About The Position

Booz Allen is seeking an Electrical Engineer to support energy assurance projects and modernization efforts for military installations and Air Force Operations Centers. The role focuses on electric utility power systems, including analyzing distribution systems and utility substations, identifying gaps between existing infrastructure and mission-owner energy requirements, and developing resilient energy solutions. Work includes supporting distributed generation integration, smart-grid and microgrid implementation, renewable energy, and utility investment strategy. The position is hybrid and based at Nellis AFB, Nevada, with travel to fabrication, test, and deployment sites of up to 25%.

Requirements

At least 8 years of experience in electrical power system design, analysis, or engineering.
Experience designing AC power distribution systems at 600 V and below, including service entrances, transformers, switchboards and panelboards, feeders, and branch circuits.
Experience applying the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70), including grounding and bonding, conductor ampacity and derating, overcurrent protection, and transformer and raceway requirements.
Experience performing or reviewing short-circuit, protective-device coordination, and arc-flash studies, including use of IEEE 1584 or NFPA 70E.
Experience with UPS and battery energy storage systems, standby or mobile generators, or source-transfer schemes.
Experience independently managing complex projects and serving as a technical lead on larger multidisciplinary teams.
Ability to interpret, develop, and analyze electrical single-line diagrams, panel schedules, and cable schedules.
Ability to travel to fabrication, test, and deployment sites up to 25% of the time.
Ability to obtain a Secret clearance.
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or Energy Engineering.

Nice To Haves

Experience with HEMP/EMP hardening, including MIL-STD-188-125, TEMPEST, or shielded-enclosure design, power-line filters, and treatment of barrier penetrations.
Experience with mobile, transportable, or tactical power systems, or electrical design of shelters, containers, or skids.
Experience supporting secure-facility (SCIF) electrical design or accreditation and working with DoD infrastructure, facilities, and organizations, including coordination with base civil engineering electrical shops.
Experience with system safety and reliability analysis, such as FMECA MIL-STD-1629, or hazard analysis MIL-STD-882.
Experience with grounding, bonding, and lightning protection for military facilities or electronic systems, including MIL-HDBK-419 and UFC 3-575-01.
Experience writing requirements verification matrices, factory inspection and test plans, or field acceptance test procedures; witnessing tests; releasing designs to fabrication; and reviewing vendor submittals and shop drawings.
Experience with load-flow, short-circuit, or power-system simulation software such as SKM, ETAP, or EasyPower, and with microgrids, renewable integration, or energy-resilience design for military installations.
Experience communicating technical designs and concepts to non-technical audiences.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Master's degree in Engineering or a related field.
Professional Engineering license (P.E.).
