Job description

Eaton is an intelligent power management company dedicated to improving the quality of life and protecting the environment for people everywhere. The Power Quality (PQ) division at Eaton Electrical provides power management solutions including uninterruptable power supplies (UPS’s), surge protective devices, power distribution units (PDU’s), remote monitoring, software, power factor correction, airflow management, rack enclosures and services. We strive for continued success in leveraging technical innovation to develop next-generation solutions.

We're looking for a Field Project Engineer who wants more than technical support. This is an opportunity to combine hands‑on site delivery with engineering ownership across critical electrical infrastructure projects.

If you enjoy being on‑site, solving technical challenges, and seeing projects through installation, testing and commissioning, we would love to hear from you.

What You’ll Do

As part of our project management team, you'll play a critical role in delivering customer projects safely, on time and within budget.

You Will

  • Support project engineering and delivery across the project lifecycle
  • Prepare and manage electrical design documentation and technical submissions
  • Coordinate installation, testing, commissioning and quality assurance activities
  • Support safe, compliant and high‑quality site delivery
  • Work closely with customers, subcontractors and internal teams
  • Resolve technical issues and develop practical engineering solutions
  • Manage priorities to keep project activities on track

What we're looking for

We're open to candidates from critical power, electrical infrastructure, data centres, utilities, industrial automation, building services or related industries.

You May Be

  • A Project Engineer looking for greater site exposure
  • A Commissioning Engineer wanting broader project ownership

You'll Bring

  • 2+ years' project engineering experience within the electrical industry
  • Experience in project delivery, electrical design, installation or commissioning
  • Strong stakeholder management and written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to manage complex situations and resolve conflict
  • Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving and prioritisation skills
  • Relevant qualification in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline

Why Eaton?

Join a global leader delivering the most critical infrastructure projects, where you'll gain end-to-end project exposure, build highly sought-after technical skills, and grow your career in a business shaping the future of electrification and connectivity.

  • Work on mission‑critical infrastructure projects across data centres, utilities, and industrial environments.
  • Own and influence projects from installation through to commissioning and handover.
  • Develop expertise across project delivery, commissioning, customer engagement, and critical power systems.
  • Competitive salary package, car allowance, & bonus.
  • Global opportunities, local decision‑making, and career progression pathways.

We are committed to ensuring equal employment opportunities for all job applicants and employees. Our recruitment processes encourage diversity by utilising a balanced selection criteria regardless of the applicants age, gender, gender identity, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, or any other status protected or required by law. Eaton prides itself in truly representing the people within our communities.
