What you will be doing


The I & E Supervisor (High Voltage) leads a specialized team of instrumentation and electrical technicians responsible for the safe operation, maintenance, and testing of medium- and high-voltage electrical equipment across midstream facilities. Beyond day-to-day supervision, this role carries a strategic mandate to build and grow an in-house high-voltage testing capability by transitioning the team from writing permits and coordinating third-party testing contractors toward directly performing medium- and high-voltage electrical testing.
The successful candidate will assess current team capabilities, develop technician skills and qualifications, standardize testing procedures and equipment, and progressively reduce reliance on external testing contractors — all while strengthening equipment reliability, personnel safety, and regulatory compliance. Responsibilities include, but are not limited to


Responsibilities


  • Leadership & Team Development

  • Lead, coach, and develop a team of high-voltage I&E technicians; set performance expectations, provide feedback, and build long-term bench strength.

  • Assess current team capabilities against the skills required to perform MV/HV testing, and build a structured training, qualification, and mentoring roadmap.

  • Grow the group as scope and staffing expand; foster a culture of ownership, safety, and accountability.

  • Provide training and technical support to technicians and cross-functional partners.


Electrical Equipment Testing Capability


  • Establish standardized testing procedures, methods, and acceptance criteria aligned with NETA MTS and NFPA 70B condition-based maintenance practices.

  • Develop a standardized equipment testing program — insulation resistance, power factor / tan delta, VLF, transformer turns ratio, contact and winding resistance, and protective relay testing (primary and secondary injection).

  • Develop technician qualification programs so all testing is performed safely by qualified personnel under a clear competency standard.

  • Progressively reduce reliance on external testing contractors while maintaining reliability, safety, and schedule, retaining contractor support strategically where it makes sense.


Maintenance, Reliability & Compliance


  • Oversee installation, troubleshooting, testing, and maintenance of MV/HV equipment — substations, switchgear, breakers, transformers, protective relays, substation and branch feeders, variable frequency drives, and associated controls.

  • Implement and maintain preventive and condition-based maintenance programs, aligning PM intervals with NFPA 70B.

  • Champion electrical safety; ensure compliance with NFPA 70E and applicable codes, proper permitting, lockout/tagout, and safe work practices.

  • Interpret and maintain P&IDs, one-line diagrams, and complex electrical drawings; ensure drawings and documentation are kept current.


Planning & Coordination


  • Coordinate and prioritize testing and maintenance activities with Operations to maximize equipment availability and minimize unplanned downtime.

  • Plan and schedule outages, turnarounds, and testing campaigns; manage workload, priorities, callouts, and overtime.

  • Support budget development and cost control, capturing savings as in-house capability reduces contractor spend.

  • Communicate effectively with technicians, Operations, Engineering, and third-party stakeholders at all levels of the organization.


Qualifications – Required

What your background should look like (minimum qualifications)



  • High school diploma or G.E.D. equivalent.

  • Minimum 7+ years of electrical and instrumentation experience, including medium- and/or high-voltage equipment, preferably in an energy-related industry.

  • Minimum 2+ years in a supervisory, lead, or crew-leadership role, or demonstrated leadership of technical teams.

  • Thorough knowledge of electrical codes and familiarity with AC voltage (120–480V) three-phase and single-phase plus 24 VDC; working knowledge of medium- and high-voltage systems.

  • Working knowledge of NFPA 70E electrical safety practices.

  • Ability to read and interpret P&IDs, one-lines, blueprints, work permits, and technical instruction manuals.

  • Basic computer skills (MS Word, Excel) for creating and updating work records and reports.

  • Valid driver’s license and acceptable driving record.


Qualifications – Preferred


  • Graduation from a technical trade school, apprenticeship, certification, or associate degree program in instrumentation, electrical, or related studies.

  • Journeyman electrical designation highly preferred.

  • Hands-on MV/HV electrical testing experience (insulation resistance, power factor / tan delta, VLF, TTR, contact resistance, protective relay testing).

  • Familiarity with NETA testing standards and NFPA 70B condition-based maintenance.

  • Experience building, scaling, or insourcing a testing program or maintenance team.

  • Experience with DCS/PLC systems, VFDs, protective relaying, and substation equipment.


Attributes


  • Takes initiative, is proactive in addressing issues, and completes tasks efficiently.

  • Communicates effectively in writing and verbally, and adapts style to influence, persuade, negotiate, and engage.

  • Assumes responsibility, prioritizes, and responds to multiple tasks under potentially stressful and/or hazardous conditions.

  • Demonstrates conscientiousness, dependability, and commitment to the role, team, and company; works effectively in a fast-paced environment with less definition, policy, and bureaucracy.
