Coordination and Interface Management Review and approve the necessary commissioning procedures in close coordination with the Employer. Maintain and own the I&C and SCADA Interface Register for all areas such as turbine‑generator, balance of plant, switchyard, communication and TNB grid/SCADA). Critically review interface definitions, identify gaps, and formally instruct the E&M Contractor to resolve inconsistencies in line with contractual obligations. Lead regular interface meetings (weekly/biweekly) with the E&M Contractor and their Subcontractors to identify clashes, responsibilities and due dates; issue clear action lists and follow up to closure. Ensure alignment of control philosophies, I/O lists, communication architectures and signal lists between the E&M Contractor and TNB requirements. Act as the Employer’s technical authority for cross-system integration matters and interface disputes. Commissioning Assurance and Witnessing Review and approve the E&M Contractor’s commissioning strategy, procedures, and detailed schedules for I&C and SCADA systems. Witness key commissioning stages including pre-commissioning, loop checks, functional testing, energisation, synchronisation, and trial operation. Verify commissioning readiness prior to critical milestones (energisation, first synchronisation, COD). Ensure all systems are tested in accordance with approved procedures and contractual acceptance criteria before certification. Technical Review and Clarification (I&C and SCADA) Review key I&C and SCADA deliverables for integration aspects: control philosophies, P&IDs, I/O lists, communication block diagrams, network topology, HMI/SCADA screen list, alarm list and event list. Check that interfaces between PLCs/DCS and SCADA (plant SCADA, TNB SCADA / RTU) are consistent in both hardware (ports, cards, cabling). Coordinate resolution of technical queries (TQs) between parties, ensuring responses are technically sound and consistent with contract and TNB standards. Ensure proper implementation of interlocks, protections, fail-safe logic, and redundancy requirements. SAT and Commissioning Coordination Prepare or review integrated SAT procedures for I&C, PLCs, protection interfaces and SCADA (including communication and data point testing to TNB). Ensure that all cross-vendor tests are clearly defined, witnessed where required, and documented. Support site teams during commissioning and trial runs to troubleshoot integration issues. Verify that all integration tests, including TNB SCADA data point verification and telecontrol functionality, are successfully completed. Compliance with TNB and Contract Requirements Verify that all I&C and SCADA interfaces comply with TNB grid code, SCADA/telecontrol requirements and project technical specifications. Track TNB comments on submissions, coordinate consolidated responses from E&M Contractor, and ensure timely re‑submission and approval. Support the Employer in securing approvals required for energisation, synchronisation, and commercial operation. Documentation and Configuration Management Maintain updated integration drawings and lists (communication architecture, I/O and signal mapping, addressing tables, time synchronisation scheme) reflecting agreed solutions. Ensure as‑built I&C and SCADA documentation from the E&M Contractor is consistent and complete before takeover (including licenses, passwords, network diagrams and configuration backups). Ensure E&M Contractor meets contractual requirements related to integration, commissioning, and performance guarantees. Review and certify completion of commissioning milestones and readiness for Taking-Over Certificate (TOC) and Commercial Operation Date (COD). Provide technical input into contractual notices related to delays, non-compliance, or defects in integration and commissioning. Maintain detailed records to support claims, variation assessments, and dispute resolution if required. Prepare the Commissioning Report. Progress and Risk Management Identify integration-related risks (late deliveries, open TNB comments, missing I/O, protocol incompatibility) and highlight them early to STSC and the Employer with mitigation actions. Provide concise weekly updates on I&C/SCADA integration status, key issues and required decisions from Employer/STSC. Provide independent progress assessments to the Employer, including readiness for key milestones and COD. Promote safe commissioning practices in line with Malaysian regulations and international standards. Attend Project Risk and Lessons-Learnt workshops. Job Specification BSc degree in electrical or mechanical engineering At least 20 years’ experience in hydropower projects. Proven experience in SAT, commissioning and troubleshooting of I&C and SCADA systems on site. Familiarity with relevant IEC/IEEE/ISA control and SCADA standards and utility grid/SCADA requirements. Extensive experience in SAT, commissioning, and system integration across multi-vendor environments. Working knowledge of FIDIC contracts and contractual enforcement in project execution. Knowledge of Malaysian Grid Code and Grid Code test procedures would be an asset Must be proficient in English. Location: Nenggiri Project Site, Gua Musang, Kelantan Contract: 12 to 18 months At Surbana Jurong, we put talent, hard work, teamwork and a fun workplace together to approach problems and solve them creatively and collaboratively. Join us in making a positive impact on the world!
Here's how to pick the right one and stand out in your application.

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
