The Staff Engineer (Grade 16) is a fully competent professional engineer who functions as a technical specialist or project level contributor on Mission Critical projects. With minimal supervision, the Staff Engineer applies sound engineering judgment, independently executes most technical tasks, and supports the delivery of medium complexity Federal and Mission Critical electrical systems while continuing to deepen subject matter expertise.

Black & Veatch’s Mission Critical Solution delivers highly reliable, resilient, and secure infrastructure for Federal DoD clients, supporting facilities where power continuity, system redundancy, and mission assurance are essential. We serve clients including USACE, NAVFAC, AFCEC, and other DoD agencies, delivering electrical and power systems for mission‑critical facilities such as command centers, data centers, operational facilities, and energy‑resilient installations. Our primary areas of focus are:
Architecture/Engineering (A/E) Services, Defense Program, Design/Build, and Classified.
