Remote Power Distribution Engineer information

What does a remote power distribution engineer do?

A Remote Power Distribution Engineer is responsible for designing, analyzing, and maintaining electrical power distribution systems, often from a remote location. They use specialized software and tools to monitor power grids, troubleshoot issues, and optimize the distribution of electricity to ensure reliability and efficiency. Their work may involve collaborating with field teams, planning system upgrades, and ensuring compliance with safety and regulatory standards. Remote work allows them to manage projects and resolve problems without needing to be physically present at power distribution sites.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote power distribution engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Power Distribution Engineer, you need a solid background in electrical engineering, power systems analysis, and a relevant engineering degree with licensure such as a Professional Engineer (PE) certification. Familiarity with software like AutoCAD, SCADA systems, and power flow analysis tools is typically required. Strong problem-solving abilities, effective communication, and the ability to collaborate remotely are vital soft skills for this role. These competencies enable engineers to ensure safe, efficient, and reliable power distribution while coordinating with dispersed teams and stakeholders.

What are some common challenges faced by remote power distribution engineers, and how can they be effectively managed?

Remote Power Distribution Engineers often encounter challenges such as coordinating with on-site teams across different locations, troubleshooting issues without being physically present, and ensuring reliable communication with stakeholders. Effective management of these challenges involves leveraging advanced remote monitoring tools, maintaining clear communication protocols, and staying updated on the latest industry standards. Building strong relationships with field personnel and participating in regular virtual meetings can also help bridge the gap and ensure smooth project execution.

Job description

Guidant Power | Engineering services by Morrow Engineering | Wichita, KS or Colorado Springs, CO | Remote consideredAbout Us
Guidant Power delivers electrical safety, reliability, engineering, and training services to leading companies across North America, serving clients in 47 states and counting. Our engineering services are powered by Morrow Engineering, a Guidant Power company providing electrical engineering for industrial power systems since 1986, with over 7,000 studies completed for national clients in food and beverage, manufacturing, energy, data centers, and logistics. You will work alongside Guidant sister companies in arc flash analysis, infrared thermography, and electrical safety training.The Role
This is an entry level position for a recent graduate or an engineer with one to two years of experience. You will support our Project Engineers on power distribution projects for new installations and retrofits across multiple clients, handling the engineering and design work that keeps those projects moving: building models, running calculations, producing drawings, and collecting field data. You will work under the supervision of senior engineers and licensed PEs while you build the core skills of a power systems consultant. Expect real project work from day one, with a clear path toward independent project responsibility and PE licensure.What You Will Do
  • Provide engineering and design support to Project Engineers on new installation and retrofit projects for multiple clients: models, calculations, drawings, and deliverable preparation
  • Build and update power system models in ETAP, SKM Power*Tools, and EasyPower under senior engineer direction
  • Perform short circuit, protective device coordination, and arc flash calculations per IEEE 1584 and NFPA 70E
  • Travel to client facilities to collect equipment data and verify one line accuracy, including energized data collection under NFPA 70E procedures with proper PPE and training (5-15% travel)
  • Create and revise one line diagrams, schematics, and design drawings in AutoCAD
  • Draft study reports and arc flash labels for senior review
  • Participate in internal training on power system fundamentals, study methodology, and electrical safety
What We Are Looking For
  • BS in Electrical Engineering from an ABET accredited program, power systems coursework preferred
  • Zero to two years of experience; internships and co-ops in power or industrial settings count
  • FE exam passed or scheduled, preferred
  • Exposure to ETAP, SKM Power*Tools, or EasyPower is a plus;
  • Exposure / working knowledge of AutoCAD
  • Solid grasp of three phase power fundamentals: per unit analysis, fault calculations, transformer and motor basics
  • Clear written and verbal communication, and the discipline to document your work
  • Willingness to work in industrial environments and follow site safety requirements
  • Eligible to work in the U.S. and able to pass client background checks
What We Offer
  • Competitive salary ($70k-$85k) and benefits including health insurance, 401(k), and paid time off
  • Full licensure support: FE and PE exam fees, prep materials, and study time
  • A defined growth path from engineer to project ownership, with mentorship from licensed PEs
  • Variety most firms cannot offer: studies, design, and field work across national clients and industries
