About The Position

The Project Engineer develops, coordinates, and reviews electrical engineering deliverables supporting project design, procurement, construction, and commissioning. Deliverables may include one-line diagrams; wiring and control diagrams; equipment layouts; grounding plans and details; cable and conduit routing and schedules; equipment specifications and datasheets; electrical bills of material; and other project-specific construction documentation. Electrical system design may cover power distribution, switchgear, MCCs, transformers, generators, UPS systems, motors, VFDs, grounding, lighting, and related facility electrical infrastructure. The role also coordinates instrumentation and controls requirements, including control panels, field devices, motor controls, communications, control wiring, and hazardous or classified-area requirements.

The Project Engineer performs and reviews calculations and analyses supporting electrical design. Examples include load studies; transformer and generator sizing; conductor, cable, and conduit sizing; conduit fill; voltage drop; motor and feeder sizing; grounding; equipment sizing and selection; and related electrical analyses. Calculations and design decisions must be documented and developed in accordance with applicable codes and standards, client specifications, project design criteria, manufacturer requirements, and established engineering practices.

The role provides technical review and QA/QC of drawings, calculations, specifications, schedules, bills of material, and vendor documentation for accuracy, completeness, constructability, and compliance with project requirements. Reviews coordinate electrical and controls work with process, mechanical, piping, civil/structural, and other disciplines, and identify and resolve design conflicts, omissions, and technical discrepancies before issue. This is a remote role, but the candidate must be located in the Denver area. The position is exempt and pays $90,000–$110,000 annually.
