Electrical Engineer

Job Title:

Senior Electrical Engineer

Job Description

The Electrical Engineer leads the design, development, and delivery of grid‑scale and distributed energy storage projects. This role owns electrical designs from early concept through final product release, supporting both internal product development and external customer projects. The engineer collaborates closely with multidisciplinary teams and serves as a technical leader, mentor, and subject matter expert in the product, contributing directly to the advancement of sustainable storage solutions.

Responsibilities

* Own the electrical design of product's systems for base products from early development through final product release.

* Develop conceptual layouts, one‑line diagrams, and detailed electrical designs for grid‑scale BESS projects through Issue for Construction (IFC) design packages.

* Produce detailed electrical engineering designs for microgrid and distributed energy resource projects.

* Evaluate, analyze, and compare energy storage technologies, products, and vendors, and support technology and vendor selection and implementation.

* Develop and review engineering design plans, technical specifications, cost estimates, and construction documents at various design milestones.

* Prepare clear and comprehensive written technical reports explaining battery energy storage concepts, feasibility studies, and use‑case analyses for diverse audiences.

* Participate in meetings with clients, contractors, vendors, and internal stakeholders to support project execution and business development activities.

* Provide construction‑phase technical support, including preparing bid addenda, reviewing submittals, responding to RFIs, developing construction progress reports, and supporting change orders.

* Coordinate closely with civil, structural, fire and life safety, power systems, and SCADA teams or contractors to deliver complete IFC design packages.

* Participate in design reviews with internal stakeholders, governing agencies, and authorities having jurisdiction (AHJs).

* Serve as a technical mentor and counselor to junior engineering staff, providing guidance and support for their professional development.

* Coordinate project workloads to ensure on‑time delivery of high‑quality engineering documents.

* Conduct quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) reviews of work performed by other engineers, designers, and technicians.

* Provide technical assistance and subject‑matter expertise on battery energy storage systems to internal teams and external customers as needed.

* Support the development and continuous improvement of internal engineering design guidelines, catalogs, and templates, including direct contributions to technical, R&D, and project development documents.

* Support grid integration by designing systems that transition power from distribution lines into the storage system and back to the grid, ensuring reliable and safe operation.

Essential Skills

* Bachelor's degree in Engineering from an ABET‑accredited program or equivalent accredited agency, with 8+ years of proven experience; a mix of education and applicable experience will be considered.

* Strong fundamentals in electrical and mechanical principles.

* Experience in power systems engineering with a focus on low‑voltage (LV) and medium‑voltage (MV) installations.

* Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics and mechanical drawings.

* Experience completing at least one battery energy storage system (BESS) installation from start to finish involving multiple technical stakeholders.

* Proficiency with one or more drafting software packages for creating one‑line diagrams and site construction layouts.

* Ability to work effectively in cross‑functional, fast‑paced engineering environments with minimal oversight or direction.

* Electrical engineering and power system design experience, including grid integration and transitioning power between distribution lines, storage systems, and the grid.

* Systems‑level thinking with the ability to optimize products across disciplines and technical domains.

* Ability to interpret engineering deliverable content and assess its impact on construction…
