Operations & Commissioning Engineer
– Clean Energy Generation
About Bryntell
We are a young company — and not just any company. With our energy generation installations, we produce power without emitting nitrogen oxides, and that is a major achievement.
As you may know, nitrogen emissions have been high on the political agenda in recent years. This has resulted in measures such as buy-out schemes for farmers, construction delays, and challenges in energy supply near Natura 2000 areas and zero-emission zones.
After years of technological development, Bryntell has built energy generation systems that offer a real solution to these challenges. For more information, please visit www.bryntell.com.
We expect strong growth in the coming years. Several installations are currently operational at construction and infrastructure projects, while new systems are in production and manufacturing capacity is being scaled up.
To support this growth and our operational challenges, we are looking to strengthen our team with an Operations & Commissioning Engineer.
The Role
In this role, you will be responsible for the installation, commissioning, operation and ongoing performance of our clean energy generation systems at customer sites. You will combine hands-on technical work with coordination, planning and leadership responsibilities.
We are looking for an experienced engineer, project leader or team leader with a strong background in diesel and gas engines. Candidates with experience in power generators, backup power systems, transformers or similar systems are also encouraged to apply. Any specific training required for our installations will be provided.
