We are seeking a licensed Project Engineer (PE) in Electrical Engineering who brings strong technical expertise and leadership to the design, development, and execution of power generation projects. This role will lead engineering activities from concept through commissioning, ensuring that all work meets the highest standards of safety, performance, and compliance.

• Lead the full engineering lifecycle of power generation projects—from early scoping through detailed electrical design, procurement support, construction oversight, and commissioning
• Serve as the lead technical and engineering authority, providing PE-level review, stamping (as applicable), and design approval
• Review, develop, and integrate engineering drawings, specifications, and calculations across electrical, mechanical, and controls/SCADA disciplines for systems including natural gas‑fired generation and battery energy storage (BESS)
• Conduct formal electrical design reviews at key milestones (30%, 60%, 90%, IFC) and drive timely resolution of technical comments
• Collaborate with internal teams, external engineers, OEMs, and construction partners to ensure adherence to design requirements, safety standards, performance expectations, and equipment specifications
• Lead technical evaluations of bids and vendor proposals, including switch gear, transformers, protection systems, natural gas reciprocating engines, and instrumentation
• Develop and refine electrical scopes of work, RFQs, design specifications, and engineering procedures
• Evaluate emerging electrical technologies across BESS, natural gas generation, renewables, and distributed energy systems

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or related field
• Active Professional Engineer (PE) license in Electrical Engineering (required)
• 4+ years of engineering experience in power generation, BESS, transmission & distribution, renewables, or related energy sectors
• Deep knowledge of low- and medium‑voltage electrical systems, distribution design, and power equipment
• Proficiency in power generation concepts, load flow, fault analysis, electrical protection, communication protocols, and equipment sizing
• Strong familiarity with applicable codes and standards (e.g., NEC, NESC, IEEE, NFPA)
• Ability to manage competing priorities across multiple projects in a fast‑paced environment
• Legally authorized to work in the U.S., with a valid driver’s license and reliable transportation
