followed during the design and engineering phase and any missing intermediate steps making it possible to apply greenfield standards (new facilities) to brownfield situations (existing facilities).
• Drafting technical specifications for contractors, comprising both general specifications and templates for particular specifications. More specifically, you will be in charge of feedback regarding these specifications and will serve as the main point of contact for the various project stakeholders (contractors, project managers, project engineers, site supervisors, maintenance representatives, etc.), whose feedback you will use to continuously improve the specifications.
• Working with Purchasing on contractor qualification, which is the procedure that must be followed in order to be able to carry out work for Elia as a contractor. This procedure involves, among other things, evaluating the technical capabilities of the candidate contractor. In addition to being involved in the technical qualification of companies, you will also be responsible for the technical certification of qualified contractors' quality managers. These individuals take a test to assess their knowledge of the technical specifications.
• Drawing up processes, templates and methods relating to technical activities (e.g. creating template study reports, preparing and monitoring quality control processes for design and engineering work and implementation).
• Sharing acquired expertise with colleagues and employees in projects via on-demand support and by providing technical training.
• Communicating regularly about developments in technical standards in your field.

Consulting with teams of technical experts in order to:

• ensure professional handling of the technical standards and associated tools needed for projects to run smoothly;
• see to it that the organisation has the most advanced engineering tools to hand to implement its infrastructure projects.

Your Profile

• You hold a master's degree in industrial or civil engineering, specialising in electricity, electromechanics, control & automation or a similar field, and you are interested in the development of the grid in general and substations in particular.
