Job description

Electrical Engineer - Industrial Power Distribution & Capital Projects

Western Pennsylvania | On-site | Confidential Search

If you can read a single-line diagram, troubleshoot a switchgear issue, and explain why "just replace it" needs a scope and a budget, I'd like to talk with you.

I'm working with a great industrial client in Western Pennsylvania that's investing in its electrical infrastructure. They're looking for an engineer who enjoys owning capital projects from scope through startup and working alongside maintenance when power or equipment issues need hands-on troubleshooting.

What you'll do

• Lead electrical capital projects from scoping and cost estimates through design, procurement, installation, and commissioning. You'll manage the schedule, budget, and contractors along the way.
• Upgrade and troubleshoot industrial power distribution systems, including switchgear, transformers, and motor control centers.
• Lead the site's Electrical Safety Program and partner with EHS on training, arc flash studies, lockout/tagout, and compliance.
• Keep single-line diagrams, schematics, and facility drawings current as systems change.

What I'm looking for

• A bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent. Five or more years of electrical engineering experience is preferred, and we'll consider candidates with four years of relevant industrial experience.
• Strong industrial power distribution experience, proficiency with AutoCAD, and the ability to read electrical schematics and single-line diagrams.
• Experience across low-, medium-, and high-voltage systems is especially valuable. You should be high-voltage qualified or willing to qualify to work on systems up to 25 kV.
• Metals, heavy industrial, or continuous-process manufacturing experience is a plus. Familiarity with NFPA and NEC is valuable. PLC, SCADA, and HMI experience are welcome, and the site has third-party PLC support.

U.S. work authorization is required. Visa sponsorship is unavailable. Access to export-controlled technology may require government authorization.

Apologies in advance: If you do not have the required background, I will not be able to communicate with you right now. I will keep your information for future opportunities and contact you then. Thank you for your understanding.
