@jhanazaibali
Electrical Engineer specializing in MV/HV commissioning, automation (PLC/SCADA), and power systems reliability.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Electrical Engineer with over 6 years of hands-on experience delivering electrical systems across industrial, commercial, and infrastructure projects. I focus on power distribution and commissioning—from low and medium voltage networks to HV/EHV systems—while keeping safety and standards at the center of every decision.
In my current role at Vander Hoeven Agricultural Company / NEOM Tabuk, I supervise and optimize power generation and distribution for ELV, LV, MV, HV, and HV/EHV networks. I conduct transformer testing and commissioning, evaluate circuit breakers (SF6, vacuum, and oil types), and lead commissioning for complex systems to ensure compliance with project specifications and IEC/NEC and regulatory requirements.
I also build and support automation solutions using PLC platforms (Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Schneider), and I handle FAT/SAT workflows for loop checks and system performance. I design SCADA FAT/SAT systems for real-time monitoring, alarm and datalogging, and I translate engineering requirements into clear documentation like I/O lists, logic diagrams, test reports, and HMI/alarm philosophy.
Previously, in DHA City Karchi (Pakistan) and Banu Mukhtar Contracting Company, I strengthened my reliability and troubleshooting capability through protection coordination, relay/breaker testing, substation maintenance, and isolation/restoration under permit-to-work and lockout/tagout practices. I’m comfortable managing teams, writing method statements/ITPs, and troubleshooting electrical and power system malfunctions to keep projects safe, compliant, and on time.
