Job description

$150,000-180,000 base + bonus!

We're partnered with a highly respected, fast-growing engineering consultancy that’s built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality transmission and distribution solutions across the U.S. This is a people-first organization where engineers are supported, given flexibility, and trusted to do their best work.

They’re currently looking to bring on a Transmission & Distribution Engineering Manager to lead a team supporting utility line design projects.

Location

• Fully remote (U.S.-based)
• Ideal candidates located in central or eastern time zones

What You’ll Be Doing

• Lead and manage a team of engineers and designers working on transmission and distribution line design projects
• Oversee project delivery to ensure quality, timelines, and client expectations are consistently met
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship, including QA/QC oversight and engineering best practices
• Coordinate closely with internal teams and utility clients to track project progress and resolve challenges
• Review and approve design packages across a variety of voltage levels, scopes, and structure types
• Support resource planning and project staffing across active workstreams
• Partner with leadership on team development, growth initiatives, and new project opportunities
• Participate in client-facing discussions, presentations, and business development efforts as needed

What They’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering
• 7+ years of experience in transmission and/or distribution line engineering
• Strong background in utility line design projects
• Hands-on experience with PLS-CADD and related tools (PoleForeman, SPIDAcalc, or similar)
• Familiarity with industry standards such as NESC, IEEE, RUS, ASCE, and ACI
• Proven ability to lead, mentor, and develop engineering teams
• P.E. license strongly preferred

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Fully remote flexibility with a focus on work-life balance
• Strong leadership team and collaborative engineering culture
• Clear path for growth into senior leadership or technical specialization
• Competitive compensation, benefits, and long‑term support (including development and training)
• Opportunity to make a real impact on utility infrastructure projects across the U.S.
