The Electrical Engineer III / Senior Electrical Engineer supports the design, implementation, and optimization of electrical systems that power critical infrastructure, including pipelines, compressor stations, and storage facilities.

This position plays an important role in advancing system performance, reliability, and safety through the integration of modern technologies and sound engineering practices. The role may be filled at the Engineer III or Senior Engineer level depending on experience, scope of responsibility, and demonstrated capabilities. At the Senior level, responsibilities expand to include technical leadership, mentorship, and ownership of complex, large‑scale initiatives.

• Design, implement, and optimize electrical systems and power distribution networks supporting critical infrastructure such as pipelines, compressor stations, and storage facilities, with full design ownership and leadership responsibilities at the Senior Engineer level.
• Provide technical expertise in power distribution, electrical schematics, and system layouts for both new construction and upgrades to existing facilities.
• Integrate advanced technologies including automation, real‑time monitoring, and energy storage to enhance system performance and reduce operational costs, with the Senior Engineer championing adoption and driving innovation across projects.
• Participate in engineering projects from concept through execution, ensuring alignment with business goals, timelines, and budget constraints, with the Senior Engineer leading complex projects end‑to‑end.
• Develop and implement safety‑focused designs including arc flash mitigation and fault detection systems to protect personnel and ensure infrastructure reliability.
• Ensure compliance with all relevant safety, environmental, and regulatory standards across electrical systems and project execution.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to deliver engineering solutions that meet internal and external customer needs.

Senior Electrical Engineers provide technical leadership by leading complex projects end‑to‑end, driving innovation and technology adoption, mentoring engineers, and influencing technical direction, project outcomes, and best practices.

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from an ABET accredited college or university OR bachelor’s degree in engineering technology from an ABET accredited college or university in a relevant field with Professional Engineer (P.E.) license.
• Electrical Engineer III typically requires a minimum of 4 years of engineering experience in natural gas, data centers, or a related industry.
• Senior Electrical Engineers typically requires a minimum of 8 years of engineering experience in natural gas, data centers, or a related industry.

• Master’s degree in electrical engineering from an ABET accredited college or university.
• Professional Engineer (PE) licensure.
• Project management experience.
• Experience working in Preliminary‑Front End Engineering and Design (Pre‑FEED), Front End Engineering Design (FEED), or Engineering, Procurement, Construction (EPC) environments for small to mid‑size facility projects.
