Ampacity is building out a full electrical distribution offering - cable, grounding, conduit, terminations, and everything else needed for a kitted electrical solution - and we need a Design Engineer to help lead it.
You’ll independently design, review, and sign off on electrical deliverables for live utility-scale solar projects: sizing MV cable and collection systems, building BOM packages, leading design reviews. You’ll work directly with our PE-licensed Electrical Engineering Manager, with real ownership from day one – not just execution under close supervision.
If you want to shape how a growing company builds its design processes and tooling, not just draft to spec, this is that role.
Pay Range: $90,000-$100,000
What You’ll Do- Independently review electrical drawings and develop electrical deliverable packages for utility-scale solar projects, ensuring accuracy and completeness
- Lead design reviews using internal checklists and quality processes, with authority to sign off on deliverables
- Size and select harnesses, MV cable, and collection system components with minimal oversight
- Apply relevant codes and standards (NEC, IEEE) to project-specific design decisions
- Collaborate with the structural design team to drive coordinated value engineering across electrical and structural scopes
- Contribute to internal design tools and standardized processes (e.g., the team’s BOM tool ) and he lp mentor junior team members as the department grows
- This role will evolve over time with the needs of the business.
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
- 3-5 years of electrical design experience, with direct utility-scale solar experience required
- Working knowledge of BOS components (cable, harnesses, combiners) and relevant NEC articles (690, 691)
- Track record developing accurate BOMs and collaborating across structural/interdisciplinary teams
- Strong attention to detail, organization, and written/verbal communication
- Proficient in Excel; comfortable picking up new internal tools
- Able to work independently and own deliverables with minimal oversight
- Drafting experi ence (AutoCAD, etc.)
- Experience with solar design software ( PVFarm , Plant Predict , PVCase , PVsyst, etc.)
- EIT or PE licensure, or active pursuit
- Scripting experience (Python, etc.) a huge plus
- Background at a…
