We are transitioning our HV engineering group to SBS Substation Design Suite (SDS) as our primary production platform, and we are looking for the person who will own that transition end-to-end. This is not a draftingย roleย and it is not a pure IT role,ย it sits at the intersection of substation engineering, design standards, and production automation. The right candidate will be a substation designer or engineer with deep AutoCAD and SDS experience who can work alongside our discipline leads, delivery team, and technology group to build a scalable and high-quality design production system.
Key Responsibilities:
SDS Program Ownership:ย Own the SDS/SBS AutoCAD rollout roadmap, content backlog, and release cadence. Manage the transition from standard AutoCAD to SDS as the default workflow for standard substation projects.ย
Content Governance:ย Coordinate withย Engineeringย Leadsย toย maintainย block libraries, naming conventions, attribute rules, sheet setup standards, and template release controls.ย Ensureย every block, symbol, and template has an owner, revision date, approval status, and intended project type.ย
Training and Adoption:ย Develop and manage a role-based training program coveringย new users, checkers, project engineers, content owners, and production contributors. Trackย adoptionย metrics and report on progress against rollout milestones.ย
Technology and AI Integration:ย Coordinate with the ANS technology team on AutoCAD LISPs, automation scripts, and AIย integrations.ย Ensureย SDS outputs are structured to support automated checking workflows.ย ย
Qualifications and Skills:
Experience managing or contributing to AutoCAD block libraries, template standards, naming conventions, or similar design content governance programs.ย
Ability to develop and deliver training content to engineers, designers, and checkers with varying levels of SDS experience, including remote teams.ย
Position Requirements:
Associate's or Bachelor'sย degree in electrical engineering, engineering technology, drafting, or a related field preferred. Equivalent professional experience in substation design with strong SDS/AutoCAD depth will be considered in lieu of a degree.ย
5+ years of experience in substation design or a closely related field, withย demonstratedย ownership of production tools, templates, or standards.ย
Benefits:ย
