Cushing Terrell is seeking a Medium Voltage Distribution Engineer to join our growing infrastructure team. This on-site position is available in Missoula, MT, Billings, MT, or Boise, ID. Remote work may be considered for candidates with seven or more years of directly relevant experience.
Day to day, you will design and deliver medium voltage underground and overhead distribution projects under the direction of a Senior Engineer. A typical week involves producing electrical and physical drawings in AutoCAD, running system modeling and engineering calculations including load flow, short circuit analysis, cable ampacity, structure analysis, and sag and tension studies, sizing medium voltage equipment, and collaborating with drafters, clients, and your project team. You will carry roughly two to four active projects at a time.
Year-one success in this role means becoming the engineer your lead can hand a task to with minimal detail and trust that you will work through the specifics and deliver. You are expected to be fully billable within the first month, with growing autonomy by 90 days. Engineers in this seat typically grow into a Project Engineer role. This is a small, close-knit team of three, and your contributions shape the direction of the practice.
The expected salary range for this position is $80,000 to $96,000 annually.
