8+ years Electrical Engineering, BS Electrical Engineering, medium-voltage power distribution, Industrial EPC/design, electrical power systems, IEEE/NEC/NESC, ETAP/EasyPower/SKM, grounding & protection/coordination studies, project leadership, preferably Oil & Gas and PE.


*Medium Voltage


*Electrical Engineer degree


*Industrial EPC, design + medium voltage, electrical-focused (not primarily instrumentation & controls).

• They support projects end-to-end on the engineering/design side (including early studies/proposals), then may support once projects move to site (client has sister construction companies, but the engineering team itself isn't based at job sites).
• Seniors act as discipline leads on project teams (electrical lead for a project), and may support multiple projects depending on size/duration
• Client is "fully stacked" on instrumentation & controls; they're looking for true electrical.
