Electrical I&C Engineer

Insight Global; Lynchburg (VA); On-site; USD 80,000 - 120,000; Full time

Job summary

Insight Global is seeking a SolidWorks CAD Designer to model and draft fire-protection equipment, I&C enclosures, sensors, and related mechanical components, translating specifications into 3D models and drawings.

The role emphasizes mechanical representation of electrical equipment over schematic design, with collaboration across mechanical, electrical I&C, and fire-protection engineers to apply GD&T and revision-control standards.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Controls Engineering, Nuclear Engineering, or a closely related technical discipline.
• At least five years of experience supporting instrumentation, controls, electrical controls, automation, or safety-related systems.
• Experience reviewing technical requirements, control-system descriptions, software-requirement specifications, or implementation documents.
• Working knowledge of control-system functions such as set points, alarms, permissives, interlocks, equipment states, and operability requirements.
• Experience working in a nuclear, power-generation, defense, aerospace, or other safety-related environment.
• Ability to perform detailed, task-focused document reviews and clearly document discrepancies, comments, and recommended corrections.
• Commercial nuclear, DOE nuclear facility, or advanced-reactor project experience.
• Experience reviewing safety-related or quality-affecting software and control-system requirements.
• Familiarity with nuclear quality-assurance, configuration-management, and document-control requirements.
• Experience translating functional or system-level descriptions into implementation-level requirements.
• Previous experience with independent verification, two-person review, or comparable quality-review practices.
• Ability to work independently while escalating questions through an established technical lead.

Responsibilities

• Translate engineering specifications into complete 3D models and production-quality drawings.
• Evaluate component fit, mounting, clearances, and interfaces.
• Collaborate with electrical I&C and fire-protection engineers to incorporate feedback and design changes.
• Maintain drafting standards and revision-control requirements.
• Review safety-related or quality-affecting software and control-system requirements.

Job description

Job Description

Insight Global is looking for a SolidWorks CAD Designer to support a client project by providing independent modeling and drafting support for fire-protection equipment, electrical I&C enclosures, sensors, connectors, connection boxes, mounting arrangements, and related mechanical components. Using SolidWorks, this individual will translate engineering specifications and preliminary concepts into complete 3D models and production-quality drawings while applying established drafting standards, GD&T, and revision-control requirements. The designer will independently evaluate component fit, mounting, clearances, mechanical interfaces, manufacturability, and overall design integration while working closely with mechanical, electrical I&C, and fire-protection engineers to incorporate technical feedback and design changes. Approximately 60% of the work will support electrical applications, but the position is focused on the physical and mechanical representation of electrical equipment rather than electrical schematic design. Salary ranges from 80K-120k depending on experience.

Skills and Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Controls Engineering, Nuclear Engineering, or a closely related technical discipline.


• At least five years of experience supporting instrumentation, controls, electrical controls, automation, or safety-related systems.


• Experience reviewing technical requirements, control-system descriptions, software-requirement specifications, or implementation documents.
