A rare one. A national specialist engineering business is bringing its AC mitigation and earthing capability in house, and we’re looking for the engineer who will build it.
The work already exists. It’s currently delivered by a subcontractor and is being brought back in house, so whoever takes this role starts with a live workload and an existing client base rather than a blank page.
The role
You’ll take ownership of AC interference and induced voltage assessment on pipelines and buried infrastructure, and the mitigation design that follows:

The role
You’ll take ownership of AC interference and induced voltage assessment on pipelines and buried infrastructure, and the mitigation design that follows:
- AC interference, LFI and EPR assessments, and CDEGS modelling
- Mitigation design including gradient control wire, zinc ribbon, decouplers, polarisation cells, bonding and grounding systems
- Technical reports, calculations and recommendations
- Review of drawings, specifications and route alignments
- Tender submissions and costing
- Support to cathodic protection projects and integrity management programs
- Technical support through construction, commissioning and maintenance
- Liaison with utilities, contractors, clients and regulatory bodies
About you
- Degree qualified in electrical engineering (corrosion, chemical or materials considered with the right background)
- Hands-on CDEGS experience, ideally across HIFREQ, MALZ and RESAP
- Working knowledge of AS/NZS 4853, with AS 2067, AS 1768 and IEEE 80/81 useful
- Experience in earthing design, EPR and LFI studies, soil resistivity and current injection testing
- Comfortable dealing directly with clients and utilities
- CDEGS certification
- CPEng, NER or RPEQ
- Pipeline or buried infrastructure experience
- Any exposure to cathodic protection
- $140,000 to $190,000 + super, depending on experience
- The CDEGS licence and test equipment funded
- A second engineer to be recruited beneath the role once it’s running
- Offices in every mainland state plus New Zealand, with Sydney, Brisbane or Melbourne all workable
