10–15 years of progressive experience in electrical engineering design, with significant experience leading cable routing and raceway design; nuclear experience is preferred.
Demonstrated ability to lead routing and raceway scope for quality, schedule, and coordination, and to provide technical direction to junior engineers.
Working knowledge of codes, standards, and engineering practices relevant to cable routing and raceway design, including routing separation, cable tray and conduit practices, grounding and bonding, fire-protection interfaces, and constructability.
Proficiency in a 3D plant design environment, with experience performing or directing routing development in SP3D or equivalent and a strong ability to ramp up quickly.
Strong technical writing and communication skills, including the ability to coordinate with multidisciplinary teams and external stakeholders.
Strong planning, prioritization, and organizational skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and deliver results.

Nice To Haves

Master’s degree.

Experience coordinating routing and penetration interfaces with civil/structural, mechanical, piping/HVAC, I&C, and systems engineering.
Experience supporting procurement and vendor submittal reviews that affect routing and raceway, including equipment interfaces, installation constraints, and vendor routing limitations.
Experience supporting construction execution, including walkdowns, constructability reviews, field change support, and installation sequencing coordination.
Familiarity with related tools and workflows used with SP3D delivery, such as model review tools, cable schedule databases, and configuration management or document control processes.

Responsibilities

Lead cable routing design for the SMR-300 plant across electrical power, I&C, and communications systems.
Develop routing approaches and coordinate design criteria and inputs, including separation, fire-area routing, congestion management, constructability, and maintainability.
Execute or oversee raceway design, including cable tray and conduit layouts, routing constraints, and installation considerations.
Provide raceway sizing inputs, including tray fill and sizing, conduit sizing, routing quantities, and support needs as required by the project workflow.
Coordinate and own penetration locations, routing paths, and interfaces with civil/structural and other disciplines, ensuring routing is consistent with building and structural constraints.
Produce and review routing layouts, design notes and details, routing reports, model-based outputs, and design change documentation, ensuring technical accuracy and quality.
Perform or oversee cable routing and raceway layout work in SmartPlant 3D (SP3D).
Lead or participate in model reviews, resolve clashes and congestion, and ensure routing supports downstream construction and installation sequencing.
Provide technical direction, mentoring, and quality oversight for entry-level engineers supporting cable routing and raceway deliverables.
Review and check work products for compliance with project requirements, applicable codes and standards, and internal procedures.
Support construction and field execution as needed, including RFI responses and routing conflict resolution.
