About Dharan International
Dharan International is an EPC contractor delivering turnkey utility-scale solar PV, battery energy storage, solar manufacturing and associated infrastructure projects in Africa. Our projects are financed by development finance institutions and multilateral lenders, which means our engineering is read, tested and relied upon by lenders' technical advisers before capital is committed.

The role
- We are building out our Solar Department and are appointing a Principal Solar PV Engineer to own detailed design and the preparation of Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) across our utility-scale PV and PV+BESS pipeline.
- The standard is easy: every design and every DPR that leaves this desk must pass Lender's Technical Adviser / Independent Engineer review without material findings.
- We are looking for someone who has sat on the other side of that table, as Owner's Engineer, Lender's Technical Adviser, Independent Engineer or technical due-diligence reviewer on DFI-financed projects, and who now wants to build the design rather than audit it.

What you will own




Energy yield and resource
- Bankable P50/P90 (one-year and ten-year) energy yield assessments in PVsyst on lender-grade resource data (Solargis-class), with losses, degradation, soiling, availability and uncertainty stacked and defended line by line.
- Specification of on-site measurement campaigns and site adaptation of satellite data where lenders require it.

Detailed design
- Plant layout and DC architecture: module, inverter and tracker/fixed-tilt selection, DC/AC ratio optimisation, string and cable sizing, and loss optimisation.
- Electrical design: LV/MV collection, step-up substation, protection, earthing and lightning protection (IEC 62305, IEEE 80), auxiliary supply, SCADA and power plant controller architecture.
- Grid integration in weak grids: load flow, short-circuit, reactive capability and dynamic stability studies (PowerFactory or PSS/E), grid code compliance and the util
