Original job description

The energy industry is undergoing rapid and dramatic changes, transforming the utility landscape to enhance safety, reliability and sustainability. In response, Jacobs is expanding its Transmission & Distribution (T&D) operations in North America and is looking for a Principal Substation Engineer in its Energy & Power Group to tackle the complexities of decarbonization and utility modernization to deliver a cleaner and more secure energy future.

As a Substation Engineer, you will be working closely with our regional and global Transmission & Distribution (T&D) delivery teams to support our utility/developer clients and operations teams as we expand our energy transition portfolio. You will play a crucial role in directly interfacing with utility/developer clients on development of Substation design deliverables for utility upgrades including greenfield/brownfield & AIS/GIS substations, offshore wind facilities, and developer interconnection facilities. Prior experience in the design of utility transmission and distribution systems will be highly regarded.

In addition, with evolving needs during energy transition, Jacobs is often called upon as program managers to deliver the major programs and overhauls of the T&D networks. You will provide engineering overview, expertise, and direction while acting as an independent technical advisor representing owner's interests.

The successful candidate shall demonstrate relevant experience and technical knowledge in Substation Design applied to transmission and distribution projects for utilities and developers. You will be in a client interfacing position and will be responsible for understanding the client standards, provide feedback on the application and be able to develop Substation design deliverables fully and independently as required for the projects on-time and within the budget. You may also be called upon to act as an Owner’s consultant/ Owner’s Engineer (OC/OE).

As a Substation Engineer within the group, you will mentor team members across North America and globally with Jacobs Global Integrated Delivery (GID). Your will be working with a cross functional team to both support the sales and proposal preparation process for new contracts and the committed high-quality delivery of those services to the client.

Involvement with professional societies such as the IEEE, PES and similar including interest in participating in industry conferences, seminars, trade shows, and networking events to promote company services and stay updated on industry innovations and advancements is a plus.
