This position offers strong growth potential within a large, established power engineering organization with significant project backlog and opportunities for advancement.Responsibilities

Plan, engineer, and design electric distribution systems that support reliable power delivery to residential and commercial customers.
Determine the need, size, location, and timing of power delivery infrastructure developments while considering economic, environmental, social, regulatory, and reliability constraints.
Develop work packages for overhead distribution, underground residential distribution, and underground cable and conduit systems.
Perform field engineering to gather project requirements, verify existing conditions, and identify conflicting utilities or site constraints.
Conduct engineering and design calculations using established procedures, standards, and applicable codes.
Use CAD and other design tools, such as AutoCAD and MicroStation or equivalent programs, to create and update distribution design drawings and documentation.
Support post-construction reviews to confirm that designs meet project requirements and to identify opportunities for improvement.
Collaborate with internal project teams and external utility clients to clarify requirements, resolve design issues, and ensure alignment with project goals.
Follow established engineering procedures, policies, and standards, including relevant codes such as the National Electric Safety Code (NESC) where applicable.
Assist with power distribution and power delivery design tasks involving voltage, transformers, and related distribution equipment.
Communicate clearly with peers, team members, and client representatives to explain technical facts, basic analyses, and design processes.
Perform simple, routine technical problem-solving within a defined scope, escalating more complex issues to experienced engineers as needed.
Support administrative tasks and customer follow-up activities related to design packages, field inspections, and project documentation.
Participate in a mix of field inspections and office or remote design work, ensuring that project schedules and quality expectations are met.
Demonstrate professional communication, dress, and demeanor in all client-facing and team interactions.

Experience supporting projects for electric utilities, power generation owners, or industrial clients.
Ability to apply established engineering methods to develop practical products, solutions, and processes within the power delivery domain.
Interest in professional growth with potential to advance into technical lead roles as experience increases.
Willingness to support work across various parts of the utility industry, including generation, substations, transmission, and distribution.
Openness to future opportunities to support programs in other regions or states as the organization continues to grow.
