About the Role
As an Electrical Design Engineer, you will own the electrical design documentation for islanded behind-the-meter microgrids, translating architecture into a buildable plant. You will size system components and produce technical inputs for the Engineer of Record, working under the Director of Power Systems Engineering.
Responsibilities
- Create and maintain electrical single-line and three-line diagrams, wiring schedules, and system schematics for islanded BTM microgrids.
- Size conductors, OCPD, disconnects, and switchgear across MV/LV and DC collection in compliance with NEC, UL 1741-SB, UL 9540, and NFPA 855.
- Produce the basis-of-design and technical inputs for the Engineer of Record, and coordinate their review and stamp.
- Develop equipment layouts and DC collection designs for ground-mount PV + BESS.
- Maintain the drawing set through revisions, ensuring procurement, the EOR, and field execution use a single source of truth.
- Support OEM technical evaluation with necessary electrical inputs for selection and purchase orders.
- Track FEOC-compliant equipment options for ITC eligibility.
Requirements
- BSEE, power systems, or related STEM discipline.
- 3+ years in utility-scale solar, BESS, or power-systems design, with hands-on ownership of SLDs/three-lines and equipment sizing.
- Proficiency in electrical CAD (AutoCAD Electrical or similar) and a power-system study tool (SKM, ETAP, CYME, or similar).
- Strong understanding of NEC, NESC, IEEE standards.
- Working knowledge of UL 1741-SB, UL 9540/9540A, and NFPA 855 for PV and energy-storage integration.
- Experience with conductor, OCPD, disconnect, and switchgear sizing across DC, LV, and MV (34.5 kV class).
- Experience producing basis-of-design and working to or with an Engineer of Record.
- Extreme attention to detail with a bias for speed and rapid iteration.
