Salary/year, Job Shift: First Shift, ELECTRICAL APPLICATIONS ENGINEER-POWER GENERATION
Central Power Systems & Services is a privately held company with deep roots dating back to 1954. We are a growing organization serving the Critical Power market through the design, manufacturing, integration, installation, and support of power generation systems.
Our mission is forging long-lasting partnerships by providing first-class customer support. We accomplish this by combining industry expertise, innovative technology, quality products, and exceptional people to deliver reliable power solutions for our customers.
As we continue to grow, we are looking for an experienced Electrical Engineer who wants to do more than produce designs and hand them off.
This is an opportunity to own electrical solutions from application and design through manufacturing, testing, commissioning, and field support.
For the right engineer, this position offers the opportunity to relocate to the Kansas City area and become a key technical contributor within a growing power generation organization. We are prepared to offer a competitive compensation package, including relocation assistance, for an exceptional candidate whose experience aligns with our needs.
If you are an electrical engineer with experience in power generation, electrical power systems, data centers, industrial power, or complex electrical design, this may be an opportunity to take your career in a new direction.
The OpportunityThe Applications Electrical Engineer will play a key role in the electrical design and application of generator systems and associated power equipment.
This position is ideal for an engineer who enjoys solving real-world electrical challenges and wants to see their designs move from engineering drawings to built, tested, energized equipment.
You will work closely with Engineering, Manufacturing, Production, Quality, Service, Sales, and Operations to develop solutions that are technically sound, manufacturable, reliable, and aligned with customer requirements.
Unlike a traditional consulting engineering role, you will have the opportunity to work directly with the equipment and the people building it—troubleshooting problems on the manufacturing floor, participating in testing and validation, influencing product design, and seeing projects through implementation.
What You'll Do Electrical & Power Systems Design- Design and develop electrical systems for diesel and natural gas generator sets, generator controls, switch gear, distribution systems, and related power generation equipment.
- Develop electrical schematics, one-line diagrams, wiring diagrams, control drawings, panel layouts, and electrical documentation.
- Design and review electrical power distribution systems associated with generator applications.
- Perform electrical load calculations, voltage drop calculations, fault-current analysis, and other engineering calculations as required.
- Evaluate generator, switch gear, distribution, controls, protection, and auxiliary electrical systems to ensure proper application and integration.
- Select and specify electrical components, controls, protection devices, instrumentation, and other system components.
- Review customer requirements, project specifications, electrical drawings, and technical documentation to develop appropriate engineering solutions.
- Support the application of generator systems to commercial, industrial, data center, healthcare, utility, and other critical-power applications.
- Translate customer requirements and project specifications into practical electrical solutions.
- Review project requirements and…
