We are an organization of nearly 700 men and women dedicated to deliver safe, reliable, and cost-effective generation to California in an environmentally responsible manner. As an integral and active member of the company team, Power Generation contributes to PG&E's goal of becoming the leading utility in the United States.

Position Summary

The Engineer Rotation Development Program position is an 18-month rotation program that provides engineers an opportunity to gain meaningful engineering experience in up to three departments within Power Generation focused on improving PG&E's network of electric generating facilities.

Successful candidates will be interviewed for an Associate Project Engineer position in a location based on the business needs of Power Generation.
