Our platform AI provider may use the content we send it, your profile and the job posting, to improve its models. We never sell your data. If you bring your own AI provider key, requests go directly to your provider under their terms.

Technical Director – Multidisciplinary Power Engineering at Electric Power Engineers, Austin, TX

Technical Director – Multidisciplinary Power Engineering at Electric Power Engineers in Austin, TX. Full-time. Est. up to $250k. Apply with swipeandhired.

We are designing the grid of the future!
The Technical Director – Multidisciplinary Power Engineering will provide senior technical leadership across the planning, design, review, and delivery of power generation, substation, and grid infrastructure projects. This role requires a broad and practical understanding of all major engineering disciplines involved in project execution, including civil, structural, high-voltage electrical, medium-voltage electrical, protection and control, SCADA, and telecommunications.
This leader will be responsible for evaluating design completeness, technical quality, constructability, and discipline-to-discipline coordination across all project phases. The ideal candidate understands not only each discipline’s scope, but also the full design process: what information is required before each discipline can begin work, what deliverables each discipline must produce, and how those outputs support downstream engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, and operations.
This is a highly visible leadership role requiring strong technical judgment, multidisciplinary coordination, and the ability to communicate clearly with clients, developers, OEMs, EPC contractors, investors, and internal engineering teams.

Responsibilities

How you can make an impact :

Lead integrated multidisciplinary engineering efforts across generation, substation, and grid interconnection projects.
Serve as the senior technical authority across civil, structural, HV electrical, MV electrical, protection and control, SCADA, and telecommunications disciplines.
Evaluate design maturity, technical completeness, and constructability at each phase of project development and execution.
Identify missing inputs, scope gaps, interface risks, and sequencing issues before they affect schedule, cost, procurement, construction, or commissioning.
Guide internal teams and clients through complex technical decisions with practical, risk-based recommendations.
Strengthen EPE’s technical leadership in power engineering by promoting consistency, quality, and cross-functional collaboration.
Support strategic growth by building trusted client relationships and expanding technical advisory capabilities.

Key responsibilities

Lead multidisciplinary technical reviews for power generation, substation, and balance-of-plant projects from early development through IFC design.
Assess discipline interdependencies and confirm each engineering team has the required inputs, assumptions, criteria, and upstream information needed to begin work.
Verify that discipline deliverables are complete, coordinated, and sufficiently developed to support downstream design, procurement, permitting, construction, commissioning, and operations.
Review engineering packages for technical quality, consistency, constructability, and alignment with project objectives .
Identify and communicate technical, execution, and interface risks across civil, structural, electrical, controls, and communication scopes.
Resolve or escalate design conflicts between disciplines and support timely decision-making.
Provide senior oversight of design basis documents, technical narratives, drawing packages, equipment integration, and major engineering deliverables.
Work closely with project managers and discipline leads to support planning, resource alignment, deliverable quality, and schedule adherence.
Support owner’s engineering, independent engineering, design reviews, and technical due diligence assignments as needed.
Lead technical discussions with clients, developers, lenders, OEMs, EPC contractors, and other external stakeholders.
Contribute to proposals, project scoping, technical approach documents, and strategic business development efforts.
Refine and maintain technical standards, review tools, lessons learned, and best-practice guidance across multidisciplinary engineering activities.
Mentor engineers and technical leads, fostering a culture of collaboration, accountability, and engineering excellence.
Represent EPE in external meetings, conferences, industry working groups, and professional organizations.

What success looks like in this role

Multidisciplinary engineering packages are well coordinated and technically sound.
Discipline teams receive the right information at the right time to execute efficiently.
Design gaps, interface issues, and constructability concerns are identified early.
Clients view EPE as a trusted technical advisor for complex power infrastructure projects.
Internal teams operate with stronger consistency, better cross-discipline alignment, and higher-quality deliverables.
Projects are better positioned for successful permitting, procurement, construction, commissioning, and long-term operation.
