Original job description

Electrical Relay Engineer - Entry Level Looking to build a career in the electric utility industry? This Electrical Relay Engineer role offers the opportunity to develop specialized expertise in substation protection and control systems while working alongside experienced engineers in a collaborative environment.In this role, you'll support the engineering and design of protection relaying for new and existing substations, assisting with relay protection and control design, engineering studies, project documentation, system analysis, and field support activities. Through hands-on experience and a structured career development program, you'll continue building your technical skills while contributing to critical infrastructure projects.What You'll Do

Apply engineering, planning, and organizational skills to support protection and control engineering activities for substation projects.
Perform engineering calculations involving substation systems, relay protection, and control schemes.
Assist in the planning, design, and construction management of substation projects, including relay protection and control systems.
Support experienced engineers in performing root cause analyses of relay system failures.
Work under the guidance of experienced engineers while learning established engineering and construction standards, industry nomenclature, and utility guidelines.
Participate in a structured career development program designed to support technical and professional growth.
Help maintain substation protective relay design standards and related information systems.
Assist storm teams and system operations personnel in restoring electric service during outages and severe weather events.
Complete technical research, data analysis, and recommendation projects for engineering leadership.
Collaborate with relay engineers, testing groups, telecom teams, and dispatch/control room engineers to resolve protection and control issues.
Utilize AutoCAD and protection analysis software to support relay design, documentation, and system studies.
Perform other engineering and technical duties that support substation protection and control operations.
