  • Disconnect switches
  • Instrument transformers
  • Protection and control systems
  • Coordinate with utilities, EPC contractors, civil, structural, transmission line, and protection engineers
  • Review vendor drawings and provide technical guidance throughout procurement and construction
  • Support factory acceptance testing (FAT), commissioning, and energization activities

About You
  • B.S. in Electrical Engineering
  • 5+ years of experience in high-voltage substation engineering
  • Strong experience designing substations from 34.5 kV through 345 kV
  • Experience with utility interconnections and transmission systems
  • Knowledge of IEEE, ANSI, NESC, and applicable utility standards
  • Experience with grounding design, protection coordination, and relay applications
  • PE license preferred (or ability to obtain)
  • Occasional travel to job site is required

Preferred Experience
Experience with one or more of the following:
  • AI or hyperscale data centers
  • Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
  • Transmission switchyards
  • Substation electrical configurations
  • Gas-insulated or air-insulated substations
  • ETAP, CDEGS, ASPEN, or SKM
