Technical Sales Specialist in Transformer Service

Calgary, Canada

The opportunity

Power transformers are the backbone of our electrical power grid. It is expected that electricity demand will significantly increase in the next 20 years. This will require vast numbers of new power transformers and require existing aged transformers to remain in service for 25 years or longer through large life extension projects. We are looking for a strong candidate with a field or engineering background in transformer service that can develop solutions for customer transformer life extension and new transformer installations and prepare complete, detailed technical proposals.

How you'll make an impact

Main responsibility is to prepare transformer service technical proposals.
