Position Summary

We’re looking for an Senior Electrical Engineer to serve as the technical owner of mission-critical power distribution projects, from design kickoff through commissioning and closeout.

This is a customer-facing project engineering role. You will own projects from kick to close and know the design inside and out: the customer’s requirements, the system architecture, and the sequence of operation. You’ll make sure every engineering deliverable is met, and you’ll be the technical point of contact for the customer, project managers, manufacturing, and field teams once the design is complete.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as the customer’s technical point of contact from kickoff through turnover
• Translate customer requirements and specifications into a clear technical scope; confirm design intent with Design Engineering
• Own the engineering deliverables schedule — drawings, submittals, studies, sequences of operation, and O&M documentation — and drive approval cycles to closure
• Understand system architecture and sequence of operation well enough to answer customer, manufacturing, and field questions without a redesign
• Manage RFIs, technical clarifications, and engineering changes; evaluate scope and schedule impact with the Project Manager
• Provide technical oversight during manufacturing and modular integration of:
  • Low and medium-voltage switchgear and switchboards
  • UPS, battery, and ATS systems
  • Electrical distribution and control equipment
• Witness factory acceptance testing (FAT); verify compliance with specifications, approved drawings, and applicable codes and standards
• Provide engineering support during site delivery, installation, energization, startup, and commissioning
• Review Quality Control documentation for technical acceptability and accuracy
• Capture lessons learned and contribute to project engineering standards, procedures, and checklists

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years in electrical power systems, project engineering, manufacturing oversight, or commissioning
• Bachelor’s in Electrical Engineering (or a related field)
• Strong working knowledge of MV/LV switchgear, switchboards, UPS, ATS, and generator systems
• Ability to read and interpret one-lines, schematics, and sequences of operation
• Experience managing submittals, RFIs, and engineering changes with customers and manufacturers
• Strong understanding of electrical QA/QC, FAT, and commissioning processes
• Clear communicator who can manage multiple active projects and represent engineering to customers

Preferred Qualifications

• Mission-critical, data center, or modular electrical systems experience
• Familiarity with NEC, NFPA 70E, IEEE, UL, NEMA, and NETA standards
• Computer-Aided Design program proficiency (REVIT, AutoCAD, Solidworks)
• Commissioning, energization planning, and hands-on troubleshooting experience
• PE license or EIT certification; company sponsorship available for PE licensure

Work Environment

A mix of office-based project work and travel to manufacturer facilities, modular integration facilities, and customer sites during FAT, delivery, startup, and commissioning. Expect approximately 25–40% travel, varying with project load. Field work may involve climbing, lifting, and active industrial or construction environments, plus occasional extended hours or weekend work to meet customer commitments.
