    Base pay range


    Electrical Engineer - Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) | Edinburgh | £45,000 - £60,000

    Design the power systems accelerating the clean energy transition.

    At StorTera, we design and deliver advanced commercial‑scale battery energy storage and ultra‑rapid EV charging solutions that help stabilise the grid, unlock renewable generation, and decarbonise energy‑intensive operations.

    As we scale our project portfolio, we're looking for an Electrical Engineer to play a key role in taking our BESS projects from concept to commissioning — shaping real infrastructure that will power the future.

    If you thrive on complex electrical systems, grid‑connected assets, and seeing your designs come to life in the field, this is your opportunity to make a tangible impact.

    The Role


    You'll be a core technical contributor across the full project lifecycle, leading the electrical design and delivery of commercial and utility‑scale battery energy storage and EV charging projects.

    Working closely with software, mechanical, civil, and project teams, you'll ensure StorTera's systems are safe, compliant, efficient, and grid‑ready — from initial design through to commissioning and operational support.

    This is a hands‑on role with real ownership, visibility, and technical depth.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Design electrical systems for commercial BESS and ultra‑rapid EV charging projects, including single‑line diagrams, panel layouts, wiring diagrams, and equipment specifications (inverters, transformers, switchgear, protection relays, batteries).
    • Perform power system studies, including short‑circuit, load flow, and protection coordination analysis.
    • Ensure compliance with relevant national and international electrical codes and standards (IEEE, IEC, UL, etc.).
    • Collaborate cross‑functionally with project managers, mechanical and civil engineers, software developers, and commercial teams.
    • Develop technical specifications and bid packages for electrical equipment and services.
    • Support procurement, construction, commissioning, and operations, providing expert guidance and troubleshooting.
    • Conduct site assessments and resolve project‑specific electrical challenges.
    • Engage with clients, presenting technical solutions and responding to complex requirements.
    • Continuously improve engineering processes, tools, and best practices.
    • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to a strong engineering culture.

    What We're Looking For

    • Degree in Electrical Engineering or similar accredited discipline.
    • Experience delivering commercial or utility‑scale energy storage, solar PV, EV charging, or power generation projects.
    • Strong knowledge of power electronics, battery technologies (Li‑ion preferred), and grid interconnection requirements.
    • Proficiency with electrical design and analysis tools such as AutoCAD Electrical, ETAP, SKM PowerTools, PSS/E, or PSCAD.
    • Hands‑on experience with key standards including IEEE 1547 and UL 9540.
    • Excellent problem‑solving skills, attention to detail, and a commitment to engineering quality.
    • Confident communicator who works well with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
    • A values‑driven engineer with a clear commitment to safety, sustainability, and societal impact.
    • Developing engineers encouraged: We're happy to consider candidates with less than 5 years' experience. If you have strong fundamentals and ambition, we'll provide structured training and mentoring, with a remuneration package aligned to your development pathway.

    Why StorTera?

    • Work on cutting‑edge energy storage and EV infrastructure shaping the future of clean power.
    • Take ownership of real, grid‑connected projects from design to delivery.
    • Join a collaborative, innovative team that values expertise, learning, and initiative.
    • Competitive salary (£45k-£60k DOE), benefits, and clear career progression.
    • Be part of a company making a measurable difference to the energy system.

    Equality, Diversity & Inclusion


    StorTera is committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued and respected.

    We actively encourage applications from all backgrounds, genders, ethnicities, abilities, sexual orientations, and ages.
