Demonstrated technical aptitude for the design, maintenance, and operation of industrial or commercial building electrical systems (e.g., power distribution, protection, lighting, controls).
Experience in project planning, engineering, and execution (scope development, estimates, design coordination, installation, and launch).
Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills, with the ability to break down complex issues and drive to root cause.
Strong interpersonal, teamwork, and communication skills (verbal and written) with the ability to work effectively with skilled trades, contractors, engineers, operations, and leadership.
Demonstrated commitment to electrical safety and safe work practices.
Willingness and ability to support a manufacturing operation, including occasional off‑shift, weekend, and shutdown support as required by the business.
What Will Give You a Competitive Edge
Master’s degree, PE license, or relevant professional certifications in electrical engineering, power systems, or industrial facilities.
Experience with High voltage substations, medium‑voltage (e.g., 13.2 kV) and low‑voltage distribution systems in an industrial environment.
Working knowledge of NFPA 70/70E and related electrical codes and standards.
Experience with arc‑flash analysis, labeling, and mitigation.
Experience with AutoCAD or similar tools for electrical drawings.
