Field Engineering Technical Trainer

Position Overview

Power your future with Qulaus as a Technical Trainer in our Field Engineering department! The Technical Trainer delivers end-to-end training consultation tailored to client needs. This role leads technical training programs, providing subject-matter direction to instructional designers and learning scientists. You’ll connect field reality to learning outcomes, steer development, and measure impact.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate on training initiatives—set scope, success metrics, and milestones; maintain alignment to safety, quality, and operational goals.
• Collaborate with instructional developers to translate field workflows and job tasks into learning objectives, scenarios, labs, and assessments; review/approve storyboards and modules for technical accuracy and practicality.
• Act as the technical SME for protection & control and construction lifecycle topics (commissioning, testing, documentation, QA/QC, outage planning, energization readiness).
• Consult with stakeholders (Ops, Engineering, Safety, PM/CM) to identify gaps, prioritize curricula, and define career progression pathways (competency models, proficiency rubrics, evaluator guides).
• Assist with change-management oriented training tied to new tools/processes, plan adoption and reinforcement strategies.
• Use data & analytics (skills assessments, completion and pass rates, field quality/rework, safety observations) to evaluate impact and recommend enhancements.
• Facilitate selective delivery: host SME demos, labs, and vendor equipment sessions; coach field evaluators and mentors; support train-the-trainer where needed.
• Coordinate logistics and tech stack (LMS/VILT tools, lab setups, vendor gear) with the Training Ops team to ensure smooth execution.
• Serve as a client-facing representative for scoping, SOW inputs, and stakeholder updates—clearly communicating status, risks, and results.
• Champion and embed human performance principles throughout programs.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent blend of field experience and training leadership.
• 5–7+ years in P&C engineering, commissioning, or field services and 1–2+ years mentoring/coaching or leading technical training initiatives.
• Strong grasp of electrical theory and protection & control fundamentals; comfort reviewing relay/IED settings, electrical drawings, test records, and oscillography at a practical level.
• Working knowledge of substation/line construction workflows (estimating, scheduling, materials, civil/electrical sequence, inspections, energization, closeout).
• Demonstrated ability to direct instructional designers: write objectives, validate scenarios/labs, and sign off on technical correctness—versus building all materials yourself.
• Experience facilitating hands-on sessions using secondary injection test sets and multi-vendor relays/controls (e.g., Doble, Megger, Manta, Omicron; SEL, GE, ABB/Hitachi Energy, Siemens).
• Excellent facilitation, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
• Travel up to 50% as needed.
