Electrical Engineer

Position: Electrical Engineer 1/2
** What You Will Do*
* Are you a talented and driven electrical engineer looking to apply your expertise in support of nuclear, accelerator or non-nuclear facilities? Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), a premier national security science laboratory, is seeking a skilled Electrical Engineer to join our Engineering Services (ES) Division, primarily focused on non-nuclear facilities.

In this pivotal role, you will:

+ Develop electrical details, design/analysis calculations, specifications, etc. that incorporate the applicable design requirements for facility projects.

+ Contribute to the implementation of the Conduct of Engineering (COE) program, ensuring systems, structures, and components are properly modified and installed across our 38-square-mile campus.

+ Support the Laboratory's vital scientific and national security mission by leveraging your electrical engineering expertise.

+ Work collaboratively with cross-functional teams to design, analyze, and troubleshoot electrical systems for facilities.

+ Ensure compliance with all relevant safety, security, and quality standards.

+ Support Breaker Maintenance team by assisting electricians to trouble shoot issues found on equipment during maintenance on rotating evening shifts.

+ Perform Power System Engineering Studies including Short Circuit, Device Coordination, Equipment Sizing, and Arc Flash for both medium and low voltage equipment.

As part of our design agency serving the Engineering Services Utilities Project Delivery (ES-UPD) Division, you will function as a vital member of multiple design teams, shaping LANL's facilities and infrastructure to serve the needs of our growing and changing Laboratory. In this pivotal role, you will provide engineering consulting services across all project phases, including scoping, design, construction, commissioning, and

operations.

If you are an electrical engineer with a passion for facility maintenance/design and a drive to make a meaningful impact, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Join us in pushing the boundaries of science and technology in service of our nation.

This position will be filled at Engineer 1/Engineer 2 level depending on the skills of the selected candidate. Additional job responsibilities (outlined below) will be assigned if the candidate is hired at the higher level.

** Electrical Engineer Level 1 ($96,600 - $158,000)*
* Key responsibilities and benefits of this level 1 role include (but are not limited to):

** Learning & Growth*
* + Learn from experienced electrical engineers and their in-depth knowledge of various construction methods and electrical systems.

+ Learn how to be an effective and contributing member of a design team.

+ Learn and gain expertise in state-of-the-art electrical design software.

+ Learn how to navigate and implement prevailing industry codes and standards.

** Mission Impact*
* + See how your engineering skills can contribute to national security.

** Design & Engineering*
* + See your ideas come to life on paper and in construction.

+ Gain expertise in the development of design deliverables including drawings, specifications, test and inspection plans (TIPs), and calculations.

** Electrical Engineer Level 2 ($106,400 - $176,000)*
* In addition to what was outlined at the level 1 position, as an Electrical Engineer 2 you will have the opportunity to:

+ Develop skills to independently run all electrical engineering facets of a project from scoping to construction.

+ Foster relationships with project stakeholders and customers as a representative of Engineering Services.

+ Facilitate technical growth of the electrical design team.

** What You Need*
* ** Minimum

Job Requirements:

*
* + Ability to prepare calculations, apply engineering methods, and apply technology aided engineering tools to facility and operations-based engineering challenges.

+ Ability to support timely and collaborative construction execution. This includes timely review of submittals, requests for information (RFIs), design changes, non-conformance issues, validation of commissioning documentation and produce accurate as-built documents.

+ Basic knowledge of engineering principles, codes, and standards (NEC, NFPA, IEEE, etc.).

+

Working experience in power system engineering, including fault current analysis, voltage drop calculations, protection coordination studies, incident energy studies and equipment sizing.

** In addition to the requirements outlined above, qualification at the higher level requires:*
