Transmission Lines Engineer

Your impact

Our Energy and Power group is growing, and we’re delivering a diverse range of transmission line projects across Australia. We’re looking for a Transmission Lines Engineer in Melbourne to play a key role in bringing these projects to life.

You’ll be delivering high voltage transmission line projects across Australia and, increasingly, the wider APAC region. As part of Jacobs’ established Transmission Lines team, you’ll contribute to real projects from early design through to construction support—working on infrastructure that underpins the energy transition.

With our strong pipeline of work ahead, you’ll have the opportunity to build depth in transmission line design while staying close to the practical realities of delivery.

You’ll be supported by experienced engineers locally, with access to a broader network of specialists across APAC, giving you scope to learn, share knowledge, and contribute to projects beyond Australia.

This role offers variety—technical design work, collaboration across regions, and the occasional site visit to some of the more remote and interesting parts of our country.

Here's what you'll need

• Experience in transmission line engineering and design
• A degree in Civil, Structural, Mechanical, or Electrical Engineering
• Familiarity with tools such as PLS-CADD, TOWER, or POLE
• An understanding of relevant standards (AS/NZS, IEEE, IEC)
• A practical approach to problem-solving and a willingness to collaborate across teams
• Salary range $80-$90,000 AUD + super

We’re open to different levels of experience as there may be other opportunities within the team that align with your experience.  If you’re earlier in your career, this is a chance to build your capability with strong technical support and a steady flow of well-scoped work. If you’re more experienced, you’ll have the opportunity to take on greater ownership, contribute to technical direction, and support the development of others—while still staying close to the technical work. #LI-CK1
