The successful candidate will create comprehensive CAD drawings, manage tight project deadlines, and ensure engineering deliverables meet robust technical standards. This position requires a strong technical background in medium- and low-voltage power distribution, generation integration, and protective relaying, combined with the skills to produce complex project documents from conception through commissioning. 

Pay: $85,000 - $ 130,000The pay listed is the salary range for this position. Any specific offer will vary based on the successful applicant’s education, experience, skills, abilities, geographic location, and alignment with market data.

Key Responsibilities 

Project Management & Leadership 

• On-Time Delivery: Plan and manage time effectively to ensure the successful execution and on-time delivery of assigned microgrid and industrial infrastructure projects. 

• Team Mentorship: Mentor and assist in the professional development of junior engineers and designers on power systems fundamentals. 

• Compliance & Standards: Ensure projects are completed on schedule, within budget, and in strict compliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC), IEEE/ANSI standards, NERC/FERC regulations, ISO/RSO rules, utility interconnection requirements, and client guidelines. 

Engineering & Design 

• Power Systems Design: Design and draft complex electrical systems, including low- and medium-voltage power distribution (480V up to 15kV/35kV class), generation integration (BESS, Solar PV, Generators), and critical facility switchgear. 

• Advanced Modeling: Utilize CAD and Revit to create comprehensive construction documents, single-line diagrams, and physical layouts for industrial energy infrastructure. 

• Power System Studies: Perform detailed electrical calculations and Power System Studies utilizing SKM or ETAP, including: 

• Short-Circuit and Equipment Evaluation 

• Protective Device Time-Current Coordination 

• Arc-Flash Hazard Analysis 

• Equipment Specification: Develop detailed specifications for major electrical equipment, including current-limiting fuses, power transformers, switchgear, and protective relays. 

• Site Assessments: Conduct detailed field investigations of existing industrial facility electrical systems to evaluate capacity and interconnection feasibility. 

Stakeholder & Utility Relations 

• Interface Management: Directly interface with asset owners, electric utilities, cross-functional engineering leads, procurement teams, and construction crews to ensure project milestones and interconnection requirements are met. 

• Collaborative Alignment: Work seamlessly within an interdisciplinary engineering team to maintain standardized design blocks and engineering best practices. 

Construction & Commissioning Support 

• Construction Administration: Provide construction administration and commissioning support, including Bill of Material (BOM) technical reviews, submittal evaluations, and final completion reports. 

• Field Troubleshooting: Assist field teams with technical troubleshooting during the installation and startup phases of microgrid controls and switchgear. 

Required Qualifications 

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from an ABET-accredited institution or equivalent. 

• Experience: 3+ years of experience in electrical engineering design, specifically focused on industrial power systems, heavy infrastructure, microgrids, or renewable energy integration. 

• Technical Software: Proficiency in AutoCAD is required (Revit is a plus), hands-on experience with SKM or ETAP modeling software is highly preferred. 

• Codes & Standards: Deep understanding of the National Electrical Code (NEC/NFPA 70), National Electrical Safety Code (NESC/IEEE C2), and industry-standard protective relaying philosophies. 

Professional Attributes 

• Proven ability to manage engineering deliverables for multiple fast-tracked projects simultaneously. 

• Strong written and verbal communication skills for technical reporting, drafting business justifications, and client-facing presentations. 

• Detail-oriented with an uncompromising focus on accuracy, safety, and quality in industrial construction documentation.
