Notice of Result letters will not be sent to applicants who respond to this flyer. Responsibilities You will Serve as the primary Technical Authority and Project Manager for all phases of electrical engineering and construction projects across the installation, providing cradle-to-grave oversight. You will evaluate and approve facility siting, concept planning, and electrical designs, ensuring all new construction and modernizations are fully integrated with the installation's long-term Master Plan and existing utility infrastructure. You will lead technical charrettes, design reviews, and pre-construction conferences with military stakeholders, Architect-Engineer (AE) firms, and contractors to define functional requirements, establish project scopes, and resolve design conflicts. You will conduct rigorous technical reviews of electrical construction drawings, specifications, and design calculations submitted by external contractors. You will ensure strict compliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC), Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC), and Navy safety standards. You will provide expert oversight of electrical construction contracts, which includes developing technical Scopes of Work (SOW), preparing Independent Government Cost Estimates (IGCE). You will evaluate contractor submittals, Requests for Information (RFIs), and proposed change orders. You will oversee the installation's complex electrical infrastructure systems, including medium- and low-voltage power distribution, primary substations, backup generator power systems, fire alarms, and specialized military facility utilities. You will perform on-site construction inspections and quality assurance (QA) checks to verify that contractor execution aligns with approved electrical designs, resolving field engineering issues as they arise. You will act as the principal Electrical Engineering SME for the Public Works Department, providing historical continuity, technical mentorship, and strategic advice to the PWO regarding base utility lifecycles and modernization needs. Requirements Conditions of Employment Qualifications Your resume must also demonstrate at least one year of specialized experience at or equivalent to the GS-09 grade level or pay band in the Federal service or equivalent experience in the private or public sector. Specialized experience must demonstrate the following:1. Interpreting Engineering Principles, and Practices of related to basic engineering discipline with experiences in design and project management. 2. Performs planning and development of construction, modernization, repair and maintenance requirements, scope and specifications for facilities and utility systems. 3. Coordinate reviews of engineering products to ensure products are in compliance with Federal and state policies. Additional qualification information can be found from the following Office of Personnel Management website. Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., professional, philanthropic, religious, spiritual, community, student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. Education Applicants must meet the following basic education requirements of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Qualifications Standards Manual: Successful completion of a professional engineering degree. To be acceptable, the program must: (1) lead to a bachelor's degree (or higher) in a school of engineering with at least one program accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET); or (2) include differential and integral calculus and courses (more advanced than first-year physics and chemistry) in five of the following seven areas of engineering science or physics: (a) statics, dynamics; (b) strength of materials (stress-strain relationships); (c) fluid mechanics, hydraulics; (d) thermodynamics; (e) electrical fields and circuits; (f) nature and properties of materials (relating particle and aggregate structure to properties); and (g) any other comparable area of fundamental engineering science or physics, such as optics, heat transfer, soil mechanics, or electronics. Such education must demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to do the work of the position. OR Current registration as an Engineer Intern (EI), Engineer in Training (EIT), or licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE) by any State, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico. Absent other means of qualifying under this standard, those applicants who achieved such registration by means other than written test (e.g., State grandfather or eminence provisions) are eligible only for positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of their registration For more information about EI and EIT registration requirements, please visit the National Society of Professional Engineers website at: http://www.nspe.org OR. Evidence of having successfully passed the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination or any other written test required for professional registration by an engineering licensure board in the various States, the District of Columbia, Guam, and Puerto Rico The FE examination is not administered by the U. S. Office of Personnel Management. For more information, please visit: http://www.nspe.org/Licensure/HowtoGetLicensed/index.html. OR Successful completion of at least 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences and in engineering that included the courses specified in the basic requirements under paragraph A (above). The courses must be fully acceptable toward meeting the requirements of an engineering program as described in paragraph A (above) OR Successful completion of a curriculum leading to a bachelor's degree in an appropriate scientific field, e.g., engineering technology, physics, chemistry, architecture, computer science, mathematics, hydrology, or geology, may be accepted in lieu of a bachelor's degree in engineering, provided the applicant has had at least one year of professional engineering experience acquired under professional engineering supervision and guidance. Ordinarily, there should be either an established plan of intensive training to develop professional engineering competence, or several years of prior professional engineering-@type experience, e.g., in interdisciplinary positions. Additional Information This position is covered by the Department of Defense Priority Placement Program. Several vacancies may be filled. A tentative offer of employment will be rescinded if the selectee fails to meet the pre-employment requirements, including failure to report to any of the scheduled appointments.
