The successful candidate will support the design, configuration, and commissioning of protection and control systems for substations, renewable energy projects, and industrial power systems. Prior experience in these areas is highly desirable but not essential as we will provide all training.

The role is offered as a full-time staff position, based at our Cork Office, with an excellent Salary and Benefits package. If successful, you will enjoy NeoDyne's "People First" company culture, built on mutual respect, trust, and honesty, where each individual actively contributes as a valued team member.

Overview

NeoDyne is a leading engineering company specialising in industrial automation, digital manufacturing, and electrical engineering solutions. We develop high-availability automation and electrical systems for mission-critical industries, including pharmaceutical manufacturing, data centres, and energy infrastructure, ensuring continuous operation and compliance.

Within our Transmission & Distribution team, we deliver mission-critical design packages that transform the reliability, availability, and efficiency of the energy network, moving it towards a greener, more sustainable future. Department highlights include:

Driving complex design delivery: We design AIS/GIS substations from 20kV to 220kV and contestable build and non-contestable stations in the range of 40 to 550MVA CCGT. Connections include conventional and renewable Power Generation, Peaking, Battery Storage, DS3 and Solar PV plants and large demand loads such as data centres and process plants.
Delivery of high-complexity design frameworks: NeoDyne is a gas network design framework supplier, playing a significant role in providing electrical and instrumentation engineering services for the on-shore Natural Gas Industry and Regulated gas utility sector in Ireland and the UK. Our expertise include Compressor Station, AGI Electrical & Instrumentation design, Fiscal and non-Fiscal metering, and Cathodic Protection.

With a team of 220+ skilled engineers, our expertise spans the entire project lifecycle, from design and implementation to commissioning and operations. From our offices in Ireland, the UK, Romania, and the US, we operate on a global scale, combining technical expertise with local delivery. We support customers across Europe, North America, and Asia, delivering tailored engineering services that drive long-term success.
