Senior Transformer Design Engineer

What you will be doing:

You will lead the advancement of dry-type LV transformer technologies up to 2MVA with an emphasis on:

• Improving system efficiency and reducing lifecycle energy losses
• Designing with sustainable materials and lower environmental footprint
• Standardizing platforms to reduce waste and optimize manufacturing
• Supporting electrification projects across renewable, industrial, commercial and clean-tech sectors
• Enhancing safety and reliability for mission-critical clean-power applications
• Implementing smart design rules and digital configuration for rapid deployment
• Reducing quote-to-manufacture cycles to accelerate renewable projects globally
• You will collaborate directly with cross-functional engineering, operations, and commercial teams to ensure product designs align with customer sustainability objectives and global ESG commitments.

What you must have:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical or Electromechanical Engineering (P.Eng or eligibility preferred)
• 5+ years experience designing power or distribution transformers; deep knowledge of air-cooled dry-type systems
• Expert understanding of magnetics and design-for-manufacture principles
• Strong grasp of certification and compliance standards (UL, CSA, IEEE, NEMA, CE)
• Practical experience in R&D or product development in a factory environment
• Aptitude for implementing design improvements that reduce cost, weight, and energy loss
• Experience with power electronics, harmonics, or phase-shift configurations an asset
• Advanced software and drafting skills (OPS or comparable design suite, AutoCAD, data tools)
• Passion for sustainable engineering, efficiency, and continuous improvement
