The Engineering Supervisor position will oversee all engineering functions for Electric Distribution Systems EDS distributing electricity to Campus and UNC Hospitals. This includes the delivery and distribution of electricity from Duke Energy and Cogeneration Systems to four 4 substations on campus. (These substations support the electricity needs throughout the entire campus. Three of the substations are connected using an entirely new technology in high voltage switchgear Gas Insulated Switchgear GIS . This is special stateoftheart switchgear technology the first of its type on the Duke Energy system. Additionally this position is also responsible for the engineering functions in the installation operation and maintenance of all roadways parking lots and area lighting systems on campus (presently comprised of 3.319 lights). Example duties this position will supervise: The University owns and operates an electrical distribution system extending from the substations to each of the individual buildings served. This system is comprised of 988 electric and telecommunication manholes tied together through 43 miles of duct bank containing 79 miles of underground cable and 5 miles of overhead electric lines operating at 12470 volts. The electric energy is delivered using 59 high speed automated switches and 144 manual switches serving 418 transformers. Protective relays in substation breakers high speed switches and 338 power quality meters report to SCADA and metering servers over 60 miles of fiber optic cable via communications switches. Additionally this individual has responsibility in the design design review construction monitoring inspection and management of maintenance repair renovation and new construction projects (including strategic planning for future projects). The incumbent in this position must have expertise in electric system modeling Geographic Information System GIS EDS switching procedures and working knowledge from the IBM Maximo system (work management system) to produce work orders produce sketches and the ability to work with contractors/designers on the EDS system. The Engineering Supervisor position will supervise the Engineering Staff 3 Engineers 1 Energy Utilities Specialist/Advanced (Engineering Technician) and 1 Engineering/Architecture/Advanced (Geographical Information System Specialist) and oversee the Engineering Intern/Coop Programs between other area Universities and Colleges with engineering programs). Duties for this position are performed during normal work hours (Monday through Friday 7am4pm or 8am 5pm). This is a fulltime permanent position. The position must respond to system problems any time outside of the normal work schedule including nights weekends and/or holidays. This is a critical position.
