Job description

Overview

Who We Are. Chevron is one of the world’s leading energy companies—providing oil, gas and lower‑carbon technologies across the entire energy value chain. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Chevron operates globally.

What You’ll Actually Do

Electrical and Instrumentation & Control Engineers support operating facilities and projects by applying technical engineering knowledge and project‑management skills. These areas of support may include:

• Optimizing facilities to deliver maximum value safely and reliably.
• Providing technical engineering support for turnarounds and projects.
• Developing and/or deploying industry‑leading technologies to reduce carbon, increase efficiency and maximize returns.
• Using digitalization and data analytics to improve process operations and safety.

Entry‑level Electrical Engineers will be enrolled in Chevron’s Horizons Program, an early‑career development program that combines formal training, on‑the‑job competency development, mentoring and multiple job assignments. Engineers are admitted to either an Electrical Systems development track or an Instrumentation & Controls development path to build a core technical foundation for their career. These roles support activities ranging from process control networks and process automation systems to optimize plants, operating large power systems and generators, assuring power system integrity and reliability, and monitoring power systems for efficient power management.

Horizons engineers typically complete the development program in their first five years of employment and may have the opportunity to work in multiple locations during that time. After graduating, engineers may continue in roles aligned with their Horizons track or may choose to focus on one of the following specialized fields:

• Reliability & Integrity Engineering – focused on asset integrity, reliability, maintainability and operability of operating assets.
• Technical Safety Engineering – identify hazards, assess risk and develop mitigation strategies through application of engineering design principles.
• Subsea Engineering – design, construction, integration, testing and installation of subsea equipment, controls, umbilicals and pipelines; also includes well intervention and production optimization.
• Engineering Design & Projects – deliver high‑quality designs and predictable execution of projects through sound engineering and design principles.
• General Facilities Engineering – support operating facilities through broad technical knowledge and small‑project execution skills.

What You Must Have

• Students completing the last year of bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering; or individuals with a bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering and two years or less directly related work experience.
• Strong academic performance in core programs, communication, leadership, teamwork and problem‑solving skills.
• Position may require driving on a routine basis.
• Ability to demonstrate The Chevron Way.

Compensation & Benefits

The anticipated salary range for this position is $108,000 – $136,300. Compensation will be determined by degree level and discipline. Chevron offers competitive compensation and benefits programs, including variable pay, health care coverage, retirement plan, protection coverage, time off and leave programs, training and development opportunities and a range of allowances.
