Electrical & Renewable Energy Engineer - MAF Technologies - PNG

Mission Aviation Fellowship

Overview

Electrical Engineer Opportunity – Make a Real Impact!

 

MAF Technologies, previously known in PNG as Christian Radio Missionary Fellowship (CRMF), has been serving isolated communities since 1956. Our mission is to provide technical solutions that advance the gospel and connect people to vital services. Through radio communication, computing, solar lighting, and digital audio Bibles, we help bring hope and transformation to remote communities. With technology rapidly evolving in PNG, MAF Technologies is committed to ensuring no one is left behind.

 

Right now, we have an exciting opportunity for an Electrical Engineer to join our team and be a part of this life-changing mission.

Responsibilities

Are you ready to light up lives and bring renewable energy to places that need it most? In this role, you’ll be the spark behind designing, implementing, and maintaining off-grid and grid-connected renewable energy systems—providing reliable power where traditional infrastructure just can’t reach.

 

But that’s not all! You’ll get to explore and evaluate cutting-edge technologies—from solar, wind, and hydro to marine power and storage solutions—tailoring solutions that are sustainable, impactful, and environmentally friendly.

And because real change starts with people, you’ll also train and mentor national electricians and apprentices, helping to build local expertise and ensure these systems thrive for years to come.

 

If you’re passionate about renewable energy and love the idea of powering up communities, all while sharing your faith, we’d love to hear from you!
