About Us
CARIAN is a purpose-driven, certified woman-owned consulting and advisory firm serving the power and utilities sector. We partner with leading electric and gas utilities to deliver capital programs, enhance operations, and solve complex challenges with deep industry expertise.
Position Overview
CARIAN is seeking a field-focused Assistant Project Manager / Staff Engineer to support the delivery of overhead utility construction projects for a major electric utility client in New Jersey. This role is ideal for candidates with field or construction experience who are highly organized, safety-focused, and ready to support the successful execution of Outside Plant (OSP) work.
You'll work closely with utility planners, engineers, contractors, and GIS teams to ensure projects are well-planned, properly coordinated, and completed on schedule. An engineering degree is not required - this role is about strong field coordination, project awareness, and communication.
Responsibilities
  • Support planning and execution of overhead electric distribution construction projects
  • Coordinate with contractors on project scope, schedule, materials, and readiness
  • Conduct pre-construction site walkdowns and field reviews
  • Ensure construction work aligns with utility safety practices, operational requirements, and reliability goals
  • Collaborate with client teams to update GIS data and field prints (including redlines)
  • Assist with outage coordination and contingency planning
  • Track field progress, flag issues, and support resolution
  • Participate in design reviews and cross-functional planning meetings
  • Contribute to lessons learned and continuous improvement initiatives
  • Provide limited after-hours/on-call support as needed during emergencies

Qualifications
  • Minimum 1 year of experience in utility construction, operations, engineering, or field project management
  • Strong understanding of overhead electric distribution work
  • Able to coordinate field activity across multiple job sites and teams
  • Clear communication, organizational, and problem-solving skills
  • Proficient with Microsoft Outlook, Excel, and general project tracking tools
  • Valid U.S. driver's license and reliable transportation to field locations

Preferred (Not Required)
  • Familiarity with utility GIS systems and redlining practices
  • Experience with pole installation and reading electric one-line diagrams
  • Prior work with electric distribution field assets or substations
  • Utility project management or outage planning experience
  • Prior working knowledge of SAP and Ariba.

Why CARIAN?
  • Purpose-driven work - Help deliver the infrastructure that keeps communities powered
  • Industry reputation - Trusted by leading utilities for our reliability and results
  • Career growth - Opportunities to build technical skills and move into advanced PM/CM roles
  • Collaborative culture - Join a team that values hands-on problem solvers and field leadership
  • Competitive total rewards - Competitive pay, full benefits, 401(k) match, and recognition for your impact
