4d•$100,561 - $145,814

About The Position

As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you'll play a key role in delivering safe, reliable, and innovative engineering solutions across utility-scale renewable energy projects. Depending on your background and interests, you'll support projects during either the preconstruction/estimating phase or project execution phase, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to deliver high-quality engineering solutions from concept through construction. A typical day may involve developing electrical designs, reviewing engineering packages, supporting utility interconnections, coordinating with Owners and Engineers of Record (EOR), evaluating constructability, and solving complex technical challenges across multiple concurrent projects. You'll work closely with Engineering, Estimating, Integrated Supply Chain, Construction, and Project Management to ensure designs are safe, economical, constructible, and aligned with client requirements. Whether you're supporting Solar Project Engineering, Wind Estimating Engineering, or Battery Energy Storage Estimating Engineering, you'll contribute to projects that include underground collection systems, substations, transmission interconnections, protection and control systems, power quality studies, SCADA and communications, and utility-scale renewable energy infrastructure.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from an ABET-accredited college.
Engineer-in-Training (EIT) or Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) certification required, or ability to obtain within one year of hire.
Four or more years of progressive electrical engineering experience supporting utility-scale power generation, renewable energy, industrial, EPC, or heavy infrastructure projects.
Experience managing multiple engineering priorities while collaborating across multidisciplinary teams.

Nice To Haves

Experience supporting utility-scale solar, wind, or battery energy storage (BESS) projects.
Strong knowledge of underground collection systems, substations, transmission interconnections, protection and control systems, SCADA, power quality, load flow analysis, and electrical equipment sizing.
Experience in either Estimating Engineering (preconstruction) or Project Engineering (project execution), or a combination of both.
Experience collaborating with Owners, Engineers of Record (EOR), utilities, EPC partners, and construction teams throughout the engineering lifecycle.
Passion for solving complex engineering challenges, mentoring junior engineers, and continuously improving engineering quality and project delivery.

Responsibilities

Develop electrical engineering solutions supporting utility-scale renewable energy projects through either estimating or project execution.
Lead electrical design development, Basis of Design (BOD) documentation, engineering reviews, RFIs, and technical deliverables throughout the project lifecycle.
Review electrical one-line diagrams, protection and control systems, grounding plans, cable routing, equipment layouts, and third-party engineering packages to ensure quality and compliance.
Collaborate with Owners, Engineers of Record (EOR), Estimating, Project Engineering, Integrated Supply Chain, and Construction teams to deliver safe, reliable, and cost-effective designs.
Support utility interconnections, electrical equipment selection, procurement strategies, and technical submittal reviews.
Perform quantity takeoffs, constructability reviews, value engineering, and technical risk assessments that improve project execution and proposal competitiveness.
Mentor Engineer I, Engineer II, and CAD Designers through technical guidance, coaching, and engineering best practices.
Manage multiple concurrent projects while maintaining engineering quality, schedule commitments, and client expectations.
Support continuous improvement by identifying opportunities to strengthen engineering standards, workflows, and design quality.
