Solar MEP Engineer

We are looking for a highly technical and detail-oriented Solar MEP Engineer to lead the optimization of construction-ready solar designs. This role will focus on transforming high-level solution designs into cost-effective, executable plans by refining the Bill of Quantities (BOQ), ensuring technical rigor, and managing external subcontractors. You will also be responsible for incorporating real-world construction cost data and implementation outcomes to continuously improve system design and budget accuracy.

MEP & BOQ Optimization

• Review and interpret system designs from the solution design team, focusing on MEP integrity (cable routing, grounding, conduit sizing, equipment layout...).
• Optimize the BOQ to ensure cost-effective yet technically sound construction.
• Refine material lists, cable sizing, structure layouts, and protection systems for budget and performance efficiency.

Construction Design Finalization

• Develop detailed construction drawings and technical implementation documents.
• Ensure constructability of design within real-world site conditions and budget constraints.
• Work closely with procurement and construction teams to ensure alignment with field execution.

Subcontractor Coordination

• Manage and coordinate subcontractors involved in detailed design work or construction execution.
• Validate subcontractor deliverables and ensure compliance with quality, safety, and timeline expectations.

Feedback Integration & Continuous Improvement

• Analyze actual construction data including material usage, labor effort, and final costs.
• Adjust design processes, BOQ buffer/spare percentages, and cost estimation methodology based on implementation learnings.
• Lead technical design improvement workshops post-project completion.

Must-Have:

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Energy Engineering.
• 2–4 years of experience in solar engineering, with at least 1 year focused on MEP or construction detailing.
• Strong grasp of solar PV system design, including electrical and mechanical subsystems.
• Solid experience in optimizing BOQ and construction budgets.
• Proficiency in AutoCAD, PVSyst, and relevant MEP design tools.

Nice-to-Have:

• Experience working with subcontractors or EPC firms.
• Familiarity with construction monitoring tools or cost control systems.
• Knowledge of local/national electrical codes and solar installation standards.

What Success Looks Like:

• Implementation-ready drawings and BOQs delivered with <5% deviation from actual construction usage.
• Continuous reduction in unnecessary buffer and material wastage.
• Subcontractors deliver on time and within cost with minimal rework.

• Salary: Negotiable based on qualifications and experience.
• Performance bonus based on system interaction scores.
• 13th-month salary bonus and other incentives depending on business performance.
• Seniority bonus based on length of service milestones.
• Full participation in social insurance, health insurance, and unemployment insurance as per Vietnamese labor laws.
• 24/7 accident insurance coverage for all employees.
• Annual leave and public holidays in accordance with the law.
• Additional benefits for weddings, funerals, Lunar New Year, Mid-Autumn Festival, etc.
• Allowances: Lunch, transportation, phone, laptop, travel expenses... and taxi card for certain positions.
• Corporate culture: “Aspiration to be different – Different to lead – Lead to succeed.”
• Professional working environment with talented and friendly colleagues.
• Opportunities for regular training, personal development, and clear KPI updates.
• Annual teambuilding and company trips based on business performance.
