Electrical Engineer - Energy & Industrial Group

Description

• This position will offer you the opportunity toutilizeand expand your professional and academic background in Electrical Engineering on projects that range from existingpowerplant retrofit projects,new generation installations,renewable energy project,new and existing oil and gas facilities, and other industrial facilities.

• Under the direction of the project lead,you willwork in a project team environment with other engineers and designers involved in the design, modification, and analysis of new and existing power plant and industrial plant electrical systems.

• You will work on challenging assignments that include investigating, troubleshooting, and solving a wide variety of electrical engineering issues.

• You will be involved in power distribution designs and the preparation of specifications for the procurement of major electrical power equipment and related installation services needed to support the projects.

• You will support the project lead in coordinating systems design activities to ensure installation and operations will comply with specifications, codes, and client requirements.

• You will prepare functional design drawings including singleline, relay and metering, cable block, and schematic diagrams. Prepare documentation for design input for other drawing production and 3-D modeling.

• You will prepare detailed calculations, including auxiliary power system studies, voltage drop, protective relay settings, and arc flash calculations.

• Youmayinterface with vendors to prepare bills of material and equipmentpurchasespecifications and provide recommendations to the client.

• You will develop your career via peer-learning by way of S&L’s systems of process and associated “Communities of Practice.”

• There is the potential for you to travel to client and vendor offices for design reviews and to plant site locations for construction coordination and field verification of designs.

This position is based on a hybrid work schedule and will require in-office work 3 days per week.

We do not sponsor employees for work authorization in the U.S. for this position.

Essential skills and experience:

• A BS in Electrical Engineering from an ABET-accredited program isrequiredand an emphasis in power systems, preferred.

• Familiarity with electrical system design including medium and low voltage distribution systems (transformers, generators, motors), and equipment selection.

• Knowledge of design techniques, tools, andprinciplesinvolved in the production of technical plans, drawings, and models.

• Proficiency with MS Office applications.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

• This position may require occasional travel.

Valued but notrequiredskills and experience:

• Successful completion of the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam, and designation as an Engineer in Training(EIT).

• Experience in the design of electrical engineering systems in a project team environment, with a focus on integrated, detailed system design for new plants, or modifications or replacements for existing plants; experience ideally will include the selection of equipment, materials, control philosophy, and the preparation and assembling of calculations and specifications.

• Construction and start-up experience is a plus.

• Experience in preparing engineering design calculations and drawings.

In this role, we expect people to be willing or able to solve problems using modern tools:

• You are expected to take engineering problems from issue to solution using data and modern tools such as automation and AI to improve workflows, reduce rework, and deliver cost-effective designs.
• Many engineers in these roles build or use automation to create calculations, summarize technical documents, or draft design documentation, including appropriate use of agentic AI tools, with strong engineering judgment and verification of results.
• Programming or scripting (e.g., Python, MATLAB, advanced Excel) to automate calculations, design checks, reporting, or data transformation is valued but not required.
• We also value additional learning, such as a minor, certificate, or other training in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence,…
