Senior Power Systems Engineer

Overview e2Companies is seeking a Senior Power Systems Engineer to provide technical leadership in the design, integration, and commissioning of distributed generation systems, medium- and low-voltage switchgear, and industrial control platforms. This role serves as design authority for generator paralleling systems, protection philosophy, and integrated control architecture. The Senior Power Systems Engineer collaborates with engineering, construction, controls, and project teams to deliver safe, reliable, and code-compliant utility-interactive power solutions. The ideal candidate has deep experience with generator synchronization, load shedding strategies, protective relaying, microgrid control systems, and medium-voltage distribution, and is comfortable leading both office-based design and field-based commissioning activities. Job Purpose Full-time, on-site employment at our Bonita Springs, Florida headquarters. Relocation assistance is available for qualified candidates willing to relocate to Southwest Florida. Responsibilities Engineering and Design Lead electrical design of on-site generation systems including diesel, natural gas, CHP, hybrid, and renewable-integrated systems. Develop and approve single-line diagrams, three-line diagrams, control schematics, and interconnection drawings. Serve as design authority for generator paralleling systems, synchronization strategies, and load shedding schemes. Develop protection philosophy including overcurrent, differential, reverse power, sync-check, and coordination strategies. Specify and design medium-voltage and low-voltage switchgear, paralleling gear, transfer switches, and motor control centers. Review short-circuit, coordination, arc flash, load flow, and transient stability studies using industry software. Serve as technical mentor to junior engineers and support proposal development and technical client presentations. Controls and Automation Architect PLC- and relay-based control systems for generator paralleling, load shedding, and microgrid applications, with preference for Allen Bradley platforms. Develop control narratives, sequence-of-operations documentation, and I/O lists. Integrate SCADA, HMI, and industrial communication protocols including Modbus, DNP3, IEC 61850, and Ethernet/IP. Interface automation platforms with integrated e2 product lines. Commissioning and Field Leadership Lead Factory Acceptance Testing and Site Acceptance Testing of switchgear and control systems. Oversee commissioning of generation assets and utility interconnections. Interface directly with utilities and Authorities Having Jurisdiction for interconnection approvals. Troubleshoot protection, synchronization, and automation systems in live operating environments. Ensure designs comply with NEC, NFPA 70, IEEE 1547, IEEE C37 series, UL 891, UL 1558, UL 508A, and applicable utility interconnection standards. Support arc flash labeling, protective device coordination studies, and compliance documentation. Basic Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering with concentration in Power Systems preferred. 8+ years of progressive experience in power generation, switchgear design, and protection systems. Demonstrated ownership of generator paralleling systems and microgrid control strategies. Strong knowledge of medium-voltage distribution systems, typically 4.16 kV through 34.5 kV. Base knowledge of battery energy storage systems and renewable integration into distributed generation environments. Experience designing protective relaying schemes including reverse power, sync-check, and load shed logic. Proven experience leading FAT and SAT activities. PLC configuration and programming experience, Allen Bradley preferred, equivalent industrial PLC platforms acceptable. Proficiency with AutoCAD or equivalent drafting tools. Ability to travel up to 25 percent for client meetings, commissioning, and site visits. Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and fault analysis capability. Clear technical communication skills. High accountability and ownership mindset. #J-18808-Ljbffr
