What is the difference between Director Electrical Power Engineer vs Electrical Power Engineer?

AspectDirector Electrical Power EngineerElectrical Power Engineer
CredentialsTypically requires a Bachelor's or Master's in Electrical Engineering, PE license, and extensive experienceRequires a Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering, possibly a PE license, and relevant work experience
Work EnvironmentLeadership roles overseeing projects, teams, and strategic planning in power generation or distribution companiesHands-on technical work in power plants, substations, or electrical systems design and maintenance
Employer & IndustryUtilities, energy companies, large industrial firmsPower generation, transmission, and distribution sectors

The main difference is that the Director Electrical Power Engineer holds a senior leadership position focused on strategic oversight and management, while the Electrical Power Engineer is more involved in technical design, analysis, and operational tasks. Both roles require relevant credentials and industry experience, but the director role emphasizes leadership and project management.

Re-posted 17 days ago

Key responsibilities

  • Define and own the electrical architecture for ammonia-to-power systems, including generation, storage, and grid interface

  • Lead electrical integration across mechanical, process, and controls systems, establishing system boundaries and interfaces

  • Provide technical leadership in design reviews, issue resolution, and establishing electrical standards and safety strategies

Job description

Description
Amogy is a clean tech energy company redefining how power is delivered. Through our innovative technology, we are unlocking ammonia as a practical, carbon-free energy carrier for reliable power. Our technology converts ammonia into hydrogen on demand, enabling dispatchable power for sites where the grid is constrained, unreliable, insufficient, or customers simply need clean power. As demand for clean power accelerates, Amogy is building the energy systems to deliver it, cleanly, reliably, and at scale.
Job Summary:
We are hiring a Director, Electrical & Power Systems to define and own the electrical architecture for Amogy's next-generation ammonia-to-power systems. This role is responsible for translating a chemically driven power source into a grid-ready, dispatchable power product. You will define how generation, storage, and controls come together into a cohesive system that behaves at the customer interface like a highly responsive, reliable power asset.
This is Amogy's primary electrical SME role, with end-to-end ownership spanning product architecture, integration strategy, and project execution. You will often operate as a chief engineer- setting system direction, making critical design decisions, and staying closely engaged in implementation and integration. Over time, you will build up Amogy's electrical engineering function, but the immediate focus is owning the architecture and driving execution toward Amogy's early commercial product deployments.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Define and own the electrical architecture for integrated ammonia-to-power systems, including generation, BESS, power conversion, and grid interface
  • Architect a system that presents as a single, dispatchable power asset to the customer (e.g., genset-like behavior, single point of interconnection)
  • Develop power management and control strategies that decouple reformer/engine dynamics from customer load requirements
  • Lead electrical integration across mechanical, process, and controls systems, establishing clear system boundaries and interfaces
  • Own design of power distribution, protection schemes, grounding, and interconnection strategy
  • Drive key tradeoffs across performance, responsiveness, efficiency, cost, and reliability at the system level
  • Establish electrical standards, safety philosophy, and compliance strategy (UL, IEC, NFPA, etc.)
  • Provide technical leadership across product development and project execution, including design reviews and issue resolution
  • Define scalable, modular architectures that reduce dependency on custom EPC-driven engineering
  • Act as the company's primary electrical SME and help build internal capabilities over time

Requirements
Required Qualifications:
  • BS in Electrical Engineering
  • 10-15+ years designing and deploying complex power or energy systems
  • Deep expertise in power distribution (LV/MV/HV), power electronics & conversion systems, grid interconnection and protection schemes
  • Experience integrating multi-disciplinary systems (mechanical, controls, process)
  • Proven experience owning system-level electrical architecture, not just subsystems
  • Strongly Preferred
  • Experience with distributed energy systems (gensets, microgrids, BESS, fuel cells, hybrid systems)
  • Experience with power management systems and energy management systems (EMS)
  • Experience delivering containerized or modular power systems
  • Exposure to industrial, marine, or off-grid applications
  • Experience working with certification bodies (UL, IEC, DNV, ABS):
  • Balance of hands-on and architectural work
