The Power Systems and Coordination Engineer will play a critical role in the design and analysis of electrical systems, particularly focusing on substations and high-voltage power networks. This position requires a comprehensive understanding of electrical engineering principles, particularly in relation to relay and protection systems. The engineer will be responsible for determining effective methods for collecting and analyzing data related to substation components and primary electrical facilities. This includes developing equipment specifications for procurement packages, engaging in detailed design and review processes, and ensuring compliance with NEC, IEEE, NESC standards, and NERC regulations. In addition to design responsibilities, the engineer will review and advise on third-party design documents and procurement lists, ensuring that all project specifications meet the required standards. The role involves performing fault analysis, load flow studies, and relay coordination studies to guarantee system reliability and protection. The engineer will also engage in more complex electrical engineering tasks, such as creating single line and three line diagrams, wiring diagrams, and grounding grid designs, all while adhering to applicable rules and construction permits. The position requires collaboration with Transmission and Distribution Engineers to develop projects that span from 7.2/12.5 kV Distribution to 230 kV Transmission. Familiarity with utility-type primary underground distribution systems and experience in CT/PT metering for renewable energy projects are essential. The engineer will also conduct conductor and ampacity studies, harmonics analysis, and volt dip/volt drop analysis for motor starts. Incorporating sustainable techniques and strategies into the design process is a key aspect of this role, ensuring that all designs account for safety and functionality. The engineer will support senior engineers and project managers with research and recommendations, verify site characteristics, and develop electrical calculations for various load types and equipment sizing.
