Electrical Design Engineer — Utility-Scale Solar & BESS

TAR; Austin (TX); Vor Ort; USD 110.000 - 150.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

TAR is building the world’s first off-grid power plant for data centers powered by renewables. The Electrical Design Engineer will own electrical design documentation: single-line and three-line diagrams, wiring schedules, and system schematics for islanded BTM microgrids.

You size the system, conductors, OCPD, disconnects, and switchgear across MV, LV, and DC collection, and you produce the technical inputs and basis-of-design the Engineer of Record stamps against.

Qualifikationen

• BSEE or related STEM discipline is required.
• 3+ years in utility-scale solar, BESS, or power-systems design with ownership of SLDs/three-lines and equipment sizing.
• Proficiency in CAD (AutoCAD LT, Electrical or similar) and a 3D modeling CAD software (SketchUp).
• Strong understanding of NEC, NESC, IEEE standards; working knowledge of UL 1741-SB, UL 9540/9540A, NFPA 855 for PV and energy-storage integration.
• Conductor, OCPD, disconnect, and switchgear sizing across DC, LV, and MV (34.5 kV class).
• Experience producing basis-of-design and working to or with an Engineer of Record.
• Extreme attention to detail with a bias for speed and rapid iteration.

Aufgaben

• Create and maintain layouts, electrical single-line and three-line diagrams, wiring schedules, and system schematics for islanded BTM microgrids.
• Size conductors, OCPD, disconnects, and switchgear across MV/LV and DC collection in accordance with NEC, UL 1741-SB, UL 9540, NFPA 855.
• Produce the basis-of-design and technical inputs the Engineer of Record requires, and coordinate the EOR's review and stamp.
• Develop equipment layouts and DC collection designs (string/harness, combiner, inverter skid, MV collector) for ground-mount PV + BESS.
• Maintain the drawing set through revisions from design through IFC for procurement, EOR, and field execution from a single source of truth.
• Support OEM technical evaluation (inverter skids, BESS, MV switchgear) with electrical inputs for selection and PO.
• Track FEOC-compliant equipment options where ITC eligibility is at stake.
• Nice to have: MV collector/switchgear/substation-adjacent design exposure (up to 500kV).
• Nice to have: islanded, off-grid, or BTM microgrid experience.
• Nice to have: grid-forming vs grid-following inverter architecture knowledge.
