Design junction boxes and panel layouts, including part selection and sizing of panel equipment (relays, circuit breakers, switches, pushbuttons, etc.). Design facility-support systems, including networks (fiber and copper), CCTV, VoIP, and control consoles. Design DC and AC power distribution systems including integration with power substations.
Scope, Schedule, Budget - Perform control account management tasks maintaining schedule and budget within Electrical/Controls engineering scope. Lead team and create deliverables to ensure system design aligns with as-sold scope, customer requirements, quality standards, and industry codes. Communicate regularly with project team on status, issues, and variances to plan.
Document & Present - Document and present work in accordance with quality requirements. Prepare design criteria, calculation packages, procurement specifications, technical reports, validation plans, and product manuals. Participate and lead internal and customer design reviews. Present major designs or design changes to internal engineering review board.
Support - Interface with procurement, production, and installation teams to quickly resolve issues discovered during assembly and test. Travel to customer and subcontractor sites for design reviews, site surveys, and system commissioning.
