Work experience

Solar PV
NDA
Excel, Helioscope
● Analyzed customer consumption information for 18 distribution transformers using Excel and developed load profiles for use in HOMER simulations; improved turnaround time by 1.5x ● Evaluated land requirements using Helioscope in support of a sales engineer; contributed to a 5% improvement in the overall sales process ● Delivered concept designs for a 0.35 km distribution network to support commercial team client engagements ● Prepared cost estimates to support financial modelling; improved overall project cost estimates by 6%
Solar PV
NDA
AutoCAD, EMS, ETAP, PVSyst,HOMER
● Delivered detailed construction designs for solar generation using AutoCAD and grid layouts using QGIS; improved design clarity by 2x, reducing construction time by up to 15%. ● Supported procurement through RFQ technical reviews, clarifying equipment selection and addressing vendor inquiries; improved procurement accuracy by 20%. ● Commissioned and supported system integration of PV, BESS, and diesel generators; implemented EMS change to ComAP, improving commissioning activities by 5x. ● Prepared power system simulation reports using ETAP, PVSyst, and HOMER to validate system performance; supported project costing, yield estimation, and financial modelling. ● Delivered concept, construction, and as-built designs for a 125kWp solar and 20kWh BESS project; enhanced documentation accuracy by 1.2x. ● Delivered construction designs for a 305kWp solar and 430kWh BESS project; remotely supported construction and ensured accurate design interpretation; improved documentation compliance by 9%. ● Reviewed panel builder drawings, particularly low voltage switchgear connections, and provided recommendations aligned with operational logic; saved 10% in project time.
