  • Oversee multiple concurrent EPC projects, ensuring compliance with NEC, NFPA, environmental regulations, and local/state codes.
  • Collaborate with design teams and OEMs to produce construction-ready drawing packages and specifications.
  • Support construction activities by responding to RFIs, reviewing submittals, and providing field engineering support.
  • Participate in constructability reviews, HAZOPs, and design reviews to ensure safe and efficient project execution.
  • Lead electrical input into facility layout, focusing on safety, accessibility, and installation efficiency.
  • Serve as a technical representative during client meetings, project kickoffs, and progress reviews.
  • Utilize AutoCAD to review and update electrical drawings, redlines, and as-built documentation.
  • Identify opportunities to improve engineering processes, standardization, and project execution efficiency within the EPC framework.
  • Maintain strong coordination with suppliers and subcontractors to ensure timely delivery and compliance of electrical equipment.
  • Evaluate new technologies and vendors to enhance system performance and reduce project costs.
  • Support R&D and value engineering efforts to optimize designs without compromising safety or quality.
  • Ensure all electrical designs meet company standards, client specifications, and contractual obligations.
  • Coordinate outsourced engineering services and ensure quality and consistency across all disciplines.
  • Attend and lead project kickoff meetings to confirm scope, roles, and execution strategy.
  • Provide commissioning and startup support, ensuring proper installation, testing, and operation of electrical systems.
