We are the people behind Ireland’s electricity grid. We operate the power system with world leading levels of variable asynchronous renewable generation, ensuring that everyone has power when they need it. But that’s not all, we are now transforming the power system for future generations.
And that’s just the beginning of our story. We have a critical purpose. That purpose is to transform the power system to enable our society to reduce our carbon emissions and meet our climate change and net zero ambitions.
Be part of the transformation

We are now seeking a Senior Engineer to join our Interconnection team. The role of Senior Engineer will support the Interconnection function Team in ensuring that it fulfils its objective to integrate and optimise the use of HVDC interconnection assets to deliver the greatest benefit to the System Operation of the Irish transmission grid while supporting the ongoing integration of renewable generation resources. The role holder will work with the team in areas including multi-disciplined Change Management to execute the analysis of technical and economic problems, propose solutions, prepare presentations and reports for internal and external stakeholder engagement and develop new tools, procedures, operating agreements and policy.

Ireland has a target to achieve 80% of our electricity to come from renewable resources by 2030 and to be net carbon neutral by 2050.

This includes leading the delivery of transformational change in cross border markets, operational development and asset management, as well as identifying and supporting future Interconnector opportunities for the benefit of consumers.
This is an excellent opportunity for innovative, solution-focused, resilient, and motivated individuals to join our team and play a key role in the transition to a low carbon energy future.
