Job description

You’re the engineer people call when electrical reliability actually matters.

If you enjoy improving systems instead of constantly reacting to failures, this opportunity puts you in the middle of maintaining and improving critical electrical infrastructure supporting industrial operations. You’ll work with operations, maintenance, and contractors to solve real reliability challenges while helping keep the facility running safely.

You’ll spend your time supporting electrical equipment outages, improving the reliability of power distribution systems, coordinating contractors, developing condition-based maintenance programs, reviewing Management of Change (MOC) packages, maintaining electrical drawings, and helping implement recommendations from arc flash studies. You’ll have the opportunity to work independently while partnering with operations and maintenance teams on projects that directly impact plant performance.

What you get is a long‑term contract opportunity paying $48–52/hour, a standard 40‑hour workweek, up to 25% travel, and the chance to work on electrical infrastructure supporting natural gas operations. If you enjoy being trusted with meaningful engineering work rather than being micromanaged, this role offers plenty of ownership.

You’ll probably enjoy this role if you’re the type of engineer who naturally looks for ways to improve reliability, values safe operations, and likes balancing field work with engineering analysis. You’re comfortable working across disciplines and communicating with contractors, operations, and maintenance teams.
