Apply applicable NEC, NFPA 70E, IEEE, and ANSI requirements and participate in electrical safety, hazard, and design reviews.

Produce and review design calculations, technical specifications, procurement packages, vendor submittals, and construction documentation.

Provide technical leadership during construction, troubleshooting, testing, energization, and commissioning activities in the field and at vendor facilities.

Strong working knowledge of NEC, NFPA 70E, IEEE, and applicable ANSI requirements for industrial electrical power systems.

Experience with power-system analysis tools such as ETAP, EasyPower, or SKM for short-circuit, coordination, arc-flash, and load-flow studies.

Demonstrated understanding of protective relaying, relay settings, CT/PT selection, breaker protection, and coordination of medium- and high-voltage systems.

Working knowledge of SCADA, PLC, metering, and control interfaces associated with switchgear and protective relaying is helpful.

Strong troubleshooting, technical judgment, documentation, and communication skills, with the ability to lead electrical design activities and work across engineering disciplines.
