Siemens Energy — a global energy technology company with ~100,000 employees across 90+ countries and a 150-year legacy of innovation powering one sixth of the world’s electricity generation — is offering a Part-Time Working Student Engineering position within its Grid Technologies Substations unit in Abu Dhabi. This real-world role allows currently enrolled Electrical Engineering students to work alongside senior engineers on calculations, drawings, and documentation that support live substation project delivery across the UAE.
About Siemens Energy — Grid Technologies
Company Scale: ~100,000 employees in 90+ countries — developing the energy systems of the future with a 150-year legacy of innovation
Grid Technology Division: HVDC transmission, grid stabilization and storage, high voltage switchgears, transformers, and digital grid technology
Mission: Sustainable, reliable, and affordable energy — pushing the boundaries of decarbonization and energy transformation globally
Diversity: 130+ nationalities — celebrating character, background, gender, age, religion, identity, and disability without discrimination
Why This Working Student Engineering Role Stands Out
Real Infrastructure Projects: Your work directly supports live substation project delivery across the UAE — not simulated or academic
Senior Engineer Mentorship: Work closely with senior engineers on calculations, schematics, and documentation from day one
Global Platform Learning: Access to Siemens Energy’s Learn@Siemens-Energy continual learning platform and global team network
Career Foundation: Build practical substation and grid engineering skills alongside a world-class energy technology team in Abu Dhabi
Position Overview
This Part-Time Engineering Working Student role at Siemens Energy Grid Technologies in Abu Dhabi supports senior engineers with fundamental engineering calculations, data collection, and technical analysis for substation projects, assists in preparing and modifying technical drawings and schematics using CAD software under supervision, helps review technical specifications and project documentation, participates in team meetings to stay informed on project status, contributes to creation and maintenance of essential project documentation including reports and technical records, and supports organisation of engineering files and drawings within the company’s document management system.
Why This Role Matters: As Engineering Working Student at Siemens Energy Grid Technologies in Abu Dhabi, you gain hands-on experience on real substation infrastructure delivery projects in the UAE — applying your Electrical Engineering academic knowledge to live calculations, technical schematics, and project documentation alongside senior engineers at one of the world’s most respected energy technology companies. This is your bridge from campus to career in the global energy transition.
