As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you’ll lead the electrical design and technical development of utility-scale energy projects while supporting both preconstruction and proposal efforts. You’ll spend time reviewing client RFPs, developing conceptual and detailed electrical designs, evaluating third-party engineering proposals, and identifying technical risks and opportunities that impact project cost, constructability, and execution. Throughout the day, you'll collaborate closely with estimators, CAD designers, supply chain teams, and engineering partners to ensure proposals are accurate, competitive, and aligned with client requirements. Projects may include battery energy storage systems (BESS), substations, underground collection systems, SCADA and communication networks, transmission lines, and solar PV infrastructure. In addition to technical design work, you'll mentor engineers, provide guidance on engineering standards and best practices, and help manage multiple projects and proposal deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
