About The Position

AECOM is seeking an initiative-taking Electrical Engineer with an electrical engineering background to work from its Denver, Colorado office, supporting mining projects in their planning and design phases. Candidates with industrial electrical engineering experience outside the mining field may also be considered. The engineer performs moderate portions of broader engineering assignments, gathers and correlates engineering data, and completes detailed or routine calculations and designs using established procedures. The role involves independently completing primary design elements, preparing electrical equipment sizing calculation packages and technical reports, and contributing to conceptual studies, load assessments, equipment selection, datasheets, and general arrangements. The engineer also supports specifications, technical bid analyses, and vendor drawing reviews, ensuring work meets project requirements, budgets, and schedules. The position includes coordinating and directing staff on multidisciplinary design efforts and working with existing and potential clients to develop electrical engineering and design solutions for mining projects. The employee is expected to work with little supervision, communicate effectively, and provide guidance to entry-level engineers. Travel to domestic and international project locations may be required. Relocation and sponsorship are not provided.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering and at least 4 years of relevant experience, or demonstrated equivalent experience and/or education in electrical engineering.
Valid U.S. driver's license and ability to pass a Motor Vehicles Records check in accordance with company policy.
Ability to work independently with minimal supervision and complete multiple technical tasks under tight deadlines.
Strong written and oral communication, quantitative, and people skills.
Strong work ethic and professional demeanor.
Resourcefulness, organization, professionalism, and attention to detail and people.
