This role reports to the T&D System Studies Asia Department and is based in our\noffice in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.\nThis position is open to candidates who already have the legal right to work in the selected\ncountry. Visa sponsorship is not provided.\n Context:\nOur T&D Power Systems team supports utilities, developers, and investors in addressing grid\nintegration challenges for generation and transmission projects, including renewable energy,\nbattery storage, and HVDC interconnections.\nYou will be part of a global team delivering power system studies across Asia-Pacific, Europe, the\nMiddle East, and Africa, contributing to both project execution and technical development.\nRegular working days: Mon-Fri., 8 hours/day, 5 days/week\nResponsibilities:\n1. Power system studies execution\nPerform steady-state and dynamic power system studies, including load flow, contingency, short-circuit, RMS stability, voltage stability and reactive power assessments. \nDevelop and maintain network models using PSS®E and/or DIgSILENT PowerFactory \nDefine study assumptions, scenarios, and contingencies. \nInterpret study results, identify network constraints and stability risks, and develop technically justified mitigation measures. \nConduct complex technical assessments and develop specialist solutions for power system challenges, including generator and converter model validation, dynamic model tuning, stability enhancement strategies, and mitigation of network constraints. \nInvestigate model convergence, initialization and dynamic performance issues, identify root causes, and implement robust technical solutions. \n2. Grid integration & renewable projects\nContribute to grid connection studies for: solar, wind, and battery energy storage systems (BESS), HVDC and other converter-based technologies \nAssess system impacts of inverter-based resources and propose mitigation measures \n3. Project delivery & coordination\nLead the technical execution of studies from project initiation through final reporting with a high degree of independence and accountability. \nCoordinate with internal teams for inputs, modelling, and validation \nReview and validate work from junior engineers where required \nLead selected study tasks and provide technical guidance to junior engineers \nDemonstrate a proactive approach to identifying problems, proposing practical solutions, testing them, and driving their implementation through to resolution. \nExercise sound engineering judgement by critically reviewing modelling assumptions, challenging simulation results where appropriate, and ensuring technical quality and consistency throughout the study. \n4. Reporting & client interaction\nPrepare clear and structured technical reports and deliverables \nPresent results and conclusions to internal teams and clients \nSupport technical discussions with clients when required \n5. Continuous development\nContribute to internal knowledge sharing and technical improvement \nStay updated on developments in grid integration and power system analysis \nSupport the development and adoption of internal tools, automation scripts and AI-assisted workflows to improve engineering efficiency and study quality. \n Experience\nMaster’s or Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering (Power Systems or Power System Study). \nTypically 8-10+ years of experience in power system studies, either in Malaysia or Global \nExperience in grid connection, transmission planning, or renewable integration projects/study \nStrong knowledge and experience working with TNB network and grid requirements \nExperience liaising and collaborating with TNB, GSO, and Single Buyer is highly desirable \nInvolvement in any ST schemes (LSS, CRESS, Selco, BESS) is an advantage \nExposure to both utility/TSO and developer-driven projects is an advantage \nTechnical competencies\nStrong experience in load flow, contingency, short-circuit, power quality, voltage stability and RMS stability studies. \nDemonstrated expertise in developing, tuning, calibrating and validating dynamic power system models, with the ability to troubleshoot complex modelling issues and deliver technically credible simulations suitable for engineering decision-making. \nAbility to define study scope and assumptions, structure analyses independently, interpret and challenge results \nAbility to critically assess simulation credibility by questioning modelling assumptions, validating results against engineering principles, and distinguishing modelling artefacts from genuine system behaviour. \nPractical experience with renewable energy integration (solar, wind, BESS), HVDC or converter-based resources \nStrong understanding of transmission planning criteria, grid codes, and power system operating principles. \nTools\nAdvanced hands-on experience with PSS®E and/or DIgSILENT Power Factory, including large-scale network modelling, automation workflows, and dynamic model implementation. \nAbility to work with large-scale network models \nSoft skills\nStrong analytical and problem-solving skills \nAbility to work independently and within international teams \nAbility to work effectively under tight project deadlines while maintaining high technical quality across multiple concurrent assignments. \nExperience in task leadership, study coordination, and mentoring junior engineers is an advantage \nExcellent written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to present complex technical concepts clearly to clients and multidisciplinary teams.\n We offer the following to qualified candidates:\nContract type : permanent\nFriendly international working environment with a wide variety of interesting and challenging tasks\nCompetitive salary package\nWell-balanced working hour\nCareer opportunity in one of the largest international consulting and engineering companies\nPossibility to grow professionally and advance in career\nAt AFRY, we engineer change in everything we do.
