Original job description

Responsibilities

This position will offer you the ability to directly apply your knowledge of protective relaying and controls systems for HV and EHV substations. As a Lead Substation Engineer, you will:

Work on a wide range of substation modifications and upgrades to support client requirements and reviews including creating calculations, document designs, and specifications.
Prepare relaying philosophies, including selecting relay, control, and communications equipment, developing SCADA and telecommunication concepts and configurations, and overseeing the preparation of I/O assignments and connection diagrams.
Guide junior and senior-level engineers and designers in protection and controls engineering design efforts, including providing guidance with the coordination of detailed design phases for all aspects of the engineering work.
Support challenging assignments that include investigating, trouble-shooting, and solving a wide variety of engineering issues.
Perform analysis and design of single line diagrams, substation relaying & metering diagrams (i.e. A.C. schematic diagrams), and D.C. Schematic diagrams.
Prepare engineering studies for client and peer review.
Perform independent reviews of work performed by others including calculations and drawing preparation.
Coordinate and provide guidance to other engineers, project managers, client personnel, and suppliers to ensure a complete and timely design.
Perform reviews of existing facilities to propose upgrades and replacements, and present findings and recommendations to clients and peers.
Develop your career via peer-learning through sharing of knowledge with other experienced engineers by way of Sargent & Lundy’s systems of process and associated “Communities of Practice.”
Provide guidance as a mentor in the development of less experienced engineers.
There is the potential for you to travel to client and vendor offices for design reviews and to plant site locations for construction coordination and field verification of designs.

This role offers a hybrid work arrangement, with the expectation of spending three days a week in the office, giving you the flexibility to work remotely for two days.

Dependent upon your location, this opportunity offers a generous relocation package.

Experience with serving as firm/client liaison in a support or lead engineering role.
Experience in writing and providing support documentation for relay calculations.
Experience with the design techniques, tools, and principles involved in the production of technical plans, blueprints, drawings, and models.
Proficiency with any of the following programs: SKM, ETAP, ASPEN, CDEGS, or vendor software.
Familiarity with design codes and standards, such as NEC, NESC, NEMA, IEEE and ANSI.
Experience with various vendor protective relay equipment typically used in substation protection, including SEL, ABB, GE, Areva, and Basler.
Proficiency with MS Office applications.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Valued but not required skills and experience:

A Bachelor of Science Electrical Engineering degree is preferrable.
A degree from an ABET accredited engineering program.
Prior experience is desirable to include in-line, bus and equipment protection, breaker, transformer and similar equipment control, RTU and data concentrator based SCADA systems, telemetering and communications (fiber optics, microwave, power line carrier, etc.).
AutoCAD or MicroStation experience.
Construction and start-up experience.
Testing or commissioning experience.
