Role Summary

The Electrical Engineering Intern supports the Technical team in designing, documenting and monitoring solar PV systems. The intern works on real projects — layouts, Single Line Diagrams (SLDs), site assessments, system monitoring and product testing — under the guidance of qualified engineers.

The Technical department protects system quality: correct design means fewer reworks, good monitoring means early fault detection, and proper activation means faster billing. The intern drafts, checks and records; an engineer reviews and signs off every design.

In this role you will:

1. Design & Drawing Support

  • Draft roof layouts and SLDs in AutoCAD (or equivalent) for engineer review
  • Support system sizing, string configuration and cable sizing calculations, and check BOM accuracy.
  • Save every drawing with its source file in Dropbox and update its HubSpot status the same day.

2. Site Assessments

  • Join site visits and drone inspections; record roof condition, shading, switchboard and cable routes with photos.
  • Help prepare site assessment reports and power-study data for non-domestic ATAP applications.

3. Monitoring & Troubleshooting

  • Check monitoring platforms daily for alarms, offline systems and underperformance, and log issues for the engineers.
  • Assist with fault diagnosis and keep a clear record of each fault and fix.

4. Product Research & Testing

  • Compile datasheets and comparisons for new products (inverters, batteries, microinverters).
  • Support product testing, such as SOLS Life microinverters and batteries, and record results.

5. Internship Project

  • Deliver one improvement project agreed by week 2 (e.g. a design checklist, calculation template or monitoring dashboard), and present it before the placement ends.

To be shortlisted for this position, you will need to have:

Essential

  • Currently pursuing a Degree or Diploma in Electrical / Electrical & Electronic Engineering.
  • Basic knowledge of electrical principles: circuits, protection, cable sizing.
  • Basic AutoCAD skills (or willing to learn quickly).
  • Good English and Bahasa Malaysia; able to travel to sites and work safely at height when required.

Preferred

  • Coursework or projects in solar PV, renewable energy or power systems.
  • Familiarity with PVsyst, Excel calculations or AI tools.
  • Own transport.

What’s great about this opportunity?

  • Internship Allowance
  • On-the-job training for your role and mentorship by industry professionals
  • A letter of recommendation will be given upon completing your internship with excellent performance.
  • Work in an agile-driven environment alongside a diverse team
  • Contribute directly to improving the lives of low-income communities, as a part of a #madetoimpact organisation
