Electrical Engineer

What You’ll Be Doing

• Perform all aspects of complete designs of small and large electrical and instrumentation engineering assignments using theoretical knowledge and practical design methods.
• Work under general supervision.
• Be familiar with and utilize department design and drafting standards.
• Understand project scope, specifications and design criteria upon assignment to a project task team.
• Recognize and communicate scope and design changes promptly.
• Provide on‑site assistance during startup.
• Produce estimate‑level preliminary designs and material take‑offs suitable for the level of the estimate being performed on a project.
• Produce detailed design calculations and sketches for construction materials associated with the project.
• Prepare calculations neatly for efficient checking by others and for drafting use.
• Design with efficient use of construction materials, emphasizing ease of construction and meeting client expectations.
• Check calculations made by other engineers to ensure accuracy, conformance to codes, specifications, design criteria and good engineering practice.
• Assist the drafting group in resolving routine layout and detailing problems.
• Furnish sufficient sketches and details necessary for completion of engineering drawings.
• Consult with design leaders of other disciplines to ensure smooth flow of vital information for scheduled project completion.
• Advise the senior engineer concerning design or scope changes identified.
• Assist other engineers in developing and assembling scopes, drawings and specifications into a “package,” enabling electrical/instrumentation purchase inquiries for procurement or subcontract pricing.
• Review and check vendor drawings and other discipline drawings for electrical/instrumentation input.
• Develop construction specifications.
• Review fabrication drawings and other construction submittals for conformance to engineering drawings and specifications.
• Perform fieldwork necessary to gather field data, check tie‑ins and provide construction support.
• Provide technical guidance to less experienced drafting and engineering personnel.
• Apply advanced engineering techniques and analysis to complex designs.
• Produce installation details, motor control center single lines, electric room layouts, motor control elementaries, connection diagrams, cable schedules, control panel layouts, grounding, lighting, power and instrumentation plans under general supervision.
• Develop conceptual layouts and cost studies as necessary to determine the simplest, most efficient approach to solving engineering tasks at hand.
• Develop small work‑sharing packages for interoffice execution support.
• Provide virtual team skills and cross‑divisional relationships to support interoffice execution with general supervision.
