Evaluate the impacts of design changes across multiple disciplines and recommend technically sound and cost-effective solutions.
Perform Quality Control reviews of physical design deliverables for smaller projects.
Support proposal development efforts by providing drawing counts, scope input, manhour estimates, and technical support for substation physical engineering activities.
Assist in the development and continuous improvement of engineering processes, design standards, and best practices to enhance project execution efficiency.
Maintain accurate project records, calculations, and design files while ensuring a high level of organization and attention to detail.
Continue to expand technical knowledge of substation physical design, equipment applications, industry standards, and utility practices.
Develop and deliver technical presentations and knowledge-sharing sessions to support team development and training initiatives.
Provide engineering support during procurement, construction, commissioning, and field execution activities, including responding to RFIs, reviewing vendor drawings, and supporting field personnel.
Support company goals and represent the organization professionally with clients, contractors, and project stakeholders.

Demonstrated experience developing substation physical design packages for transmission and distribution substations.
Knowledge of outdoor substation equipment and layouts, including power transformers, circuit breakers, disconnect switches, instrument transformers, surge arresters, bus systems, steel structures, grounding systems, and associated station equipment.
Experience performing substation physical engineering calculations and applying utility design standards and industry codes.
Familiarity with electric utility infrastructure and the principles involved in substation physical engineering and EPC project execution.
Experience with engineering software and design tools such as AutoCAD, MicroStation, Bentley OpenUtilities, CDEGS, STAAD, MathCAD, or similar industry-standard applications.
Experience supporting Engineering, Procurement & Construction (EPC) turnkey projects for electric utilities.

Preferred, but not Required:

Proficiency with Bentley ProjectWise data management system.
Experience in 3D design application like AutoDesk Inventor
Professional Engineer (PE) License
Understanding of Protection & Control systems and the interface between physical and P&C design.
Experience supporting greenfield, brownfield, expansion, and retrofit substation projects.
Knowledge of grid scale battery energy storage technology and applications.
Knowledge of applicable industry standards including IEEE, NESC, NEC, and utility-specific design practices.

Professional Attributes that will help you succeed in this role:
