A Graduate Electrical Engineer

As an Graduate Electrical Engineer at RED, you’ll play a vital role in designing electrical systems that power the digital world - especially data centres, which are critical to cloud computing and AI.

Daily tasks often include:

  • Developing power distribution layouts.
  • Reviewing UPS and switchgear specifications.
  • Resolving design conflicts with other disciplines.
  • Coordinating with mechanical and ICT engineers for seamless integration.

Most rewarding part? Seeing your designs come to life on-site and knowing you’ve contributed to global connectivity.

Most challenging part? Handling complex design issues but with a collaborative team, every challenge becomes a learning opportunity.

Tips for success:

  • Learn the basics of MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) systems.
  • Understand how data centres function and the role of key components.
  • Be proactive in asking questions and seeking feedback.

A surprising fact: Data centres currently consume 2–3% of the world’s electricity, a figure that’s growing with the rise of AI and cloud computing. Your work will directly impact global energy efficiency.
