A Snapshot of Your Day

Begin by reviewing your daily task planner and the technical requirements for your assigned projects and proposals. Depending on project needs, your activities may include performing electrical power system studies, such as short-circuit, load-flow, protective device coordination, harmonic, motor-starting, and arc-flash analyses, as well as translate into the physical solution developing 2D or 3D electrical room layouts using AutoCAD or equivalent design software. Your deliverables will follow the project schedule and may include study reports, equipment arrangements, room views, and cable routing layouts.

During your activities, you may also support initiatives aimed at improving engineering processes and standardizing power system analysis methods, electrical room layouts, and reusable design solutions.

How You’ll Make an Impact

Execute customized power system analysis and physical electrical design solutions under minimal supervision using local and global design standards, industry standards, and engineering best practices.
Perform electrical studies, including short-circuit, load-flow, protective device coordination, harmonic, motor-starting, voltage-drop, and arc-flash analyses, and translate the results into practical engineering recommendations.
Develop 2D and 3D electrical room layouts using AutoCAD or equivalent software, including equipment distribution, floor plans, elevations, sections, access and maintenance clearances, cable tray or conduit routes, and cable entry and exit points.
Integrate medium- and low-voltage equipment into electrical room designs and coordinate interfaces with structural, mechanical, HVAC, fire protection, automation, manufacturing, field service, and other engineering disciplines.
Prepare project-specific documentation, including study reports, calculation files, system and functional descriptions, equipment and cable schedules, drawing packages, and test and commissioning procedures.
Provide engineering support to Sales, Bid Management, Project Management, Manufacturing, Field Service, and Quality from proposal through execution, commissioning, and service, while supporting the development and standardization of reusable engineering solutions.

What You Bring

BS Engineering required in a relevant field, with Electrical, Electromechanical, or Mechatronics Engineering preferred.
4+ years of relevant industrial or marine experience, with practical knowledge of power system studies such as short-circuit, load-flow, protective device coordination, harmonic, motor-starting, voltage-drop, and arc-flash analyses.
Ability to read and develop single-line diagrams, schematics, equipment layouts, cable routing drawings, and technical documentation, and to interpret customer specifications and applicable standards.
Experience with medium- and low-voltage systems, including switchgear, switchboards, MCCs, transformers, VFDs, and related equipment under IEC or UL standards; working knowledge of ETAP, DIgSILENT PowerFactory, EasyPower, SKM PowerTools, or equivalent software is preferred.
Strong ability in AutoCAD or equivalent software for 2D and 3D modeling of electrical rooms, including equipment arrangements, room views, access and maintenance clearances, and cable routing.
Strong organization and time management skills, with the flexibility to work across power system studies and physical electrical design assignments. Strong verbal and written English communication skills are required.
