Substation Engineer III/Senior

Summary

The Substation Engineering III/Senior- provides technical engineering design economic and analytical support to participate in the development of Transmission and Distribution Substations.

What your day would be like:

You are responsible for:

• Performs engineering tasks requiring skills and experience gained through Substation Design including Civil Electrical Physical Equipment Layout Protection and Control.
• Responsibility for technical decisions and interpretations.
• Provides technical guidance and leadership to others as needed.
• May be subject to shift work.

The kinds of people we want to talk to have done many of the following:

• Preparedengineering plans designs analysis specifications cost estimates evaluations studies technical reviews investigations and verifications.
• Compliedwith design regulatory operating and maintenance requirements.
• Ensuredengineering analyses design project control schedule commitments or oversight work is technically sound cost effective and in compliance with established standards codes and regulations.
• Checkedand reviews analysis evaluations and investigations of others.

Minimum Requirements

Engineer III:

• A four-year Bachelors degree in an engineering discipline or related applied science discipline (see approved list) from an ABET accredited institution an International Engineering Alliance (IEA) recognized institution or an ABET Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) plus five (5) years working experience in Engineering-related positions.

Engineer Senior:

• A four-year Bachelors degree in an engineering discipline or related applied science discipline (see approved list) from an ABET accredited institution an International Engineering Alliance (IEA) recognized institution or an ABET Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) plus eight (8) years working experience in Engineering-related positions.

Approved Engineer degrees: Materials Science/Metallurgy Physics Chemistry Nuclear Electrical Mechanical Civil Electronics Computer Science Environmental Chemical Structural. (A four-year bachelor of Engineering Technology degree is not considered an automatic equivalent for a B.S. degree in Engineering. A review of the degree program curriculum must be completed by Engineering department management.)

Major Accountabilities

1) Prepares engineering plans designs analysis specifications cost estimates evaluations studies technical reviews investigations and with design regulatory operating and maintenance engineering analyses design project control schedule commitments or oversight work is technically sound cost effective and in compliance with established standards codes and and reviews analysis evaluations and investigations of others.

2) Interfaces with customers and other departments to ensure project objectives are understood and that work scope meets customer requirements budget and customers and various levels of management to obtain or present technical the results of designs studies projects (in terms of new techniques) or approaches to subordinates colleagues management and customers.

3) Enhances department performance and productivity and/or unit performance by formulating coordinating performing analysis and making recommendations for improvements. Provides technical assistance and guidance to department personnel to enhance department performance and productivity.

4) May provide oversight of engineering technical programs by managing the program requirements working with cross organizational partners reviewing and internalizing operating experience and coordinating corrective actions to ensure engineering program elements continue to remain healthy.

5) May assume responsibility for small- to medium-scale projects which include planning designing scheduling and coordinating all facets of the potential schedule or quality problems and initiates corrective initiative to eliminate barriers and uses resources to ensure desired interface with outside agencies and regulatory authorities.

6) Provides technical guidance and leadership to less experienced engineers.

7) May participate in developing long-range strategies for significant site problems.

8) Provides input to projects and recommends modifications to increase operating efficiency and/or reviews design and documentation of projects to ensure compliance with design specifications schedules and any regulatory requirements.

9) Remains cognizant of current technology and engineering developments as well as industry and competitive developments.
